Neither the brits or the us considered her a 4th. Those were the only two navies that mattered at the time. The only people who consider her a 4th is game labs and they admitted they did it for balance reasons.

And that's just beginning of the BR-balancing kerfuffle that we're about to embark on. To think that, in a PB setting, equal numbers of constis would be able to take on equal numbers of Wasas seems a bit ridiculous.

The wasa wasn't even combat viable. It sank in harbor. The Connie was designed to be able to hold its own against the older 64s, maybe even a 74 in a pinch.

No for the hundredmillions times. That was a different W(V)asa that sunk when leaving the port for her first time.

The only reference I can find for a ship of that name is the one that sunk. So please link the one that you think it is. The one that foundered was also a 64 with similar gun layout to the one in game.

What we have in game is the Wasa class ship Kronprins Gustaf Adolph designed by Chapman 1782. The ingame name Wasa is just wrong and should be renamed. See above thread.

the art doesn't look right and the gun count doesn't seem to match right. So looks like we got some game labs idea of a Swedish 4th. And looking at commissioned Swedish ships, a whole lot of them were captured by shitty navies like Russia lol. For being Viking stock the swedes sure lost their fighting and sailing ability at some point.
