Ah, that brings back childhood memories. Think I still got some of the toys at my old folk's place. As for Ms. Hood: she's from the Azur Lane collaboration, and would as such speak either Chinese or Japanese (Azur Lane being a Chinese game, but the collab likely being from the Japanese publisher/localisation). Haven't bothered to listen to her voice yet though, since I'm quite happy with Ms Kongou's voice.

So I noticed that she can stealth torp from almost 2½km away. Not sure if this is going to be a thing or not, but its something I guess.

Used my coupon to get the PEF so I got a tier 6 battlecruiser to play with. Haven't regretted it so far.

Why does your post have a scroll bar for the text?

Just give me more IJN shipgirls. ^_^ Also, I wonder how they'll gimmick the RN CAs. I already read something about zombie heal at high tiers, but I doubt that's going to be it.

For the Coal/Steel/Free-Exp/Reward ships: I'm fine if they get rebalanced when necessary. Agreed, and looking at one of the WoT fansites, they actually have charts showing how a given tank performs on average for each level of player skill. So you can see how a 45% winrate player does in a given tank and how a 65% winrate player does. Which is probably one of the reasons why WG can be a bit slow with balance changes, because they have a fuller picture of each vehicle's performance, when the community only sees a small part of it.

Not that many afaik: Mikasa, Ishizuchi, Mutsu, Ashitaka, Kii, Musashi, Yuubari, Azuma, HSF Graf Spee.

You call nine 356mm cannons at tier 7 a lot? May I remind you that the Kongou has eight of them at tier 5? And the Fusou gets twelve of them at tier 6? Now, if the guns were 406/410mm then yes, nine of them would be a lot at tier 7... ...Until you remember that Ashitaka has ten of them.

Might've been the airplane lifts instead then, along with various means of adapting existing plane designs for use on carriers, including for the Ju87 and Bf109.

Meant in terms of the (steam?) catapults used to launch aircraft from the carriers, and stuff like that.

Wasn't Japan the first to actually commission a purpose-designed carrier though? Namely the Houshou which was commissioned in 1922, while the Hermes took two years longer despite having been laid down years prior. And, afaik, the Germans took a lot of advice from the Japanese when designing their carriers.

And how many CV designs did germany have, actually? *edit* Great, had a connection error and 3 replies popped up. >_>

I'm certain that a prototype from the mid-30s is lying around somewhere for Wargaming to find. ;) Wouldn't be the first time Wargaming "finds" a prototype or some such. Or in case of WoT; inventing an entire branch of vehicles from scratch (Chinese Tank Destroyers).

Would be fun if we'd get that Swedish sub with the stirling engines.

Got an idea of it now? People can't read jack of what you posted.
