Hey there, i'm fairly new to VaS and i'm the process of ordering my fleet but i 'm a little confused about something.

I'm trying to make a list of ships and their navwar 1/3000 serial numbers to figure out what to order but i can't seem to find the submarines.

(1942) Kadai-7-class submarine
(1940) Hei-Gata-class Submarine

Here is what i found but i have no idea which is which :)
Any help would be most welcome.

I-400 CLASS x 2
Code - N5601
Date - 1944

I-15 CLASS x 3
Code - N5602
Class - 20 Date - 1938

I-16 CLASS x 3
Code - N5603
Date - 1938

I-176 CLASS x 4
Code - N5604
Class - 10 Date - 1942

Ro-35 CLASS x 4
Code - N5605
Class - 18 Date - 1943
 
The "Kadai-7" is the same as the I-176, whilst the "Hei Gata" is the same as the I-16.

I've statted up the I-400 - hopefully the subject of a future S&P article once OOB is out.
 
Thanks i can now get to the ordering part :)

I'm thinking of getting this fleet

x1 N5508 Fubuki (2 by blister)
x1 N5604 Kadai-7 (4 by blister)

x1 N5504 Kagero (2 by blister)
x2 N5305 Aoba
x1 N5317 Nagara (2 by blister)

x1 N5204 Shokaku
x1 n5303 Takao

x1 n5105a Nagato

x1 n5101 Yamato


It's just a fleet to try the game a little further, It'll probably grow over time :)

Might take 2 carriers right away tho, i just love those :D



Hm another question tho, can't seem to find those two either :

(1926) Furutaka-class cruiser
(1942) Sendai-class cruiser
 
I can help ya there. I bought the Jintsu class as these were the same ship. Or rather the Sendai was the name of a ship in the class. 1.50 for 3 I believe. As for the Furataka, use the Kako model. Mind you saying that I did notice that Navwar do a figure for both the Kako and Furataka which were the two ships in this class.

Must admit your fleet choice is pretty good though being a Jap player myself I would recomend a Sendai or two.
 
Thanks for the help !
I might order some sendais next time


In the end i ordered this :

x2 N5508 Fubuki (2 by blister)
x1 N5604 Kadai-7 (4 by blister)

x1 N5504 Kagero (2 by blister)
x2 N5305 Aoba
x1 N5317 Nagara (2 by blister)

x2 N5204 Shokaku
x2 n5303 Takao

x1 n5105a Nagato

x1 n5101 Yamato

I needed a second carrier, i just love those :D
The fleet should be good enough to playtest the game, then i'll prolly order everything i don't have yet when OoB is released :)

Then i'll turn my attention to the germans !
