So with the CN Anniversary stream having clues that a Pan-American BB is likely coming in PR9, it got me wondering if we could get some of the real-steel ships from the big three South American countries we could get in the game at some point. Here are the examples that I can think of.

Brazil: Minas Geraes and São Paulo.

Argentina: Rivadavia and Moreno.

Chile: Almirante Latorre.

Doing another Kancolle themed one, because I like a lot of the designs in it. I simply love the Kancolle designs, even if some may find it taboo. This time, it's about Taiho (plus her Kai form to show the differences). I've been thinking about what real ship, paper ship, or WoWs ship could she represent?

e personally, if you kept the rigging as it is and upgraded them to AL standard and added some bird themed clothing, she could represent another G14 design aircraft carrier. She'd be a full sister of Hakuho and another half-sister of Taiho.

Or if her rigging was changed and upgraded to AL standard, she could represent USS Antietam. One of the Essex class sisters that didn't see any combat in WWII, but did see it in Korea. Was decommissioned for good in 1963 and scrapped in 1974.

I'm doing this here because my test post for ZZZ x AL wasn't doing well. But This is the one Fletcher class I do want to see in AL.

Making another guess post for the crowd that hate Iron Blood. For this guess, I'm going with Iris Libre/Vichya Dominion. Like before, I'll be using the template of last year's CN anniversary event, "A Rose on the High Tower", for the amount of ships (2 UR, 2 SSRs, and 2 Elites) for my guess, and with a depiction as to what they might look like. Now before people say it, I don't like having META ships as part of the gacha. But with that out of the way, onto the list.

UR #1: Bourgogne (The second of the Alsace class that was planned, but the class was terminated with the fall of France in June 1940. Depicted as Isabe from Girls und Panzer).

UR #2: Volta (The second Mogador class destroyer that actually saw service in WWII. Survived the attack on Mers-el-Kébir, but was scuttled with the rest of the French fleet at Toulon in 1942. Depicted as the Kancolle version of Mogador).

SSR #1: Henri IV (A sister of Brennus, so a more realistic take on the Saint Louis class heavy cruiser. The name taken from the coastal defense pre-dreadnought scrapped in 1921. Depicted as Jeanne d'Arc from Fate).

SSR #2: Le Fantasque (The lead ship of the class, and the last ship we need in order to complete the class. Depicted as Amelie Planchard from Strike Witches minus the rabbit traits).

Elite #1: Dixmunde (The escort carrier HMS Biter in French service, who serviced with the French from 1945 until she was sunk as a target ship in 1966. Depicted as Jane Doe from Zenless Zone Zero minus the rat traits).

Elite #2: Lille (A Lyon class battleship, and the one that has a unique name to distinguish herself or from her big sister Lyon. Depicted as The Herta from Honkai: Star Rail).

So this post has confirmed that the CN Anniversary is upon us. So it's time for me to make a guess as to who will be coming. But which nation will get it. For this guess, I'm going with Iron Blood. I'll be using the template of last year's CN anniversary event, "A Rose on the High Tower", for the amount of ships (2 UR, 2 SSRs, and 2 Elites) for my guess, and with a depiction as to what they might look like. Now before people say it, I don't like having META ships as part of the gacha. But with that out of the way, onto the list

UR #1: Götz von Berlichingen (The sister of Ulrich von Hutten, and the other semi official name given by the funny mustache man for the H class. Depicted as Caesar King from Zenless Zone Zero).

UR #2: Z51 (The only Type 1942 destroyer built, was powered by diesel engines rather than steam turbines. Was launched before she was completed and was sunk in an Allied bombing raid on Bremen in 1945. Depicted as Fuuka from Blue Archive).

SSR #1: Fürst Bismarck (A P class heavy cruiser and sister of Prinz Heinrich, Prinz Adalbert, and Friedrich Carl. Name comes from the Imperial German armored cruiser of the same name that scrapped between 1919 and 1920. Depicted as Aru from Blue Archive).

SSR #2: U-205 (A Type VIIC U-Boat, who's big claim to fame is she sunk HMS Hermione. Was sunk on February 17th, 1943, off Apollonia in Libya by P class destroyer HMS Paladin. Depicted as Bay from Nikke).

Elite #1: Z27 (A Type 1936A class destroyer. Took part in Operation Zitronella, a raid on Allied-occupied settlements in the Isfjorden on the island of Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago. Was sunk during the Battle of the Bay of Biscay on December 28th, 1943. Depicted as Rikka Takanashi from Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions).

Elite #2 Z32 (A Type 1936A (Mob) class destroyer. Was part of the Battle of the Bay of Biscay with Z27, but survived the battle. Accidentally collied with her sister Z37 on January 30th, 1944, in the southern part of the Bay of Biscay. Was chased by HMS Haida & HMS Huron during the Battle of Ushant on June 9th, 1944. Ran aground and wrecked on the island of Île de Batz. Depicted as Emma Hida from Girls und Panzer).

So this post suddenly gave me an idea, and I wanted to talk about it. We don't have any deer girls in AL. So, what are some ships (real, paper, or WoWs) that are not currently in AL that could be a deer girl?

I have three picks that I would personally want to see. But you are welcome to give your own guesses in the comments below. Anyway, here are my picks.

Real: IJN Kitakami (A Kuma class light cruiser. Was converted to a torpedo cruiser in 1941, then a fast troop transport in 1942, then finally a Kaiten carrier in 1944. Survived the war and was scrapped in 1946).

Paper: IJN Hitachi (Based on the battleship proposal by Hidetaro Kaneda. Which is a 57k ton vessel armed with twelve 18 inch guns in four quad turrets, a top speed of 30knots, have 12 inches of belt armor, and 5 inches of deck armor. The name comes from Hitachi Province, which today is most of Ibaraki Prefecture).

WoWs: IJN Yari (A development of the Type A heavy cruiser, aka an upgraded Zaō, which dropped one of her 8 inch turrets and her two quintuple torpedo launchers in exchange for three quad torpedo launchers per side and said torpedoes have a super-arrow type spread).
