@Rebel, thanks for the link. I may contribute a few more merchant type ships. They are quick to build.

I reckon if you outfit the nishin maru with loads of harpoons and hit it with a shark invasion then ... I don't know but it'd be fun

Sure! Go right ahead. You might want to use the armed version (link in the description), it has higher freeboard and a rudimentary anti-roll control system making it more practical.

I don't understand all the hate. This is a well-made scaled down replica, and if people have a problem with that, then they should learn to look elsewhere for what they wat instead of leaving hateful comments. Seriously, haters, haven't you got anything better to do? Like making your own ships?
Qotov Apr 1, 2016 @ 5:15am 
oh why so much hate in comments? Its just a nice builded goodlooking ship. gj.

Makes blowing up boats even more fun, cheers

Would love to make this ram anti-whaling ships off in the sea.

After seeing all the hate this got it has inspired me to build a giant Swazticka that flies and gain eternal life by causing eternal butthurt
Solar Mar 30, 2016 @ 10:15pm 
I have, in 4 hours, sunk, blown up, or otherwise destroyed over 50 Nisshin Maru. I declare this the Butt Monkey [tvtropes.org] of my fleet machinations.

<controversy intensifies>

If you are offended by random things on the internet, be sure to check out the Nisshin Maru Angry Whaler special edition! It blows things up, rams and for a limited time only comes with an interactive BIG POLLUTER integrated oil drill and refinery complex. While stocks last!

And after this, how about the Exxon Valdez next?

Your post on the forums. About the argument over an unarmed ship. I just had to see it. Wow, people actually argue about this stuff?

lol a near dead game? this game havent even reached its peak yet

anyway i love the ship its very nice and i could use a floating refinery that looks modern and can be upgraded with weapons

and just to be clear, almost the entire arsenal of the german army with ships planes and tanks from world war 2 that were designed and built by the nazies is available right here on this games workshop and yet the number of neo nazies world wide remained relatively unchanged, just a thought....

"Just doing research..." bahahahaahah we know what you're up to...
electricsheep  [author] Mar 29, 2016 @ 8:22pm 
Just to clear the air, I made this ship in both a wooden / unarmed and lightly armored merchant cruiser variant to act as a future aggressor in a Whale Wars style Antarctic confrontation scenario or custom campaign.

I can't think of a better way to promote conservationism than designing these units and scenarios and I intended my earlier reply as a tongue in cheek "o rly" sort of way. I mean if you are offended by a freaking virtual ship, go blow it up. That's why I enjoy making stuff for this game!

As for my mental health I have absolutely no idea as I ain't a real doctor!
Solar Mar 29, 2016 @ 8:07pm 
Ohhh! it looks like I have a new torpedo target!
RamSnowboarder Mar 29, 2016 @ 7:15pm 
I only know this ship from Whale Wars, but it looks awesome and pretty realistic. Nice Job
Dart Mar 29, 2016 @ 6:38pm 
This is a cool ship, and I look foward to anything else you build.
snekjek Mar 29, 2016 @ 5:47pm 
Where does it say this person supports whaling? And how would this even support whaling? Its not like some criminal is going to look at this ship for inspiration and say, 'Hey! This motivates me to slaughter countless sea life for a portion of their carcass and throw the rest away!" This is a finely made ship in the game and I personally dont see how this is offensive, if you are against animal hunting, go outside and contribute to that, instead of telling people that its offensive. I dont think whaling or etc is okay either, but its A SHIP. And the game isnt near dead if tons of people play it and create good ships. Also, I'm in no way trying to create an argument, I just dont see how that makes sense. And this ship was IRL created in 1987, when it was popular. And now, its not, and its criminal. And please dont accuse someone of not being mentally okay, they could be genuinley be not okay. <3
That Blind Person Mar 29, 2016 @ 5:08pm 
Tacky people, tacky things, If I wanted to....'vent' I would downvote and report, but I didn't, and someone who builds whaling and anti-whaling "fleets" on a near-dead game has no base to tell someone else to get a life.

If I find someones work offensive I will say something, If you don't like that maybe you shouldn't post things that can offend people, then act surprised that something offensive actually offends someone.

Internet or not, game or not, have at least a little bit of class please. This is like posting a swastika and expecting it not to offend anyone simply because it has multiple meanings.

Especially when you make a file public.
Tranquil Mar 29, 2016 @ 5:01pm 
LOL, would nazi ships in the workshop popularize nazism?
electricsheep  [author] Mar 29, 2016 @ 4:50pm 
Are you aware I also build (surprise!) a unit type called.. anti whaling patrol boats? Get a life instead of venting on peoples' random creations. If you want to save dolphins go build up the Sea Shepherd hulls and help me with the rest of Neptune's Navy.

In the meantime, from the MARITIME ENGINEERING perspective, a factory ship like Nisshin Maru is excellent as a mobile base ship in campaign play. Just need some torpedoes and depth charges for the eventual encounter with Pequods. Which by the way, is a submarine.
That Blind Person Mar 29, 2016 @ 1:37pm 
Whaling was banned, they still do it....they slaughter dolphins as well. Attempting to popularize this/them in any way what-so-ever is in incredibly bad taste, what the hell is wrong with you? seek mental help please.

There is an armed prospector refit here. Whaling was banned and now they want to drill oil in the Antarctic!
