OOC Discussion about Navies

[HOE]

OOC: 5 aircraft carriers? How large navy does denmark have?

[Danish Commonwealth]

OOC: Huge.  Remember, you're putting together the navies of Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway.

[HOE]

OCC: But they are small, when they were the biggest in the late 1940s the nordic countries put togeather had 1 aircraft cruiser. The US have a total of 6 nimitz class carriers..

OOC:  Well, I hate to keep this OOC battle going, but the lot were purchased by the Danes a long time ago when a few nations were still stable.  They've been steadily being sold and transferred between the Hey Dudians, Warlordians, Wrexvians, Danes, Swedish, you name it... they keep moving... read... like I continue to say... read.

[HOE]

ooc: dident have to make it a own thread since i cant continu the argument when i havent read all the trade threads.

[Danish Commonwealth]

It was changed to a separate thread because we need to make it clear what the division is and have a discussion with Warlordia.

[Warlordia]

Well, Denmark's been about for quite a while and always put emphasis on the navy since that was the only way to ever reach anyone since a swarm of Russias and Germanies kept collapsing before anyone ever got a chance to interact with them in any way whatsoever...

So 5 carriers may seem very expensive but if you take into account that the Danish Commonwealth has had a combined economy for (in-game) decades if not more and never began starving it's armed forces like Sweden 5 carriers are not too extreme.

Extreme, yes.
A heavy burden on the Danish naval budget? Yessir!
Impossible? Nope.

So, as War Moderator I say it is OK.

If you think thats big.. look at Zulu's navy.. it's unbelievable.

Actually Zulu can do that, its perfectly fine. Zulu relies solely on their navy because they are mostly water.
