    Buying a new ship

    @tocqueville8You can't stay angled to whole map and you can't just sit at range. It's one of the fastest BBs, u gotta use the speed not in 1 or A line, but all over the map.

    Buying a new ship

    Except show broad side in Hood and you are guaranteed to get dev struck by an enemy BB or to get crippled until the end of game at minimum.

    Buying a new ship

    The good battlecruiser among them is Brandenburg which is quite fun when specced for secondaries, Alabama and Vanguard are good Battleships, both maneuverable enough, Roma is a BB with good concealment also with inconsistent guns, Indomitable is a 2D CV lacking torps, Hood is a big, fat but also fast sausage like battlecruiser with not the most accurate guns. I'd suggest Brandenburg, Alabama or Vanguard.

    The best T8 US cruisers

    T8, Baltimore for free. It could be also Anchorage, Congress, Rochester or Wichita for doubloons. But all depends on the taste. Different gimmicks provide different purposes and serve to different tastes.

    Your Brand New Ship

    Z44, Florida, Flandre, Yukon, Agincourt, Ise, Leone are the only crate ships i tried for a game or two so far. There is another new approx. 20 ships waiting to be specced and played at the port. About the ships i played, of course a couple of games are not enough to form an opinion about them, yet. But for quick first impressions; Z-44: If you don't have Benham, don't worry. Z-44 covers its absence good enough. Z-44 is a very easy to play DD with minute reload of torps waiting to unleash hell on enemy ships. I really liked it. Florida: It is a ship that can fire good AP salvos and really hurt enemy ships if they present broad sides. If not, AP damage output becomes minimal, even HE can be an option against upper tier BBs. Though, I can't say it is really that impressive. Flandre: First impressions, i like it. I was thinking of getting it with dubs anyway but came out of crate. Yukon: One of the ships that doesn't like to be up-tiered. Yes, it can heal and come back but every time it gets hit, it gives you the feeling of "look, what they have done to my boy". Good ship, not bad, but tier 7 facing tier 9s often prevent it from being impressive. So, this one and Florida both have tier problems more than a ship problem. Agincourt: Absolutely fun ship. Played just one game where CVs and upper tier ships were involved. Good hitting guns, very good secondaries, slow speed and no AA. Still, especially for its tier it is a strong and fun ship to play. Ise: Played a game with upper tiers and CVs where enemy crushed our team and had a landslide quick victory. Didn't have time to see what this ship is about yet. Yes, i sent some planes and did some torp hits, also hit with the guns but still not enough data to have even a first impression. Leone: This is a DD that requires patience. It's got ultra slow torps, shells go up to space before they land, Usain Bolt can run 100mt until the guns reload. I really didn't understand the purpose of this DD. Why bother creating such a ship for the game and as a premium while there are much better free tech tree DDs? Interesting. I can share my impressions about others when i play.

    Tulsa or Carnot?

    On a serious note....nah! There is nothing serious, it's just a question; Carnot and/or Tulsa owners how you like your ships and which would you choose over the other? Disclaimer: I am not asking about the technical details of the ships or their play styles. I don't need the educational information because i have already read and watched about these ships. As usual, I'm only asking for the opinion of ship owners that have hands-on experience in them. Thank you. Okay, last note, any news about possible new FXP ships, Sherman or Sevastopol maybe?

    Remind me, I'm stupid

    Remind me, I'm stupid" Reminding once again, you are stupid. Please don't forget next time.
  11. When you want to earn more silver credits.
  12. Didn't even spec them yet. I may not be able to play them tonight. I got maybe 15-20 new ships in the port waiting to be played xD Will let you know
  13. Used the coupons and got FDR, Carnot and Rochester. Only ship left in the armory is Tulsa.

    Subs get buffs, other changes

    Changes are humongous 5000+ HP to a 9K HP ship. They just don't want subs to be sunk and want to fill the games with them. I'll tell you what, we like this game and play it. They, unlike us, like the money not the game. Most of them must be playing it seldom just to fulfill some tasks and for nothing else. Any sane personnel at WG who likes this game and knows the history of the game wouldn't let this kind of of changes to be implemented. This is what's sad...

    Subs get buffs, other changes

    Well, the first step was to forcefully add subs into the game, especially into the randoms. Next step was to start implementing buffs until they become popular. They will do the same with super ships, though i don't know how they can fit T11s into T10 lines without breaking the game (as if the game is not broken already-another discussion issue)...

    Tulsa or Carnot?

    I always get the ships before captains, it's a personal preference of course

    Santa Crates, what did you get?

    Very nice for a free small gift box.
  20. Ragnar can’t take on a Druid, I know cuz played both. Ragnar’s radar is useless against Druid. Druid is a close combat DD. Ragnar is a mid-long range spammer and harmless dd ambusher. When it radars a Druid after being spotted and they start exchanging fires, depending on the position of Ragnar, Ragnar can lose half his HP when running away while Druid can heal up and still be intact. Ragnar needs to melt Druid from distance when it is busy with other ships or if it is radar/cv spotted by teammates. Otherwise in a close knife fight Druid sinks any other DD, including Khaba, Kleber and Marceau.

    Which Coal Ship

    I think LWM is still active. On the other hand, @Yuzorah is EU server's LWM. He's been doing fantastic job with new ships, ships in testing and other information since 2016. And hence, I believe he deserves much more recognition and support. Check out his site and you can find pretty much all the info you need; https://thedailybounce.net/category/world-of-warships/
