There are a few standard rule sets here though. Most importantly, there is no free lunch. You can't just lob standoff missiles against Abyssals and hope to land hits without any risk to yourself, winning battles takes roughly the same amount of effort as it woud've taken back in WWII.
Yes. I suppose I should've spent more than half a sentence in parentheses clarifying that I wasn't disagreeing with that.
(except for their tech being immune to {Magical Revolting Abyssal Bullshit}-powered anti-modernity countermeasures)
"Modern tech doesn't work very well against abyssals" is fine, as long as:
a) that's always how it works, throughout the whole fic (true), and
b) it doesn't feel contrived for the sake of the plot (half-true IMO, although abyssal hax isn't what I was talking about in my previous post).
 
I tend to work with the 'modern tech doesn't work well against Abyssal magic' trope myself, outside here obviously. But with caveats, as there are caveats to everything.
 
I wonder what happens if Battleship Princess/Tosa actually talks to Kaga...
Tosa: Well, someone certainly cleaned up nicely. Do you have that annoying itch though? Right around your keel about five meters from the bow? I swear someone shaved off a little more than needed and it bother me like you would not believe.
Kaga: ...I ...no?
Tosa: Lucky bitch. Hmph!
 
As the title implies, a quest centered on Tosa.

Like AriQuest, but with Tosa.

If there is an Abyssal Tosa and yes, that will be painful for Kaga, then there is just as much chance for an Abyssal Washington, BB-47. I wouldn't want a piece of that meeting if Wash meets up with a twisted version of her intended precursor.

Ah, gotcha. I knew not of the Tosa centric quest.

There is indeed an Abyssal Tosa. She's steaming up towards Sasebo with her own vile task force.
 
To be fair, the Abyssals may take designs as their own, but there's no evidence they are actually the ship. All the evidence is to the contrary, actually, what with the 5 NelRods with Hoppou.

Wait, wait, wait!

The Abyssal build ships based on existing designs? Does that mean they can build Iowa's?

I just had the horrifying image of Jersey running into two Abyssalized Iowas calling themselves Kentucky and Illinois. Poor Jersey already has enough mental problems with out having that kind of family reunion.
 
Pretty much every Abyssal from the very start (Kawachi, in the first battle IIRC) has been an existing design. Even Hoppou, technically, was.
 
Yeah. I'm not allowing myself to create Abyssals from whole cloth. They're all based off some ship or other, even if I don't say it outright.
 
Now you do, so why not check it out?

... whelp. Guess we know what paper project(s) bullshit The Abyssals are throwing at humanity next.
paper projects reminds me of this monstrosity

Waffentrager auf E100
For those who don't know, this was a tank released 3 years ago for the game World of Tanks, and has continuously ruined everyone's lives for that time period. It is finally getting replaced. Just a little amusing thought.
99% paper (besides the fact that it's basically a frankenstein of various parts into one min/maxed package. Crap Armor. Devastating autoloader that can nearly one clip 90% of targets it faces if its shots connect, slow speed, terrible camo values, hull of a heavy tank, turret made of sheet metal, one of the highest view ranges in game.)
It is finally getting replaced.
 
Omake: Cute things with Harry Leferts.
Well, I did state that I would do an omake involving KH...

Walking past a bench, Jersey paused for a moment to see Wash leaning over Gale's shoulder as she held some device in her hands. 'Should I... Fuck it, I'm a Battleship, I do what I want.' Moments later, she was also looking over Gale's shoulders at the screen. Then she blinked as music began to play and the silhouette of a familiar character popped up on the screen. "Wait, is that Mickey Mouse?"

Just nodding, Gale tried to ignore both Battleships as she sipped her drink. "Well, Disney is one of the two companies involved in making Kingdom Hearts."

It was then that Naka popped up with a grin. "Dream Drop Distance, right?"

Gale just smiled a bit. "Yeah, just waiting until Kingdom Hearts III comes out. We might be surprised by the ending."

There was a smirk on Naka's face as on the screen pages from a book were shown floating in the air. "Oh, I do hope so."

Somehow knowing that she had missed something, Wash ignored them until she pointed at the screen. "Wait, that's Donald and Goofy!" Then she frowned a bit as a young boy with brown hair and blue eyes with the strangest clothing popped out of a page. "Who's that?"

Chuckling, Gale just shook her head. "That's Sora, he's the main protagonist of the games. You also fight alongside a bunch of Disney characters and against some of the Disney villains, like Pete."

With a sniffle as a black haired girl showed up, Naka shook her head. "Dammit Xion..."

Blinking, Gale looked over at her. "Who?"

Her eyebrow raised, Naka turned toward Gale with a frown. "Xion."

That only caused Gale to blink with a fake look of concentration on her face. "No, really, who is that? Sounds kind of familiar but I can't remember..."

Glaring, Naka huffed a bit as Gale finally began to laugh. "Fuck you too."

Jersey just blinked though at one scene. "Wait, did Mickey Mouse just smack a bitch and..." Her eyes narrowed as she stared in disbelief. "He can fly?!"

Snickering, Gale and Naka shared a look before they turned back to Jersey as they spoke as one. "No, jump good."

Utterly confused, Wash just raised a finger before pointing it at the screen. "What the heck just happened? And what's the deal with this?"

As she shrugged, Gale hummed as she started her game. "When the Japanese and Americans cooperate, crazy awesome stuff happens. Well... both crazy and awesome so it counts in both ways."

Meanwhile, Naka just grumbled. "Jane manages to get each one before me though... and I need to ask for her to send them over to me once she's done."

Looking between Naka and Gale, Jersey shook her head. "Dammit... the fucking weirdness is spreading."
