    WG marketing team is getting creative...

    Speaking of this glorious offer, where I can get Massachusetts classified as cruiser MM wise? I'll pass on Cossack, tribal class cruiser tho

    nah, WG already have perfect tier 4 aircraft for Balans Carriers.

    Yahagi in the shop

    To get citadel, you need to arm the bloody shell to begin with. Something remarkably hard to pull off against this thin plate.

    Emile Bertin have literally no armor, 13mm plating everywhere, which hilariously makes her ridiculously tanky against BB or even CA guns. Manual Massive AA skill?

    Same mail, same "The price of doubloons has been reduced by almost 30%" "price of doubloons reduced by 30%" and "25% coupon added for premium ships in armory" are not the same, regardless what spreadshiet says.

    How to french DD? - Builds and Playstyle

    Well, French decided to go BIG with their destroyers and they encroach on "small cruiser" territory size wise. Until tier 8 they don't have shell velocity for reliable open water gunnery, thus you focus more on assisting DD proper during cap brawls. From Fanta onwards things change, as you get: -43kts base speed -long barreled guns, fixing ballistics issue and getting serious AP pen buff along the way -concealment gap only extends, making early on solo cap ventures potentially even more lethal

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    No alternatives. And they got worse, because WG went hellbent with BTD Destroyers, which had capability of carrying two aerial torps and squadron size of 3/9. But to balans it, they literally carry Langley torps

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    MUCH worse. And aiming time is measured in anniversaries. Basically 2/3rd of damage per fish as well just as much flood chance. And landing all 6 requires Wurst sized target with allergy to keyboard.

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    Kinda this, torps are more a downgrade over fine fishes Lady Lex provides. They make for noice smoke sweeping tho. For fishing from above, go IJN.

    Blyskawica ''buff'' on ST

    Then there is/would be ORP Orkan ("windstorm"), M class DD which could make a fine tier 9, if existing sister ship Lightning is something to go by.

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    One bomb per plane, 3 planes in attack wing from Shokek onwards.

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    German, UK, RU BBs are valid choice for AP bombs and they haven't received nerfbat to dispersion like HE bombs did. RNGesus still can show his middle finger tho, so results can vary between "nothing" and "half cruiser gone".

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    Shokek will make you "can't be arsed" when you land 3/3 overpen on Tirpitz for some glorious reason And with nowadays randoms quality, expecting anything else than spectacular fail is futile hope

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    In terms of numbers Swordfishes are about as durable as IJN equivalents from Ryujo, around 1500hp and have only 200-300hp less than Ranger planes. Slow speed makes them eat AA dps for longer though.
  15. That much I know, but just because its the norm, doesn't make it right

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    Dank Royal crappines may come from having biplanes, which are SLOW and somewhat fragile, thus she got extraordinarily quick plane replacement times. Silver RN CV line is straight up inferior to what USN and IJN can provide.
  17. Panocek

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    If anything, gap between Shokek and Kaga widened, as latter have planes as durable and as fast as the former, while still having top kek reserves.

    Yahagi in the shop

    Only when facing higher tier BBs and even then, few of them are armored enough to ignore cruiser HE. CA with IFHE on other hand get to damage up to 43mm plating, which means USN BBs, Alaska deck as well Uncle Vlad and Uncle Lenin
  19. Laser tags maybe? AR definitely looks tacticool enough. Less pleasant find when digging into the topic of AL staff:

    Kleber opinios

    Which is precisely why I don't see Mogador and Kleber staying as is, they are old Khaba incarnates. Long range high speed HE slingers of annoying variety with viable torpedo backup when running full stealth build
  21. Panocek

    Ark Royal or Kaga for a CV noob?

    While both CVs have solid qualifiers for being noob friendly, I'd advise getting silver CVs first. Maybe Ryujo or Ranger and practice in Operations and then see what happens. I'd steer away from silver UK carriers unless you're of masochistic variety or want to try polishing a turd
  22. Panocek

    Yahagi in the shop

    Going by wowsft, she is kinda flimsy at 25.7k hp, with CE have 2km of stealth torping window. And torps themselves may hit hard, but are slowish at 60kts and have not so sneaky 1.6km detection. Guns don't seem inspiring - 9s reload on 6 guns total of CL caliber, at least range is solid, though ballistics may be wonky. Does have access to Engine Boost for reasons though.
  23. Panocek

    Yahagi in the shop

    30s reload per fish maybe, as store description states 120s reload

    WOWs - Motivation for New Players

    Most b!tching is aimed at potato players, as there is no shortage of those who fail and yolo their way through simply to make funny boat noises at tier 10 or in their shiny brand new tier 9 premium.
