I know that mostly all of the buzz regarding ch2 has to do with cruisers, BBs, carriers, etc., but what changes/additions can we expect by way of smaller vesells?

..also perhaps liners etc. that have been converted into transports. Maybe troop transports as well....

and 2-3 different classes of destroyer per faction would be neat.

Absolutely!

Some of White Star's Titanic class vessels were converted for military and Red Cross use. Being able to snk the Brittanic or Olympic and see her go down like in the movie would be damned cool. :D

olympic was converted, but sorry, mate, britannic sank in WW1! ...although, i do belive the mauritania (lustania's sister ship) was converted for troop transportation... and, since lusitania still lives in E:RT, maybe she will be in the game as well! 8-)

One out of two ain't bad. ;)

Still, you get my meaning. It would be cool to see one go screws up like that.

As i said in my post about the lusitainia the cunard liners were designed, and part paid for by the Admiraltry, with the purpose that they would be turned into cruisers in the event of war. They were faster then any of the ships in the royal navy during WW1
