Of course Germany needs a premium light cruiser, and the Koenigsberg is a nice base to work from. The other nations are catered for in terms of premium light cruisers. And in the ridiculous case of the USSR, I would argue that they are over-catered-for. Looking at tiers 5+ (which is what you need in order to qualify for missions & directives), other nations have. Japan: Yahagi (In development) France: De Grasse Royal Navy: Not needed - the Brits have special needs in that department. USA: Marblehead, Marblehead Lima, Atlanta, Flint, Montpelier USSR: Krasny Krim, Murmansk, Molotov, Admiral Makharov,Lazo, Mikhail Kutuzov Germany: Nichts, Nothing, Rien, Niente, Nada, Τίποτα, Nic, Niets, Nanimonai, Nihil, Xejn, Ingenting, Dim byd, gornisht ....or to put it less formally...bugger all.

Oh Yes please! Pretty Please! Anything but London, in fact (and I say that as a Londoner)

Thank you for posting @PervoKris and @nambr9 I feel similar to both of you. (though I have not quite gotten to the stage that your guys have) I feel better now that I know that I am not alone .

1 Atlanta 2 Tirpitz 3 Cossack 4 Scharnhorst 5 Harugumo And just for balance - least favourite ships 5 Normandie 4 Dallas 3 Mutsuki 2 Minotaur 1 Prinz Eitel Friedrich

My situation is the same as yours. I am not sure what to spend the Soviet Tokens on. I think I'll go for the boxes as you suggest. P.S. In keeping with the Soviet spirit, do selected people who are high-up in the Party Wargaming get to spend their tokens in special shops?

Fell off my chair in amazement! I joined this circus in September 2015, and only have 11 19-point cammanders. I have grinded 66 other captains with 10-or-more points though, due to my policy of developing one captain per ship - which I now think was a bad thing. One of the many mistakes that I have made in this game.

Best horn? It is not yet in the game, but when it arrives it will be HMS Antelope, naturally.

If Wargaming make changes to game mechanics which are so fundamental that players need to rethink their captain skills to cater for a changed meta........then they have a moral obligation IMHO to offer free respecs for the affected captains.

I'm going for team "Burnout" on this one.

I've no collected all the available free containers. No ships in any of them. I got nothing int he previous "Air Supply" containers either. ("A chance to get a combat mission with one of the following British ships as its reward: Edinburgh (Tier VIII), Hood (Tier VII), Duke of York (Tier VII), or Vanguard (Tier VIII)") Hopefully my luck will change when ("if") there are chances to get early access to the upcoming Russian BB line.

Still wrong Colonel. The old mirror matchmaking system was simple. For every ship on the human team the bot team had a similar one. A Baltimore vs a Baltimore. A Shimakaze vs a Shimakaze. The ship types still match in the new matchmaking (exception the bots get a BB for every human CV) However the ships are no longer mirrored. Eg Humans may have two tier 10 Zao, but bots might have one Zao and one Minotaur. (or even a Hindi and a Minotaur)

I have not paid any attention to modern music since Mozart's last hit single.

From the announcement: At lower tiers, the previous rules will apply, allowing up to three carriers per team to be matched to a battle. This is due to an increased popularity of carriers at those tiers, and their overall weaker influence on the outcome of a battle. Is this true? Are CVs REALLY more popular at lower tiers since the rework? Just asking, because I don't see many CVs in coop.

Random battles are no fun for me, I'm afraid. Never have been. Unfortunately I still feel the need to play (due to my inability to totally conquer my addiction) - so coop is a damage limitation exercise. ON TOPIC Please, Wargaming, put the counter of the" number of players online" back on the main port UI screen.

Thank you for explaining that. Before, I was just mildly annoyed at seeing the cliche being overused. Now I am "Disgusted of Tonbridge Wells"

who started this cliche? "xxx is Love! xxx is life" t've seen it so many times. I don't follow popular culture so I'm baffled where it comes from.

#1 Because Wargaming realised that I find this the most interesting thing on the port screen, and therefore made it a (slightly) hidden feature. #2 See post #39 upthread

Fair enough. My suggested "work around" in the meantime is to simply reduce the price of each ship by the cost of a port slot.

Of course I understand that you wanted a Dido to match your Aeneas! (Obviously a fan of the opera by Purcell)

I read that post rather quickly . . . . . . . and had quite a shock until I went back and re-read it.

Well, 12 hours later it is still closed so maybe it WAS intentional. Anyhow, No bugs in stronk Russian programming. Bugs only found in decadent capitalist software! Russian software contain only "Features"

Any tiers except 6 & 8 are OK for me. If you held my feet to the fire, I'd say tier 7 has more favourite ships, but the gameplay of tier 5 is more fun than tier 7..

Thanks for the reply. I do have one of the Doe brothers in Pensacola (most used heavy cruiser - operations). He has 14 points = 1-PT; 1-EL; 2-EM; 2-AR; 3-Demo; 4-CE; + 1 spare Another Doe brother is in Baltimore. He has 10 points. All spare because the operation that I use him for is being reworked Other captains: Des Moines (19 points) 1-PT; 1-EL; 2-AR; 3-Demo; 4-CE; + 8 spare points Worcester (19 Points) 1-PT; 2-AR; 3-Demo; 4-IFHE; 4-CE; + 5 spare points Cleveland (10 points) All spare because the operation that I use him for is being reworked Helena/Atlanta (18 points) 1-PT; 2-AR; 3-Demo; 4-IFHE; 4-AFT; 4-CE;
