And after seeing ww2 era warboats for four years straight, good ol sail is surprisingly fun. Did I mention actually fun and engaging broadside mechanics?

I'd say discounted Anno 1800 have something to say for both

They can always put more money down the toilet and buy PR out

Gorizia got few buffs along the way, now sitting at 15s reload (compared to 14.5s on Zara) and 6km "German" hydro at expense of joke torpedoes (which shouldn't be there to begin with).

Because you can't ask 59k doubloon price on tier 6 ship

I had an idea of going after Gorizia, but then looking at directives not sure if I can be arsed to get copy of a mediocre-ish ship I have already with permanent camo. And then I've bumped into this piece which suggests this year crates are... lackluster to say the least. Which only reinforced decision of spending christmas money elsewhere

Not in soviet rashia

In Russia, "western" way of "customer relations" is almost a curse word. Russians and central/east european people in general can be very... direct and enthusiastic, as well can say " you" the way englishmen would consider it an art. Same with term "reliable" - in western way, it means something that works and rarely breaks down. In eastern way, it means it can break, but can be fixed on the spot with random spanner, hammer or piece of masonry bundled with cursewords

On second thought, its not the first time as WG put ridiculous pricetag on "event" ship, as Benham, as those who follow Way of the Whale had to spend 35k doubloons in crates.

On REEEddit was mentioned you can spend 24k doubloons on boosters and shortly afterward, you can instantly buyout PR for another mere 35k doubloons. And on NA apparently there are madlads who did exactly that to bring PR on day one.

USS Whale or USS Nolife

Only CLs having range advantage are ones with 152mm dual purpose guns, as in tier 9 and 10 UK and US ones. Technically De Grasse also have main gun of dual purpose variety, but it doesn't give extended range. And then there is glorious AA on Moskvagrad and Kremlin, 130mm guns with 6.6km range because amount of balans must be correct Otherwise, their long range is no different than BB or DD. Not surprising, as often they use literally the same guns for the job.

24k doubloons for three boosters and then you unlock option to buy out for 35k. So 59k doubloons for T10 ship.

Just like Benham?
