    Fastest way to Make Credits?

    JB would be better at dispatching anything broadside due to Reload Booster, for slapping targets not willing to show broadside while having at least some HE resistance Yamasushi is better.

    On other hand, slow shell velocity and thus "moon arcs" allow US light cruisers to (ab)use almost any island, even at relatively short distances.

    Island is cruiser waifu for a reason. Besides, just because ship have long range, doesn't necessarily mean she will be effective while you will be spotted and shot at anyway. Just tack Spotter instead Radar on Monty and feel the... futility (not sure if Montpelier have spotter option, regular Cleve does)

    Target Acquisition increases draw range, proximity spotting from 2km to 3km and torpedo detection. only instance where you might need draw range would be Shimakaze with meme 20km torps, as she can't see that far latter two aren't bad per se, but this upgrade shares slot with Concealment. Even during Year of the Carrier concealment reigns supreme. Only instances where you can get away without Concealment upgrade are hightier French cruisers, when you get bored of island camping and want to make use of their speed and Khabarovsk, because WG thought gunboat DD with battleship kind of rudder shift time will be funny

    I'm all for bringing all carriers to Enterprise level of balans. For balans reasons of course

    PSA: Invisible flak

    GZ had some working as intended bomb flight time during "release" IIRC?

    PSA: Invisible flak

    Thank god I'm not the one who coded AA (or netcode for that matter) I recall back in glorious early WoT days, when WG was merely developing company, SerB mentioned he had to make small software to compare changes to avoid any undocumented changes, mostly to reduce cases of "why tank stopped turning right when I've changed hull traverse speed" and whatnot. Nontheless, WG is still going to do WG things. For someone wearing Beta Tester forum badge, you should be accustomed to it by now

    The Revenue Management Levers: Pricing

    And yet WG made CV rework like socialism - heroically fights with issues unknown in any other system

    Dynamic Crosshairs how do they work?

    Dynamic scales with zoom, unlike static, which is, well, static and doesn't change with zoom.

    The Revenue Management Levers: Pricing

    Well, planes remain in your control (albeit with limited maneuverability as they are still in attack mode) when you watch ordnance travelling through space and time. You just don't see where planes are going, so you've got invulnerability and speed bump. Because WG assumed players are too potato to RMB and look at fireworks manually

    TL'DR where are 12k alpha AP bombs for nippons for balans reasons, obviously

    Well, wasn't AP bomb that caused significant emotional event on Arizona in '41 basically battleship grade AP projectile with fins attached?

    Well, Conqueror HE to the citadel can be as much, if not more devastating simply by sheer virtue of throwing more of them. Every 30s. Without worry of running out of shells...

    Newbie questions, bear with me, plz

    If you mean recalling with F, only way of "teleporting" is doing accelerated recall/bailout. Otherwise any use of F key within any sort of AA will end with "press F to pay respect for shot down pilots" And to "get gud" with CVs I'm afraid you need to get familiar with exploits/bugs as such. Considering they were reported like months ago and still stand, you can assume they are working as intended and they fit into WG understanding of "reducing skill gap", one of the reasons why old RTS carriers were "bad"
  19. Panocek

    Newbie questions, bear with me, plz

    Keep in mind to look for tutorials dated "2019", as there are quite a few for old RTS iteration Besides, for Campaigns you don't have to do all the tasks, you can repeat already completed tasks to get required amount of stars, without rewards obviously. So in theory you should be able to skip CV related tasks.

    Newbie questions, bear with me, plz

    Well, campaigns towards "Legendary" Yamamoto and Halsey are all part of the plan to extract money from players, either for Free Exp conversion, premium account sales or port slots and for Carriers, give them a shot at least up to tier 6 (because tier 4 are universally crap) simply to get an idea what their limitations are. Like oh so famous "unlimited planes"

    Newbie questions, bear with me, plz

    1) no, there is no option of "accelerating crew training" in WoWs. After eliting ship, any exp will simply pile up. For captain training, stack signal flags, camouflages with exp and captain exp bonus and good ol Premium Account. For getting them... Signals daily crate, completing Campaign Tasks, participating in events often give flags/camos, same with Public Tests, just create account there with IDENTICAL email as your account here, so you can get the goodies. April Fools/Halloween events are also good way of obtain Elite Commander Exp - pool of exp you use to (re)train captains and level them, you gather that usually by playing with maxed out (19lvl) captains 2) you will be able to continue on 3rd task even if your premium account run out.
  22. If you mean WoWs account... thats on WG servers, so you can log in into the game and keep your progress on any computer, assuming up to date WoWs can be found there. You will need to re-do audio/video/controls tho.
  23. And what will provide WG more monies pizza fleet you can get for free or fleet of prembotes
  24. EN also is of workings, handy apologems are handy. And new UI is nice as well And Akashi skin quest is for those... artistically inclined

    PSA: Invisible flak

    I remember flak usually missing when slowing down from boost as well... and most squad wipes I can remember happened when run out of boost. So, working as intended? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Also not sure if flak that struck you was coming from Scharnhorst, as you just entered her long range AA (4.8km away at the moment of flak spawning within squadron), as FdG was pewpewing "with prediction" in front of you. And actually that might be the case, as for Scharn your planes were flying without boost, so base lead, which proved to be effective
