Hi all, I am afraid that getting him 100% free is not possible... From Reddit: Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, The "Clear Vision" was also temporarily removed? Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Number of USN Tier IX "Benham" DDs in WoWs... Few days ago WG posted some InfoGraphics regarding the "Rouge Wave" event but they didn't post the most interesting info - how many "Benham" DDs were issued... "Rogue Wave: Summing up the Event!" https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/general-news/rogue-wave-results/ If we take a look at "MapleSyrup" we see the following data: http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/ShipAvgList/ShipAvgList.html Week of 2019/07/06 = 112 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" Week of 2019/07/13 = 158 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" Week of 2019/07/20 = 350 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" Week of 2019/07/27 = 1102 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" Week of 2019/08/03 = 594 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" Week of 2019/08/17 = 776 Unique Player IDs playing at least 1 Random game in "Benham" If we take a look at "WoWs Stats & Numbers": https://wows-numbers.com/ship/3761125360,Benham/?p=7 We see that there are 612 players with more than 40 battles in "Benham" Overall... the numbers look rather low and possibly just 1000+ "Benham" DDs were issued in total... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, I can't remember when I last had "Manual AA" skill for my captains... As for new skill "Massive AA" I think that cooldown penalty "erases" the benefit... possibly the "Deff AA" + clever sector management can reap better results? Leo "Apolo11"

Hi all, It wasn't that hot and humid this year around... just 1-2 days with temperatures above +30 degrees Centigrade... What was especially interesting is that sea temperatures rose to unprecedented 29 degrees Centigrade (sea temperatures varied between 25 and 29 degrees centigrade)... I can't remember when the sea was that hot... it was like in the tropics / Caribbean... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, How did you do with the "French Whaling"? https://frenchwhaling.in.fkn.space/ Since I didn't get any (really - not a single French DD mission ) French DDs I went only for 200 + 300 = 500 "Republic Tokens"... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, The author of "French Whaling" site posted the results of event regarding players who visited his page... InfoGraphics: Reddit post: Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, I only keep replays when I kill 3 or more ships (I killed 2 in that battle)... sorry... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Two nice "Yamato" games from today... #1 Almost "Kraken"... again just 1 salvo too short... #2 This was very very hard... 2.500 BaseXP win... it was tense till the end... if only all battles were like this... Funny enough this battle finished the Fight with us Week #3" mission (the lkast stage was 1.900+ BaseXP requirement) which brought me 3 last possible standard "French Destroyers Containerr" and in it there was "Tier VII French DD "Vauquelin" mission... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Oh boy... I completely forgot about the "Fight with us Week #3" and its huge demand for 5th and final mission... the 1900+ BaseXP... Well... I did it in my "Yamato" (2500 Base XP) and I was granted 3 standard "French Destroyers Container"... the very last one (and last container I was able to get in any case) was "Tier VII French DD "Vauquelin" mission... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, My last "SuperContainer" was 4 months (yes that is 120+ days) ago... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Powercreep of older ships (for example German BB "Scharnhorst") and possible ways to remedy it... First of all I must say that I really love my "Scharnhorst" - I haven't played her that much in "Random" but I did play her elsewhere whenever applicable. It was always very nice and fun ship! Unfortunately, with many other ships around, I didn't play her for long time (possibly from "Snowflakes" event). So... with new Ranked "Sprint" #5 I played her again in earnest and I got to Rank #1 rather quickly: but it was not "easy ride"... With all those "Sinop" RU BBs "infecting" the Ranked I really really felt totally out of place... the one and only thing that "saves" the "Scharnorst" was the reload time... Here are current "Random" battled stats for Tier VII BBs: https://wows-numbers.com/ship/3763287856,Scharnhorst/ Have you got similar experience? What do you think could be done to remedy this powercreep? Leo "Apollo11" P.S. Over weekend I accidentally press "Random" instead of Ranked" with my "Scharnhorst" and, of course, ended up as the sole Tier VII in Tier IX match... Oh boy... it was so hard... I did manage to stay alive till the end and my team won but I struggled to do damage and barely won one-on-one fight against RU CA "Dmitri Donskoi"...

Hi all, I was on my Summer vacation and didn't have time to play Ranked until now... it is as bad as always... some things never change... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, My final tally is one big fat absolute 0 (ZERO)... I even bought 2 "Premium" containers against my better judgement and they produced nothing as well... so... my usual "luck" with this WG RNG lottery continues on with every single event (I think that I can count on fingers of one hand the ship missions I got from all similar events)... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Maxim, I forgot to tell you that "FreeXP" counter was also broken (i.e. it happened at same time when "Duration" was broken)... BTW, can you please tell us more about MxStat MOD AddOn you introduced recently? Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Back home... after usual 3+ weeks of summer vacation in beautiful "King's Landing"... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubrovnik Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, There is (as expected) huge discussion about his on Reddit as well: There the @Sub_Octavian of WG answered at the start: Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, For me it is still 0 (ZERO) as well... but I played just a bit because I am on summer vacation... can play practically only after 1AM... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Still saving for "Stalingrad"... it is long and hard grind... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Still one fat big 0 (ZERO) for me as well... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, This is what we had last year: https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/sales-and-events/three-more-years/ Somehow I am really apprehensive of this year... I didn't buy anything from "Summer Sale" because there was no discount for Doubloons at all and now I am afraid that they will lessen this anniversary event down significantly this year... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, I got one big 0 (ZERO)... Since this happened before in almost all similar events (I think I got lucky in just one past event) I really am not that much angry... really... believe me... Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, "Frenchwhaling - Brought to you by Rukenshia on the EU server, the same idiot that built Steelwhaling" https://frenchwhaling.in.fkn.space Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, Thanks Maxim - much appreciated! Leo "Apollo11"

Hi all, I use "Map Rotation" option... Leo "Apollo11"
