One can get decent results by applying basic logic and understanding of game mechanics (which aren't that well explained on WG part, but thats a given considering their track record) -islands provide LoS cover from AA, while messing up with aiming when flying over them. So attack from the open and use island as AA cover. OR fly around island as LoS cover for TB to attack passing by ships -(ab)use the heck out of dmg reduction given to attacking planes when they are ready to drop, both for offense and defense -retain boost for actual attack run instead flying into position unless in extra hurry -don't fly into blobkriegs unless you have to -keep moving your carrier Top it off with speed boost gained after dropping ordnance, both for slingshot and quick recall, you can use taller islands to cut down on return vulnerability, as "safe altitude" is that, altitude.

Considering sector remains reinforced during switching, you can get timing right, so you're dealing maximum dakka most of the time.

Those are better left unanswered

Pan Asian tree

UK have 6 smokes, Aliexpress fleet have 5. Both can be used for disengaging, but latter actually last longer than a sneeze and have quite long generating time which can be useful at times. Both have about 30s window between smokes

Tack EM and turret traverse issue is gone, while you retain 8km fishes unlike Gnevny. Fushun also gets quicker rudder shift out of reasons, aliexpress smoke is vastly superior to UK one as well.

Icarus is floating case of speschul. Jervis at least have number of guns to saturate area, though still inferior to Gadjah Mada. Lightning on other hand is very comfortable ship (handling, camo, 360 turret traverse on all mounts), working in very uncomfortable environment. Torps leave something to be desired though as they are almost identical to Kiev ones, even more so as Cossack outguns and outruns her.

What did you expect on WoWs forums

Amusingly, DP 120mm on Lightning have noticeably better ballistics than USN 5" despite lower shell velocity and only 3-4kg extra shell weight. I guess Queen signed one way ticket to the Australia is only surpassed by Stalin signed gulag ticket

Only DDs with CL caliber guns are Gaede and Zed 23, both are... well, outgunned by IJN equivalent, winning potential fight simply due to amount of hp. Unless you count Mogami in CL config as DD. Which isn't that far off, but then she can tack 203mm because reasons. And then there is Takao class No matter how hard I look at it, 130mm guns are still not heavy cruiser caliber. But if they were designed to hit as one is another matter, one does not simply says "Its impossible" to Camrade Stalin By that logic, Croissant 139mm are battlecruiser guns and German 15cm are BB guns? as in firing plastic pellets

Light/Heavy refers to armament, not armor for cruiser Kebab could be fine T5/6 CL tho.

Well, IJN also have guns on board, and since recent buffs they surprisingly far from bad (on high tiers at least), so they are gunboats too Guessing "gunboats" for USN comes from their, well, gun DPM enabling them to stomp most destroyers up close and personal, like on cap. For open water long range jackassery, it would be hard to find WORSE guns in terms of ballistics. That or fact USN can't stealth torp until tier 7, so you default to guns anyway.

First, actual "gunboats" there is only one line, Russian one, leading to Kebabovsk. Rest are hybrids one way or another, either using their DPM molest other DDs on caps or bigger ships from the smoke. Grozo can be used in Kebab gameplay with some sort of success, but considering her perfectly serviceable concealment, its a waste of a DD unless all caps are taken and all DDs are bullied.

That vid is tad ancient, as Indentable got nerfed - she got Implacable bombs and rockets. No TB, so anything with reinforced deck will be floating middle finger to you, while DDs and occasional cruiser will get extra colonized.

Sneeki especially on IJN, on US its optional. +2 planes on other hand I find borderline mandatory on UK due to their 404 reserves not found, which triggers me as Implacable is the slowest T8 CV and is tied worst with Lexington from silver T8 carriers in concealment

Yuro is guy in general who, no matter how hard he tries, can't get 5 out of 2+2

fixed

Do you really want him to break 6k base exp?

Don't forget to recall during slingshot for extra GTFO speed

Which would be entirely avoidable by keeping players in control of the squadron entire time instead forcing him to watch his ordnance. Right mouse button exist for a reason if you want to see

Which kinda shows how much thought went into rework. -lets player watch bomb drop animation -what about planes? -give them immunity and speed boost -besterest idea camrade

If in doubt, working as intended. Maybe WG way of adding "depth" to the rework?

If you want tier 6 MM to be fixed... oh boy, you're for a treat once you get to tier 8
