Perfect meld: American body with the heart of a Spitfire.

I know... I think the name was given to it byt he RAF when the US sent the first Allison engined models across. Point being names.

"M3 Light Tank" was Stuart... which started a whole tradition. I have a feeling the P51 only got the name "Mustang" because of the Brits.

People this is Taiwan the copyright violating capital of the world! Counterfeit torps. I knew it! [i probably wouldn't say this in the SEA forum...]

Ship may be the same but where is Taiwan going to get torpedoes? That's right... Taiwan. I'm amazed they're any use at all.

Here's hoping.

It would mean that WoT would have to go on the back burner for me.

Very unlikely this will be available for dubloons in this calendar year.

Worth remembering in such discussions that the ship is only one aspect of the issue. I have Kagero and fubuki in my port. While I am indeed expecting to get the Yûgumo at tier IX, Kagero at VIII and the Fubuki itself at Tier VI after the shuffle I'm expecting to be shafted over the commanders because WG have form in WoT. Kagero presently has a fifteen point guy. Fubuki runs with a ten Point captain. I don't have a Tier VI DD in my port... Will the Kagero Commander move with the ship to Tier VIII or take up the Yûgumo? Is Fubuki 's commander destined for tier VI?

If it were possible to get the Iawaki Apha I'd go for the lucky dip crates. As it is I have the two rare ships most people would want, and most of the rest. I think the consumables will be the thing to go fur unless we get the opportunity to buy then in bulk for half price a few weekends a year as in the tanks. But then, when the flags run low...

Biggest problem will be people complaining that other players got better crates than they did. Eventually it will be player in RU and NA get better crates and players with premium get better crates. And it will never end.

Being the only DD in a side means there's only one on the other. You might play an entire battle and not ever be detected.

...yet.

Have you been living on Mars or summat? HMS Belfast!

Just booked the day off work... I'll be up at 4am anyway for the First Test.

I've already decided my tactic: I'll just hit Y and charge her down. A DD is a small target head on.

I really want the DD line more than anything as I am a DD man. However I do enjoy Warspite and Campbeltown. Watching the Belfast makes me wonder whether I'll ever be able to get any joy out of mid tier DDs any more. You can't even sail away from the Belfast because you won't know she's there.

OP needs to accept that no one sees the battle the way he does. Also, players in multi player online games say nasty things to upset you.

I did not know this... but I think I'd still prefer to pay just 500 gold.

This game was always intended to be modded. I'm running no mods at all at the moment but I'll be loading the WG Official pack sometime after the Brit cruisers come in.

This is a plague in WoT. the forums are awash with such misguided foolery.

I'm with OP on this. The camos on non premium ships except the ones you buy for an exorbitant amount of gold are awful to my eyes. Even then, in a moment of insanity, I bought some of that godawful green white and red camo for my Cleveland and Gnevny.

Eventually the Belfast Commander will be the best DD Commander in my fleet. Demolition and concealment are often DD skills.

I won most of my games this morning. Weis in Warspite x 2 Konig, Campbeltown andGremyashchy. I lost in the Kagero though.

Thursday I reckon. Half planning to be off work anyway for the first Test at Chittagong...
