It is no longer a cold warship, but has transformed into a living life.

Ship girls, who are happy and sad, can cry and laugh, and look like humans, have the same rich inner world as humans.

In order to let players feel this, game designers specially designed their own characters for each ship girl who appears.

From vertical paintings with different styles, to language or oral habits that can reflect personality characteristics, to hobbies, taboos and fetters derived from some historical events... Even if you are just a layman who has never been exposed to design technology,

You can also feel the sincerity of the designers from the many details, and admire the time and energy they put into this work.

However, designers are just designers after all, not experts in military history research.

Just like ordinary people reading history books, they will only notice the more famous historical events and use them as materials to present them in the characters of the ship girls. As for the details that have nothing to do with the 'historical turning point',

But they may not pay much attention to it, let alone use it as a reference to enrich the characters of the ship girls.

For example, Richelieu, the former boss of the French Navy, is an example of "key events being noticed by designers and integrated into the character design" - leaving aside the few minutes of licking the screen after shipment, all the

Players who have built Richelieu at one time will notice that there is a very special piece of equipment in her equipment column, which is the French quadruple 380mm explosive cannon.

It is obviously a rare warship with an impressive shipment rate, and was once valued as a European Emperor's Certificate. According to common sense, the initial equipment equipped for Richelieu, if not colorful, should at least be all gold.

.But in the game, why did the designers equip her with such a main gun that is only blue in quality and has negative attributes?

This thing is obviously not worthy of Sister Li's distinguished status.

In fact, the reason why Richelieu was equipped with an explosive cannon was because of an actual accident in history - due to problems with the French artillery shell design, during the Battle of Dakar, Richelieu's

One of the main guns exploded. At that time, the only large battleship under the French Navy that could fight tough battles was Richelieu...

The explosion of the main gun caused Richelieu to withdraw from the battle sequence, and her retreat had a considerable impact on the direction of the entire battle... It is precisely because the explosion of the main gun left a heavy mark on military history.

, so the designers noticed this incident and presented it in the character design of the ship girl Richelieu.

For example, the reason why Hood did not have a good relationship with the German warships, especially the two Bismarck sisters, was because in history, Hood was sunk by Bismarck's soul-piercing bullet.

For example, the Japanese battle cruiser Kongo often mixes in some English words when she speaks. That is because she was born in a British shipyard and was bought back from the United Kingdom by Japan with its ships and technology.

Another example is O'Bannon.

The reason why this girl is affectionately called Little Potato by other ship girls, and why she never talks about Potato, is because she once created the great feat of "successful anti-submarine warfare with potatoes" in the naval battle - April 1943

On March 5, O'Bannon, who had completed a mission, encountered a Japanese submarine when he was returning home. When O'Bannon was almost clinging to the submarine,

The Japanese submarine finally reacted, and they planned to attack O'Bannon with the deck gun equipped on the submarine. However, O'Bannon's crew, without weapons, quickly thought of throwing potatoes from the storage room at the submarine. The Japanese accidentally mistook the potatoes.

Missing the grenade and thus delaying the opportunity to operate the deck guns, O'Bannon took the opportunity to distance himself and sink the submarine.

"I do know that O'Bannon once used potatoes to build a submarine. As for her relationship with Nicholas, I really don't know much about it." After thinking about it, I found that my understanding of O'Bannon seemed to stop at that bag.

On top of the potatoes, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but shook his head, feeling a little guilty.

"Haha, actually you can't blame the commander." Wichita didn't take it seriously: "After all, there are so many Fletcher-class destroyers, and there are always several people gathering together to play. Don't say you don't know, commander.

, even we people don’t know very well who among them has a better relationship with whom.”

"Thank you for your comfort... Haha, I still have to admit what I have to admit. It's true that I didn't care enough."

"It's really not a comfort." Wichita smiled: "Nicholas and O'Bannon were the first two Fletcher-class destroyers to be launched. Moreover, they often took Taylor with them and hung around Missouri.

It’s not like other little girls who always avoid us as sisters... Because I have more contact with them, I know more about them."

"And Taylor?"

"Yes, the three of them once formed a team together to escort Missouri into Tokyo Bay." After saying this, Wichita puffed up her chest very proudly and showed a smile full of accomplishment on her face: "Commander, you should

Do you know? The surrender and armistice agreement was signed on the USS Missouri."

"I know. Huh? You mean..."

"That's right, the Missouri entered Tokyo Bay to carry out the surrender mission. Nicholas, O'Bannon and Taylor were the frigates she used to carry out that mission." Wichita jumped two steps and walked to Shi Xiaolei.

, a delicate turn, facing Shi

Xiao Lei said with a smile: "For the three little guys, that was an extremely glorious mission. Hehe, do you understand now? Why do the three of them hang out together every day, and why do they always follow Missouri? In fact, they are all

Because of that escort mission."

Put yourself in their shoes, if you were O'Bannon or Nicholas...

"...That's it." Shi Xiaolei felt the same in his heart and couldn't help but nodded.

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the dock and stood next to the running construction machine.

After taking a look at the countdown on the screen, Shi Xiaolei found that there were nearly twenty minutes left. Shi Xiaolei first breathed a sigh of relief: 'Fortunately, the time is just right, I didn't come back too late.'

Thinking again of what Wichita said just now, the corners of Shi Xiaolei's mouth curled up slightly.

"Wichita."

Perhaps because she was a little thirsty while guarding the door just now, Wichita went to the tent at the back and got herself a bottle of drink.

Suddenly hearing Shi Xiaolei's greeting, Wichita quickly poked her head out: "Commander, you called me?"

"Can we contact O'Bannon?" Turning back to look at Wichita, Shi Xiaolei raised his finger and pointed at the construction machine: "There are still twenty minutes left in the countdown. If we can notify her now, maybe she can still make it.

Come here before time reaches zero and meet Nicholas face to face."

"It should be okay. Let me ask Helena. Commander, where is your walkie-talkie? Lend it to me."
