Included will be descriptions, specific colors, notable uses and exceptions to as much of my knowledge and research allow. Right now I would like to list the approved camouflage measures in use by the US Navy during the period covered by WoWS.

I'll provide an example: You can give the Wyoming the use of the MS1 Dark Gray scheme as used from January to September 1941 as the Wyoming (and the rest of the post-dreads) probably wore it but you wouldn't give the Iowa that same scheme as they were commissioned well after that scheme went out of service in 1941. You could go further by allowing schemes to only be used on ships that were in commission in the periods when the scheme was in use. Some could just be there for aesthetics or some could even have both positive and some detrimental effects based on class and type of ship it's being used on. Each scheme could provide their own unique characteristic or some could overlap or have the exact same effect. What I would very much like to see is the inclusion of many more schemes. But that's not quite the point I'm trying to make here. Just like in tanks, no two camouflages were exactly alike. immersive? Accurate? Anything else? And what's more, to my eye, the two camouflage schemes the US has (I haven't checked out the Japanese schemes yet) are pretty similar! Yes I know there are implicit differences but not all ships were painted in the same measure, even if the ships were from the same class, had the same pattern. Now that's all fun and good but it isn't really. There's no information on them other than they reduce detection by a few percentage points or reduce accuracy by a few percentage points. I, along with much of the WoWS community (and anyone who happens to use the in-game camouflage), have noticed that there are only two different types of in-game camouflages available to us for each nation. But this thread I do intend to make different from the rest. Now I know there's been a couple threads specifically about some camouflage schemes and others that mention it in passing.
