Start off with my Destroyer, it is well small, I normaly build to whatever my maximum available tonage is but I decided in this case maximum numbers was more important than building an "ideal" ship. Only going to bother posting the 333 ton one, as they are absolutly identical accept for the one ton added to make the other one weigh 334 tons (what im OCD like that I wanted 3 to be 1 BP even). 1.04 seakeaping is sorta meh for me but IDK hell they only weigh 333 tons...

First Class Armoured Frigate, it wasnt honestly the ship I intended to build... but needs must and all that. Honestly I like it (even though I was intending to break with my traditional AQY layout), it works and it fits (much to my actual amazement) it started out as a "I wonder what I could do if I kicked this thing up another thousand tons" type project. I have a semi sorta kinda started drawing of it...

You dont get 1900 engines until 1898 laydown. We are still covering the research times in pre-start, you just don't have to pay for them.

not a big deal, 1895 was a randomly selected laydown year. I think I have the slips/docks anyway to lay them all down from 1898 on. I dont think it will even make a diference to preformance/weights. Honestly if that is the only error I made, I am kinda impressed with myself (even if I did build them all with the rules page open).
Stuffing to much into the 1898-1899 period might elicit some grumbling. Try not to overpack it.
Sorta a problem for the Dutch Navy (Belgium didnt have one worth bothering with honestly) they built like everything "modern" from like 1897-1902 (laydown dates obviously) before that it was like right at our PoD (and a bunch of wood hulled sailing/steam stuff I couldnt be botherd to sim)

Fair enough, but it could seem a bit gamey to get modern engines on everything.
I am actualy working on the PC right now, I think I can make it work still with 1890 engines (seriously it had 1895 as the engine year to start with), and there are actualy more of them than anything (well accept the DDs but who counts DDs).

Can you point me to the 6" gun you used for this? I dont recall any L45s being in use this early, most of us have L40s on our early ships.
Oh Damn, good catch, I just forgot to change them when I kicked it back 5 years. I was concentrating on making sure the engine and everything was right and compleatly forgot to change the guns. Let me fix that and I will repost it.

50 tons Misc Weight Torps and "stuff"
that does it, Im adding a big notice saying not to use the built-in torp function. Its bugged to shit. Use the Misc weight rules.
I dont think it has ever worke right in Spring Sharp... I always just used the misc weight route, and put the tubes in to show more or less where they were.
