Maybe this?

Sending an AA ship each flank means a safe area for his bombers each flank and a fire help for his fighters each flank.

Exactly. For those 2 AP is better.

So far it looks like only the older premium ships are on sale, not the newer ones. Kidd is rather new, so I would not expect it to be on sale.

You are not able to understand what I said, lol. As expected.

Depends on your playstyle, but you lose range or reload for mostly 50% more acceleration, but only when moving forward, and DM is definitely a camping ship.

I have the Zao one and is definitely an upgrade, while Shima was definitely a shitty one. After my non-pro judgement, the definitely useful ones are for BBs: Republik, Yamato and GK. Cruisers: Zao and Hindenburg. Maybe Des Moines (arguable) and HIV (arguable). DDs: Grozovoi. Maybe Gearing (arguable). CVs: Hard to say considering will be reworked soon and I don t like to play them cause they re broken . But it also depends on your playstyle.

We don t know yet how much steel they will give for a rank one, it will be probably arround 2.5 -5 k steel, so at least one rank 1, or one rank 1 and a rank 5, for example. You have all the details here, so far they gave 2.5 k for a rank 1in the past, which is kinda low: https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/updates/introducing-arsenal/

Yes, from what they have shown, only for Wooster you can chose between the eagle or shark pattern, the DM and Salem have the same freedom type camo as Cleveland or Baltimore.

I don t know because I never used rental ships, have enough tier 10 ships. Because each rental ship has a clock on it showing when it will disapear, on the last day just move it back to Chapayev so you don t have the surprise to have that captain retrained for the tier 1 of that line!

In theory, if it had about 1/2 of the speed of the radar waves, it would be possible to outrun radar...

You re making a cofusion in moving captains from a ship to another, whish is retraining, and resetting captain skills which is something else. To move a captain to a premium ship or one of this rental ships, it needs no retraining (which normally costs 500 gold). To reset the captain skills (the 19 points of skill, which costs 25 gold for a point) was available for free 1 week before clanwar and should be available again 1 week after clanwar.

Nope, they can only ruin 1 flank while the enemy can win on the other flank. You can also torp their smoke with 2-3 targets inside for easy hits. The CV div can send an AA ship each flank, while CV can be anywhere.

Frankly, any tier 8 premium is a waste of money with the current tier 8 MM.

They work just like premium ships, you can put any captain from same country in them without retraining. Just try it. The free reset for skills works ONLY 1 week before and 1 week after clanwar.

How much steel u already have? Flint, 3 x rank 1 is 11.6 k steel, so a rank 1 would be 3.8 k steel, a Flint , 5 x rank 1 is 14k so a rank 1 would be 2.8 k steel. Based on this, I would say that the next rank 1, if they give steel for it, should be 3-3.5 k steel.

Nope. Wrong calculation. French DD speed boost is 20% (at least on Aigle so far), while the other DDs have 8%. While base speed for both Khaba and this is 43 knots. With speed boost both, Frenchie is 12% faster than Khaba.

No comment. *edited*

Lol, so 10 BBs per game are fine, but 8-10 DDs are not? Lol.

You all forget that dumbing down their own game may be a WG move to get more players.

Exactly, it s the only class that hard counters 2 other classes, while being countered only by itself.

Problem is that CV is able to strike BBs, DDs, and even cruisers when Def AA is on cooldown. Is the only class that can counter 3 classes, while being countered only by itself. DDs were supposed to be the counter for BBs

The funny thing about this event was that many BB players were complaining in chat about the 5 DDs/team games. So, I always replied in chat: "But 5 BBs/team are OK?"

From 300mm+ (which is tier 3 BB), HE pen already overmatches 50+ mm armor, so it does not really matter. About the tier 9 FR BB, who was the subject of discussion, and the armor of the tier 9 and 10 BBs, against who HE would be usable if bow on or heavily angled: Tier 10 BBs: FR bow and deck 32 mm, UK bow and deck 32 mm, GE bow 60 mm deck 50 mm, USA bow 32mm deck 38mm, JP bow 32 deck 57. Tier 9 BBs: FR bow and deck 32mm, UK bow and deck 32 mm, USA bow 32 mm deck 38 mm, JP bow and deck 32mm. Going tier 8 and 7 is pointless, armor is the same or gets worse. All overmatched by Alsace 380/6 = 63.3 mm HE penetration And, tanana, your great discovery, tier 9 GE BB, bow and aft 32mm, superstructure 19 mm, and deck is 66% 50mm (the half where the 19 mm superstructure is located), and only 33% of the deck is 80 mm. But lol, you must have felt saved when you found it, now at least you had some tiny little thing to prove your amazing theory. The other examples, 3 were the CITADEL areas of some squishy cruisers, Neptune and Minotaur included lol, on which any sane BB player would use AP and not HE, the rest were carriers, who are mostly (90%+ of the target) 19 mm except the deck, and the only valid one was only a part of only one BB, or more exactly only 33% of the deck of a single BB (66% of the deck, superstructure, bow and aft fully HE overmatched) but i guess even you felt only 1 find was not enough to justify your revolutionary theory. Lol, just lol. Now, to stay in the same direction, maybe you also need me to explain to you why IFHE is not considered useful for cruisers with 200mm+ guns?! And definitely not for any 300+ mm gun?!

Nope, the entire issue was created by a guy too proud who, to prove he s not wrong , was picking at straws and found 60+ mm armor resistant to HE overmatch on carriers and UK cruisers CITADELS. Yeah, well, I m happy with a 3% error which applies both ways, both to UK and FR BBs, so it can easily be ignored. Unless you re saying that UK gets 100% and only FR gets 97%.
