Just curious because I haven't seen another thread about it since the demo one.

Btw, for those that do have it, on the official forums, there was thread asking if they were going to add more units and one of the devs just posted this today:

The Super Yamato

I "aquired" it. Japanese campain is fun, USA compain on other hand is quite boring (well, for me).

As for Super Yamato...it was war-proven that Yamato's main battery caliber was already overkill...what was the point to put 6(or 8 - dunno if theres turret D) even more bigger guns? Yamato lacked speed to operate with aircraft carriers and engage them, artillery radar and advanced AA guns (possibly those 3.9" developed for Akizuki class destroyer). Also, japanese 25mm standart AA guns sucked compared to both Bofors and Oerlikon...so tbh, Yamato had much more things to improve apart from main battery.

I also "acquired" it but how did you get around the Games for Windows thing? Or do you just not save your games?

I figured the full game was awesome enough that I'd want to keep my shit so I went out to Target and bought it one day.

Wow, imagine getting directly hit from a barrage of those 20.1" guns.

That ship would've been crazy if they really built it, then again they're all just giant floating targets for aircraft anyway...

It's a good thing they're probably putting in the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montana_class_battleship]Montana class[/b] to counter it or the Iowa would definitely not be able to stand a chance in battleships duels.

The Montana is going to have a whole nother 16"/50 x3 turret over the the Iowa.

Can't you just create an offline account? I set mine up when I played DOW2 and it just used the same account on Battlestations.

This, but I made mine for FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage and since then I havent had any problems with Games for Windows, either legal or torrented ones.

They released new units in the Mustang Pack but the Windows Live marketplace is being a piece of shit right now.
