Blizzard needs to standardize the war machines of the factions as well as the navies.

Have clear, distinct classes of ships that never get swapped out between each other. For instance in WoD the forsaken battleship was the horde’s battleship. In the incursion for nazmir the horde’s battleships are orcish destroyers. Those ships are not equipped at all to fulfill the role of a battleship so why call them that?

My proposal for the navies

Horde-

Gunboat: goblin riverboat updated and outfitted to adequately fill that role.

Destroyer: orcish destroyer updated with a couple cannons and torpedo tubes

Frigate: zandalari frigate equipped with ballistae and would fit well as a support combat ship.

Battleship: Forsaken battleship. no changes needed

Aircraft carrier: iron horde/WoD aircraft carrier. no changes needed

Galleon: Zandalari galleon. no changes needed.

Dreadnought: iron horde dreadnought. Needs to be updated to have proper weapons instead of a giant frontal cannon.

Transport: forsaken transport equipped with catapults.

Blockade runner: blood elf schooner. Needs to be updated to be more modern as well as adding elven ballistas

Alliance-

Destroyer: alliance icebreaker updated to have a few cannons and torpedo tubes

Frigate: kul tiran frigate. no changes needed

Battleship: alliance battleship. no changes needed

Aircraft carrier: newly designed gnomish aircraft carrier

Galleon: kul tiran galleon. no changes needed.

Dreadnought: newly designed gnomish dreadnought.

transport: alliance transport ship equipped with cannons.

Blockade runner: night elven blockade runner. Needs to be updated to modern standards and equipped with elven ballistas

As for the aircraft. They need to update and redesign unique fighters, bombers, and gyrocopters for both faction.

Both faction airships needed to be updated as they have become outdated since wrath.

Goblin zeppelin needs a combat version made as a war zeppelin and would act in support of naval forces or horde airships.

The alliance need a new gunship to be an equal to the goblin zeppelin. Something like a miniature airship maybe?

The wings of steel are horde goblin bomber jets, and the gnomish bombers are alliance gnomish biplane bombers, I’m surprised why haven’t they made the wings of steel bombers mounts yet? what about the gnomish bomber mounts too?
