Here you go:

Exeter is a York class cruiser

Hermes is an escort carrier - she is the lead ship of the class

Prince of Wales is a King George V class Battleship

Renown is a battlecruiser

The Prince of Wales was also involved in the hunt for the Bismarck, with the Renown. Shots from the Prince of Wales caused the fuel tank damage, loss of power, and list, which ultimately led to the Bismarck's demise.

Graphics looks stunning, something tells me it will be a major problem to play...

If only they would bring out something like C&C for the 360

They've apparently delayed it to concentrate on the online mode which they reckon will be fantastic.

The controls and interface are excellent but Iworry that online mode wonn't live up to it
