Description: As with my French thread, I have noticed a few minor issues with the German naval OOB. There are not many, but I thought I'd report them anyway.

- (36 & 39) the light cruiser Leipzig should be light_cruiser_2 and not light_cruiser_1; it is the lead ship of its class and so it seems strange for it to not make use of this tech;
Code:ship = { name = "Leipzig" definition = light_cruiser equipment = { light_cruiser_2 = { amount = 1 owner = GER } } }
The localization for GER_light_cruiser_2 should be changed from Nürnberg Class to Leipzig Class, which is what the description actually refers to. Leipzig was the lead ship in the class, hence the name. Nürnberg was her sister ship. Despite the minor differences between the two vessels, it doesn't make sense for them to be different naval techs.
Code:GER_light_cruiser_2:0 "Leipzig Class" GER_light_cruiser_2_desc:0 "The Leipzig-class light cruisers were built between 1928 and 1935 as improvements over the preceding Königsberg-class cruisers. They displaced over 8,100 tons, had adequate speed and range, and were armed with nine 15cm SK C/25 guns in their main armament."
- (36 & 39) the localization for GER_battleship_1 should be changed from Schleissen Class (an actual typo in the files) to Deutschland Class, which is what the description actually calls them. The correct spelling for the current name would be Schlesien Class, which did not exist.
I don't think it really matters that there are two Deutschland classes, because they are for different types of ship (modern heavy cruiser and obsolete battleship) and the 'Pocket Battleship' Deutschland-class does not appear on the naval tech tree as it is a special variant.
Code:GER_battleship_1:0 "Deutschland Class" GER_battleship_1_desc:0 "Following the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was allowed to retain six pre-dreadnought battleships. Classified as Linienschiffe (Ships of the Line) by the Kriegsmarine, only two ships of the Deutschland-class, not to be confused with the later Deutschland-class Pocket Battleships, remained in active service through the 1930s. At 04:47 on September 1, 1939, Schleswig-Holstein fired the first shots of World War II as she opened fire on the Westerplatte base in Danzig, Poland."
- (36 & 39) the Admiral Graf Spee is missing the first part of its name:
Code:ship = { name = "Admiral Graf Spee" definition = heavy_cruiser equipment = { heavy_cruiser_1 = { amount = 1 owner = GER version_name = "Deutschland Class" } } }
Code:# CA: "Admiral Graf Spee" add_equipment_production = { equipment = { type = heavy_cruiser_1 creator = "GER" version_name = "Deutschland Class" } requested_factories = 1 progress = 0.95 amount = 1 }
- (39) the Blücher was the sister ship to the Admiral Hipper, and is 90% complete in 1939, whereas the Prinz Eugen was made to a modified design (as were the Seydlitz & Lützow) which is represented in-game as a newer naval tech, and so we can reflect that by editing the GER 1939 construction queue:
Code:# CA: "Blücher" add_equipment_production = { equipment = { type = heavy_cruiser_2 creator = "GER" } requested_factories = 1 progress = 0.90 amount = 1 } # CA: Admiral Hipper-class, Prinz Eugen variant (x3) ("Prinz Eugen" "Seydlitz" "Lützow") add_equipment_production = { equipment = { type = heavy_cruiser_3 creator = "GER" } requested_factories = 1 progress = 0.15 amount = 3 }
They will now be built as the correct classes.
- (39) there are some minor fleet name typos, which I have fixed below:
# WilhemshavenCode:name = "Hochseeflotte"
# WilhemshavenCode:name = "Aufklärungsflotte"
# KielCode:name = "Zerstörerflotte"
# KielCode:name = "Ausbildungflottille"
In all cases, fleets with 'U-Boots Flottille' in their name should instead read:
As you can see, Germans don't like putting spaces between words.Code:name = "Unterseebootsflotte"
- Finally, not navy related but not really worth a separate thread; in the 1936 GER scenario file, the 'SS Division' template name should be hyphenated:
Code:name = "SS-Division"
This is standard with German division naming, and you will notice all other division templates use it. Don't forget to change it here, too:
Code:division= { name = "SS-Verfügungstruppe" location = 11505 division_template = "SS-Division" start_experience_factor = 0.3 }
