Thanks once again Harald. Will make the additions to Da Babes, both Lite and Big. Don’t quite agree with the class changes, though. Fx, and fyi, the PMM is based on the Poelau/Moeller/Maersk models. Think Noordam, Zaandam, Tjinegara, and Tjitjalengka fit better in Klipfoetein class with respect to speed, size, capacity and especially appearance. Here’s a pic that shows the reasons why I prefer the Klip model. Top is Poelau Laut, next is Klipfontein, then Noordam (Zaandam was a sister), then Tjitjalengka and finally Tjinegara.

Will vet and confirm the Tjik’s, Tjis’s and Tjibesar, keeping your suggestions in mind. Ciao. J
btw, we struck Beatrice in Da Babes and gave her to Japan, under her Japanese name, after a suitable time to repair.

Thanks. I'll see if I can find any of the sources in my library and figure out how I mistook men for ships.

My data does show the "Ben" series as petrol tankers. We are debating what to do with these in Babes. One idea is to give them a mixed fuel/cargo capacity to represent the use of their cargo for small craft and aircraft fuel. With no gasoline type, gasoline powered small craft use fuel and air craft consume supply. Large number of AOG in US inventory.

I have:
TAN 1 = Paula
TAN 2 = Juno
TAN 3 = Djirak
TAN 4 = Pendopo
TAN 5 = Aldegonda
TAN 6 = Josefina
TAN 7 - missing in my data, now known to be Benakat
TAN 8 = Ambo

BEN 1 = Minjak
BEN 2 = Moesi
BEN 3 = Asaha (<100 tons)
BEN 4 = Mampawa

they were not tankers, just cargo ships transporting fuel in drums

Still a little confused.

Womack ( http://www.amazon.com/Dutch-Naval-Force-Against-Japan/dp/078642365X ) - page 193 indicates that 10 small tankers were taken over from the Netherlands Colonial Steam Boat Company and that 8 received TAN names. It also identifies TAN 8 as Djirak.

Lenton ( http://www.amazon.com/Navies-Second-World-War-Netherlands/dp/B0000CO51C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271018773&sr=8-1 ) - page 153 lists TAN 1-6 plus 8, identifyig TAN 8 as Ambo.

dr. Ph.M. Bosscher "De Koninklijke Marine in de Tweede Wereldoorlog volume 2" 1986 (standard work) identifies Petronella as TAN 8. Same with L.L. von Münching (Kon. Marine in de 2e Wereldoorlog, 1978) and C. Mark (Schepen van de Koninklijke Marine in W.O. II, 1997).

(edit). Even more interesting. Not lend leased, ordered by Royal Netherlands Navy in the Canada and the US.

Status: offline 		Thanks Harald. We’ll get as many as possible into DaBigBabes. We’ll probably mess with the proposed class changes some. Just fyi, here’s how we are defining merchant classes. There’s two groups, older and modern. Oldies have plumb bows, counter sterns, old style superstructure, tall thin funnels. Modern vessels have clipper bows, cruiser sterns, modern superstructure, shorter fatter funnels. They are paired up, and go in lpl ranges: 475-525’, 425-450’, 350-395’, 300-340’. Anything smaller than 300’ gets put into one of several ‘small’ classes going all the way down to about 100’. Here’s the (general) breakout, and a pic showing how the models differ – if we can’t find a picture of a given ship, we generally take 1928-30 as the break point between old and modern and assign it accordingly.

Southwest Cargo – 490’
Dominion L Cargo – 490’
Dominion M Cargo - 425’
Pacific L Cargo - 365’
Pacific M Cargo - 315’

Euro L Cargo – 500’
Empire L Cargo – 500’
Euro K Cargo – 435’
Euro M Cargo – 380’
Euro D Cargo - 330’

Status: offline 		Also, we limited the “troopers” to those ship classes/groups that actually were affirmatively converted into troopships (Kotas, Poelaus, etc..). But don’t forget that any xAK with reasonable cargo capacity can also “troop” by cross loading. Your typical Euro K/Dominion M can carry over 900 troops cross loaded in cargo. Many vessels were used interchangeably as troopers and bulk carriers. Even though a ship might have been used to ‘troop’, it may well not have been affirmatively converted to the function; think the system models this fairly well and obviates the need to define certain vessels as a “troop” version – because once you convert, you can’t go back.

Mention all this so you will understand why we may not put some ships into the classes you suggest. We will, of course, evaluate them all, paying close attention to your suggestions. I have a friend from the Netherlands Antilles in the workgroup who is always on my brookie to make the Dutch perfect, as is Don Bowen. What you are doing for us is something special. Although we may have to tweak your suggestions a bit to have them fit into the game paradigm, believe me we are carefully listening. Please don’t stop.

Ciao. John

My proposed class changes were based on a) Shipowners (like KPM gets the Pacific-look) b) wether it is rated as passenger or general cargo c) GRT.
No doubt, your definition is much more sophisticated.

My intention was to limit the "troopers" as well. Far too many ships transporting livestock were designated as xAP, which they are not.

In the past I felt the class-decision, was somehow by chance. Now I think it's an individual decision to classify a given ship.

Glad I could help. Just wanted to put in all the missing vessels. And at least the whereabouts of all those ships is now as close as it could be.
