    Ranked will be dominated by these two ships.....

    Actually Blys can invisi fire from 10.4 km. With 14.4 km range it has a 4 km stealth fire window, pretty much like the Gremyashchy... And the 120mm guns are quite good. Sadly my Cap is not at 18p for IFHE though.

    If you want to make use of dpm in Lenin, you have to sail in a more predictable way though. Otherwise the slow turret traverse will keep your guns off target.

    "No it does not." Great argument. Lenin: 5 guns x12 rof x1600 alpha = 96.000 dpm Blys: 7 guns x9,23 rof x1700 alpha = 109.837 dpm 109.837 / 960 (1%) = 114,41 %. Blys does 14,41% more dpm IF Lenin can actually get all guns at the target. And Blys actually fires more shells per minute (7x9,23=64,61) than Lenin (5x12=60). If you choose to fire these shells in salvos, a missed salvo hurts more, but it also gives you more time to evade torpedoes.

    Gneisenau, Fiji and Mahan should indeed be just as competitive non-premiums.

    How could Lenin ever be better in a gun fight?! Even when Lenin gets all guns at the target, Blys still has 15% more DPM. And Blys can stealth fire from 10.4 km.

    Russian DD changes

    As it seems, Kiev will not skip Tashkent and become T8 instead. So after the patch, it will require more XP to get through the Tashkent, because it will be a tier higher. Also it will cost more credits.

    Deactivate "no cap" camp-mode ?

    Is there a way to deactivate that stupid mode without caps? People will always just hide in the corners and camp all match.

    Belfast is "slightly" overpowered?

    Omfg, smoke is on a different button on this thing and you cannot change it. That is so stupid...

    British fleet

    Also this: Doubloon discounts are also available on Belfast (15%) and Warspite (30%) in game until 04 February! I guess they mean 04th till 07th Feb?

    HE penetration details

    So HE will overmatch 1/6 gun caliber in mm armor. But how is it calculated? To overmatch 25mm, do you need A) 150mm gun caliber (150/6=25) B) 151mm gun caliber (151/6=25,17) C) 156mm gun caliber (156/6=26) ? Quite important for IFHE on Belfast for example, if 152mm HE will penetrate common 25mm bow armor already...

    Event Calendar - February

    2.500 BaseXP in a single battle for this weeks mission? Are you kidding me? If it was around 2.000 BaseXP, I might go for it.

    Elimination thread 3: Tier VII *Winner!*

    I wonder how Leningrad would do here. Simply pure fun to have that speed combined with torpedo-walls and big guns. Much more thrilling than invisi-firing on a Blys.

    Elimination thread 3: Tier VII *Winner!*

    Anyway, this is about preference. So Scharnhorst it is for me.

    Elimination thread 3: Tier VII *Winner!*

    The only reason, Blys is not known to be blatantly OP is because people don't have a great polish captain. With CE+AFT+DE it is even more capable than the gremyashchy.
  15. __Helmut_Kohl__

    Elimination thread 3: Tier VII *Winner!*

    I thought this was just about preference. If it is about efficiency, Blys dominates them both. CE+AFT+DE Blys will burn down the whole map from a 4km stealth fire window.

    Elimination thread 3: Tier VII *Winner!*

    Blyskawica: 41 Belfast: 35-3 = 32 (Why play a paper thin-cruiser, when you can do the same in a heavily armored Scharnhorst) Scharnhorst: 41+1 = 42 (Charging into people with speed, armor, secondaries and torps ist just fun)

    Leningrad - Premium DD in the shop

    The 130mm HE of the Leningrad seems to do really good module damage against other destroyers. So even though the turrets can be a problem, it is not helpless in a knife-fight.
  18. __Helmut_Kohl__

    Blyskawica vs Leningrad

    Lenis 130mm HE seems to have much better blast radius and module damage than Blys 120mm. So it doesn't have the best gun handling against DDs, but it has a good chance to cripple or detonate them. Does someone have the numbers for Blys HE? Leni seems to have 0.45 blast radius and 570 module damage. (US 127mm seems to only have 0.38 and 380)

    HMS Campbeltown Review

    Just had a 100k damage match in this little thing. Crazy.

    USS SIMS: Upgrades

    Hey, Which Upgrades do you guys have on your Sims and why? Can't decide between Gun Fire Control System Mod 1 (Accuracy) and Main Battery Mod 2 (DPM). Other than that I got -Propulsion Mod 1 -Steering Gears Mod 2 -Torpedo Tubes Mod 1
  21. As you know, you can not only fire all of your guns by double-clicking, but also by holding the mouse button (firing all guns separately in a row). Is the latter option more accurate, because it generates less recoil?
  22. __Helmut_Kohl__

    Accuracy: Full Salvo / Sequential Fire

    Good point!

    premium xp

    Converting XP has to be unlocked at "Profile" first.

    A plea to all Destroyer captains.

    USS Sims is no Japanese DD. It is no Ninja, it is an aggressive beast.

    What's with torpedoes' alpha?

    Impact Position seems to be extremely important. Last match in my Sims I managed to put 9 Torps into the bulg of a BB and only dealt like 45k dmg.
