Would a french style gameplay work? Usually they work best past mid game (from my experience unless im playing them wrong lol).

Honestly, didnt think of this lol. Yeahh ill just post the first games ill have with her tommorrows.

Dam thats a nice game espcially with two CV's in play. Hmm starting to see that she might be a solid light cruiser afterall. (Had some peeps in gen chat in-game saying she is ok or leander being better, but i wasn't that interested in comparisons with her at that time more or less how the ship plays.). Either way i have good idea now, Ill play her in the morning tomorrow as that will be easier for me. Kinda miffed that i didn't get de grasse but...i can't really complain.

True, didn't expect it to have a spotter plane doe so thats a nice surprise. But hey im glad i got her anyways im not sure which are the worst prems at tier 6 anyways. Hmm should of asked in my opening post if she is worthwhile for operations of anykind.

Ok, Reading those who have posted so far has been very useful as @Tyrendian89 said i pick EM mainly due to not being a fan of slow turret traverses on light cruisers (i know but shes my only tier 6 prem and i just got her from the event). Either way gud stuff, will go for CE first then IFHE. Concerned about CV's but then fighters don't stop the initial strike so i guess spotter plane would be useful (especially against island huggers like the smoll USN Cruiser lines). Also will learn to manage the smoke to time it right. Hope her rudder shift is gud enough for kiting but ill guess ill learn either way. Thanks! 'w'

Damm. Clearly missed some gold material.

I think i might need this while playing royal navy cv's lol. Energy drink girl more like boom and bloody zoom girl xD

Fair enough. You still need to dodge though since AA is still effective against bad players, unless losing planes is a new thing now. I just got the impression the entire line was really bad, especially on youtube and reddit who seem to be kinda vocal about this. Not only that but why are there no guides on how to play these ships by now? Even if something does change a simple guide on how the royal navy line works for example and exmaples games? (only seem to see very sparse gameplay all of it from 7-9months ago with top tier being the most recent and his vids showing the royal navy line to be less adequate). Oh btw had like 3 peeps in the reeeework thread tell more about them but included you in them as well.

Thought you typed thick skull then lol. AA would probs be a very gud buff for them and turret angles as well.

Whats the point of this thread again?

Why doesn't wargaming do this in general? Yes i know about Money but they could of just made some ships up for those premiums at tier 9 and 10 giving them unique loadouts or even featuring ships that wouldn't fit in the tech trees at all. You could even have two DD, CV and maybe another CL or CA line. Could of done this with the other nations too even if the ships didnt exist. I don't know i just like things to make sense from a progression sense of view.

ahh... Thought that already happend lol.

Only sometimes ahh ok then. Sinop buff it is!

Oh theres a second kremlin nerf? How severe? @Tyrendian89 Shame, but understandable im just so used to firing AP in my BB's so forget HE is there usually when using it would be a better option on an angled BB.

Get rid of the DFAA and replace it with hydro or more heals. shame you can't switch between light and heavy shells which would actually make them more effective between different targets...but i guess that would increase the skill gap by quite a bit. (in general not just about puddings). @Elypse201 *pokes* pudding still gud toineh elypse?

Can you play conq with AP only? And is her AP viable against angled bb's? cus she will be my first tier 10 but im not interested in HE slinging (im not sure why wargaming gimped the british BB line so hard but then look at the disaster that is the british tech tree in wot's.)

Gets replaced with russian ‘lead lease’ version. da balans comrade! but gib her like 2-3km sec range with 20% better accuracy and either increase dispersion on main guns or make gun angles more usable. maybe better aa gfk’s and fdg’s seem pretty easy to strike with carriers. or just one of these idk.

@Sunleader if i was wargaming i would buff planes hp by 20% and 25% at low and high tiers respectively, time to turn 360 decrease by 5%, bomb and rocket accuracy increased by 10% and fire chance by 5% plus damage for bombs by 10%. And increase bomb pen by 2mm’s at tiers 4 and 6. And by 4mm’s at tiers 8 and 10. Knowing me i probs just made them a bit op lol especially with hermes, maybe just apply some of those at low and most at high tiers.

Think it does since when im logged here and go to the world of tanks forum it auto logs me there. Deleting cookies is one way and going into settings to get rid of any ‘remember’ this pass word thing too.

Ahh i see, maybe pen angles if needed. makes me wonder if it would of been possible to repair her instead of was it repulse? In the same dry dock. i would like to see prince of wales in this game, not sure what speciality wargaming will give her (not dfaa pls). But still.

No the atlas is a bad assualt when there are far better assualts out there that do its job and more. The mech is nothing more than a meme. and yes the tier system does correlate to your performance otherwise going down wouldnt be a thing. ive noticed peeps focus assaults even when i play lights or mediums since they tend to have the heaviest firepower and also tend to get left behind. anyways this has nothing to do with wows so lets end that here.

True, I'd rather not have a line gimped for one singular purpose making them even more unpopular because of them introducing a new class. Im not sure how popular the RN compared to others, but yeah don't see a bright future for the line if thats the case. I wouldn't seeing miss illustrious in-game at some point as well. Oh and miss london is the premium for the new british heavy cruiser line!

https://wows-numbers.com/ships/ winrates for tier 10 bb's. Apperantly Thunderer, ohio and bourgogne are classed as 'regular' ships for some reason. *shrugs*

Maybe reload, aa and range buff?
