Description
The planned Lexington Class battlecruiser form of the newly added Saratoga in Kantai Collection. Due to the Washington Naval Treaty, she like Kaga and Akagi was converted into the carrier form that everyone knows and loves. I kept the outfit very similar to her standard one with only minor changes.ΒThe armament is based off the second revision of the design with eight 16" guns in four turrets (as opposed to ten 14" guns). Secondaries are 6"/53 casemates (and derpy handgun that is a crude combination of an M1911 pistol and on of these 6" guns)
To those that are going for her in the Fall event good luck (Even if she is not my most anticipated ship from the new event ships, and she is not the same type I know I will
)

Well she and Lexington would have been the finest battlecruisers in the US Navy.

Yeah for her time she would have indeed been very powerful, though on the same hand if she had been built as a battlecruiser, should probably would have soon have been passed by in the growing battleship arms race that would have existed.

Sorry for only asking now but Β are Saratoga's arms restrained to her sides?

I guess I tried to rush with this one so the pose turned out a bit stiff. The fishnets on her arms are just supposed to act as arm covers of sorts (representing cage masts)

I wasn't referring to the fishnets on her arms. I referring to the metal brace that goes around her torso and arms under her breasts.

On second look I guess I didn't add enough contrast on that portion, but it is actually two parts. She has a band around her arm (Not really connected to anything just more for battleship look) and a separate brace around her body to support the equipment.Β

Oh 0.0, sorry, I couldn't tell the difference between the two. Sorry Cat.

No problem.
Again I kind of rushed this one more than usual so I didn't give it the once over I should have before posting. Β

We all make mistakes. That's life for you.

That's true but that would have caused war between the Royal Navy and the US Navy and seeing how the US was the economic giant it was growing to be, it is not hard to see the US becoming the victors in the said war.Β

I love these so much. Do you plan to keep going?

Yeah from time to time, but sometimes I am just too lazy to draw the fancy over the top equipment setups.

Yes the introduction of Commandant Teste means more ships of the Best Navy will come!

Well yeah, but America isn't the best so to speak. They always have to start somewhere.

*cough* when I use the word "Best Navy" I am not referring to the US Navy, check the new ship list

Ah... Yes, France. Hate to say it, but France was more of a liability to both sides than an asset.

I will say strong military, but weak leaders. Either way, they do have a lot of interesting weapons and vehicles that fall underneath most people's radar.

Okay true on that, I admit, because in the final cutscenes in the good Waterloo ending of Napoleon total war, the narrator said this, "Glory like that, can only survive once."
Though I question one thing from the French Navy, even if some of them were ground (or sea XD) breaking for their time. Which is the Dunkurqe-class, not that I'm saying she was a bad design, it was a good design. However I do question the placement of all of the secondary guns.
