Hm. Can't find a meaning for this one's name; weird mistranslation of "Dandelion," maybe? Evil Tim 13:40, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

probably not, since the katakana translation of dandelion would be something like danderion. Besides, I played the English version of the game so I'm sure the name is correct. |Arcius| 14:21, March 10, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I know you've got the correct name, I'm just wondering if this is a word that's been mangled by being translated to Japanese and back. As with, say, "Megalis" in Armoured Core 4 and For Answer which should be called "Megalith." All the other names mean something, after all. I'm wondering if this was something like Duberdicus originally. Evil Tim 14:49, March 10, 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure, hmm. Maybe becuz it's a Federation ship so it doesnt follow any previous pattern |Arcius| 15:23, March 10, 2011 (UTC)
Also, it looks like Dandarius is a boss level, like the third Marmota fight? You go on board it, by the looks of things. Evil Tim 16:32, March 10, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, the deck is actually a map for several battles, one of the turret is a boss too. |Arcius| 16:42, March 10, 2011 (UTC)


Just FYI, there is actually a big radiator on top of that chimney. It's the same for other ships as well. |Arcius| 09:25, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

I noticed in the description of the ship that it has an outdated hull, does this make the ships design pre-dreadnought?Ecchi garr 13:28, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not sure. This is pretty much all the information the game provides. There is an image of the entire ship in the artbook, I'll upload it when I have some time. |Arcius| 13:37, March 11, 2011 (UTC)
Configuration-wise she certainly is, since from the Youtube video I saw she has flank guns in casemates rather than having all her main guns in rotating turrets. That said, Warspite did that and was a post-Dreadnought; would depend on the size of the secondary guns. She does have turrets rather than barbettes, which is post-Dreadnought stuff as a rule. Of course, it's a bit of a nonsensical distinction since we don't know if anyone's built a Dreadnought-equivalent warship yet. Evil Tim 13:46, March 11, 2011 (UTC)
