Unique Ships

I have been thinking about the interviening period between WW1 and WW2 and the unique assortment of ships and technologies that appeared there. Specifically there was a number of attempts by various nations to create ships that would be able to fulfill roles they thought would be vital in the future. For example we have ships that are coverted to be able to hold extra seaplanes for scouting missions. This of course is made obsolete by the advent of radar which doesn't need good weather or fuel to work. I am wondering if the Enigma team is considering adding in any of these type of unique ships? Maybe such items wouldn't be for people to use, merely to encounter Or prehaps they might be able to use them if they had managed to complete some various hard to reach goals. Anyhow here are some examples of the types of ships I mean.

M2 Submarine Carrier

Submarine Cruiser

Pocket Battleships

Q-Ships

Aren't there already Q-ships in ERT?

I'd LOVE to see the Japanese I-400's myself.

You'd know one was out there if you spotted/shot down a M6A.

There is a vast potential of unique bizarre and sunique ships that are possible here. Enigma is a different time line and all so we can have a bit of leeway with technology and be creative. Say for example.... Carrier technology hasn't progressed as rapidly, so planes are not as easy to use or as effective as they were in our era. That would mean that the very large carriers would appear later on, giving the Engima world more time to expirement with how plane will actually be used. Maybe creating a submarine that was completely devoted to being a small carrier instead of a submarine that had a seaplane container welded onto the deck. Prehaps the lack of airpower will force the Enigma world to develop wiire guided or radio guided torpedos far faster then normal. Hell! They might even come up with Voltron!

What? No body has a bizarre ship or wacky design they want to see out there? No one wants to see double hulled or triple hulled catamarans with guns? No one wants to see sail powered submarines?

ok here is one:

an ship dressed up like an tanker of some sort in hidden location it can launch like four pt boats, and the ship it"s self has cannon mg and torp tubes the attack along with the pt boats

Thanks

It's probably too early, but how about amphibious vehicles?

I could see a sub commander trying to impede an invasion of an island by torpedoing troop carrying landing craft.

East, is there any chance of that?

or maybe a couple of early, early, early detroyers (pre-ww1 and ww1).

Those ships sometimes carried 1 or 2 PT boats.

Hmmm....should I post what I know....or just wait till you read about it and then point and say "There."

PT boat tenders = fabulous idea.

1-400 type submarines = fabulous idea.

Crimson Skies/Akron/Macon plane-launching zeppelins: fabulous idea (certainly historically possible), but not likely

Oh, I greatly disagree there.

Zeppelins should be included in Enigma, especially since land will be introduced. While most incidents of a military nature involving Zeppelins occured in WW1 (bombings etc), many WW1 vessels appear in Enigma.

I'd be disappointed if they didn't appear in some way (at least as scouts) in future chapters.
