About the leaks

Decided to mark this as spoiler just to be safe

So as it had been leaked that UR BB Gotz von Berlichingen and UR Submarine U-2501 will very likely if not almost certainly be the 2 URs for this event earlier this afternoon as upon seeing them i checked Danbooru to see if they were just fan art but found nothing and the fact that the devs issued a take down notice over on the other subreddit albeit too late before who knows how many on here and on the other subreddit before the post were taken down strongly hints these are the UR we are getting as it is too late for them to change the URs now.

Time for a quick history lesson I think.

Götz von Berlichingen is likely H39 Battleship J who was laid down at Deschimag Bremen on September 1st 1939 but her construction was stopped and the incomplete ship was scrapped on November 25th 1941.

U2501 is the lead ship of the Type 21 class diesel-electric submarines which was a replacement for the Type 7 and Type 9 family of diesel-electric submarines and were the 1st class of air-independent propulsion type submarines albeit very flawed with primitive air-independent propulsion type technology.

One thing i can be sure whomever leaked them are so getting banned from Azur Lane if they play it

If they are staff member at manju they are so getting fired and probably but maybe not likely are going to be thrown into prison for a probable case of NDA breach.

So what do we think of the choices?

Now that I think about it this doesn't feel like the 1st time this has happened, so how many times have URs for events leaked before the livestream?

how is manju seemingly so bad at keeping things from getting leaked?

Dear Commander,

New Memory for Mecklenburg will be available after the 5/7 maintenance!

Ready for a date with her?

u/A444SQ — 8 days ago

Apparently we may be looking at a 30mm MK 303 Flak AA twin-mount and a BB gun of some description

I would like to remind people that you should not consider that this is any sort of confirmation that Iron Blood will get the event as there was a Type 21 u-boat the KMS U2518 who was transferred as a war prize to the French as the Roland Morillot class submarine MN Roland Morillot.

I have had a look at the mount shown in the image and it does look like a German 150mm SK C/28 twin mount that would be expected on German capital ships as they were large enough to use twin mounts.
