  1. I recall you can get about 300 tokens for "free", and you need 600 for a perma camo. So you don't really get any permacamos from this event.

    Shells still falling short

    It's a feature komrades. If you don't like glorious aiming assist you can shoot without target lock.

    Research Bureau Reset?

    I did the Harugumo regrind twice, then the French BB line twice, now almost finished with the 2nd regrind of Russian BBs and I just started the German BBs. Not much else to do when you have all the tX ships in this game.

    What do you guys think of the hideous new ship screen?

    It has the same functionality as before. It's a fresh look. I don't mind it.

    Waterline ap against german bbs

    Against such "thin" and lightly armored ships I am very used to overpens with high caliber AP. Plunging fire is reliable, but at closer range it's good to wait for the ship to be moderately angled - thus the AP shell has more time to arm and detonate within. But 10 overpens is still about half the HP of Smolensk ^^

    Waterline ap against german bbs

    I rarely aim at the waterline of anything in general. A good rule of thumb is to aim slightly above waterline. That way your dispersion will send a few shell at the waterline anyway, the most shells will go midship, and some will disperse on the deck. In particular, you can citadel some German BBs when penetrating the bow/stern plating and going into the citadel or barbettes. But I find it inconsistent, even at close range.

    Reset your Zao line for fun research points!

    Advice - when you choose a line to reset, care most about the t8 and t9 ships, as they take the most games to progress. You can sealclub through t6-7 with any trashbote.

    so wg can nerf premiums ?

    It's about time they nerfed Enterpise. Next - blanked nerf for attack aircraft :)

    Killing Venezia? Are you serious?

    Venezia nerf shouldn't be a surprise. Remember CBs season 9 had mostly 6v6 Venezia match-ups in hurricane league? I expect more nerfs to this ship in the the future.
  10. I bought it and I like it. It's a fun battle cruiser. Alaska is still the strongest pick overall due to radar, but Agir can make more aggressive plays.

    Having fun with Agir

    Poor HE and turret arcs? Chunky movement? No worries, you're not a kiting light cruiser! Use your concealment to sneak up on the enemy and surprise them with your AP alpha and torpedoes! Enjoy :) IX Agir: How to have FUN with! (short highlight reel)

    Having fun with Agir

    I tend to die almost every battle with Agir, if not on the initial push almost always later on. Not a great survivalist in 12vs12 games when you can get focused by 5+ ships, but my goal is to take 2 ships early in the battle and let it play out:) My ideal game would be push in, get 3x dev strike with the torpedoes and main guns, then ram a 4th ship. Can dream.. Long range AP works well, but with the poor pen values you have to aim for upper belts or superstructure on BBs, otherwise you get shatters. Overall her torpedo and turret arcs, as well as her poor HE, make Agir a weak kiting ship, but a decent pusher. I keep having very fun games with her.

    Anyway to disable dockyard?

    You mean you don't feel like grinding AND spending doubloons on the next hot piece of ship? Preposterous I declare!
  14. I'm sure flami will answer any questions you have regarding this ship

    Venezia and her SAP... Simply too powerful ?

    Clan battles season 9 cruisers/dd distribution (my estimate): 60% Pasta / 30% Stalinium / 10% other Carrier distribution: 95% Hakuruy / 4% Midway Venezia is meta because she has high survivability - camo, smoke, armor, rudder, turning radius, speed, fighter, decent AA. Her SAP makes her the designated cruiser and DD assassin, what matters most is the ability to deliver accurate alpha strike at distance.

    Limit for Stalingrads in CWs

    7 !!! Never seen 7 so far. But 6 I do see every game. Just roll with it and have fun :)
  17. Thank you WG for the fun we had during this April Fool's Day. Need more special events like this one. Highlight of 5km cyclone map - And the one with the Babby spawn exchange - Have fun, stay safe!
  18. viceadmiral123

    Some codes

    Those seem to be for the April 1st containers, thanks for sharing!
  19. +1 Also option to reskill all captains during discount would be nice.

    Jean Bart no guns left...

    This is an issue I have noticed with the French BBs - they lose turrets more easily compared to other nations. You can mitigate it by purchasing Main Armaments mod (kind of obligatory on most ships anyway) and keeping range from your targets. If you get close and stay bow-in, you will lose your turrets. I've tried to angle my turrets during reload to increase the effective armor but I can't say it has helped me.

    Smolensk

    What do you speak about komrad, our ship falls within spreadsheet parameters and is finely tuned.
  22. viceadmiral123

    Graf Spee For OPs. A Sound Investment?

    I would say Graf Spee is too slow and there are ship with better firepower for her tier, but I don't play Ops much to know if she has a niche.
  23. viceadmiral123

    So what's supposed to be so good about this ship again? (Henri IV)

    Henri, hmm. It's a good ship for randoms, but we have Venezia and Smolensk to compete with it for competitive. Soon Venezia to be replaced by another Russian ship from the new branch.
  24. viceadmiral123

    Albemarle - worst ship in the game? advice needed.

    We all know which cruisers are blessed by Putin with 50mm platings and laser guns. But they don't count, they are special exception.
