I was thinking the same .. so KM DDs get kind if nerfed because AP was actually quite good against other DDs (same with Akizuki's AP). On the other hand, IFHE on the Akizuki is now kind of an awkward choice .. you don't need it vs other DDs but still need it vs other ships

Ah yes, forgot about that one. Also some balance between DDs; can't have 1 team with 3 IJN DDs and the other with USN or PA DDs ..

1/3/5/3

I don't understand this ..

With all the ARP versions you can have 1 for each troll build .. wouldn't recommend secondary build though

Tbh full AA Kongo is quite potent at its tier

Shokaku and Enterprise ? Lexington vs GZ might be interesting though if both CV players are equally skilled (but tbh I never met a GZ player so far that I couldn't outplay - teams on the other hand ...)

Imo it's an interesting T9 free xp ship .. more than the Musashi anyway.

I have 2 captains for that .. 1 shared between Cleveland and Atlanta, 1 shared between Kidd and Atlanta Second is just a troll build though .. like IFHE secondary GK

About Operations overall, any news on the hard mode ?

I use Manual AA on some captains, usually on the ship lines where I have 2 captains for (and that actually benefit from it). e.g. RN CLs, KM BBs, KM CAs, and Cleveland/Atlanta/Kidd

Played Hermes a couple of times tonight; each time a 5-star victory. And I finally got over 100 plane kills

We ran into a TTT-division tonight; @Tyrendian89 and his mates helped us secure a (hard-fought) victory !

Personal mission achieved ! 100+ plane kills in Hermes Operation And still easy to farm Free XP in Ops

Just saw a preview of the Boise by Flambass .. another T7 radar ship with 9.9km radar .. rip DDs

200mm AP

Just had a BBQ outside so I feel obliged to check this replay now ::edit:: Damage farming over 9000 I like seeing BBs burn and die That skinless Montana though .. probably on standard consumables as well Mandatory hackusations at the end ... you honoured the SCRUB name !

Only difference in tactic was that their BBs actually went into the D cap, while our potato train stayed 2 squares away from the cap .. Which allowed their Cruisers to get closer, provide radar support, etc ... Yes, the enemy team also had a lemming train, but at least they had some players who weren't / aren't utter potatoes; as they actually pushed to / through the cap. I'd rather have our whole lemming train die inside in the cap between enemy ships, than 2 squares away from it; at least then they would have tried something. Now they could as well have put down a rock on the keyboard and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

CHOO CHOO 4 minutes later ... They never captured D .. I capped A and B; only to be faced by 7 enemy ships from D as our entire f$cking lemming train died and only sunk 2 enemy ships I would prefer an actual potato rolling over a keyboard than these """players""".

Nearly 370k damage Send it to Jingles or something My first battle in Enterprise in a long time ... I was surprised to see those citadel ribbons Battle with @MortenTardo; we had a very """special""" team. AS Saipan who couldn't win an air fight vs a Hiryu; radar Cruisers that sailed at the back; but most of all ... the BBs on our team. I'd think they were bots, but even the most poorly-written bot program would be better than what they showed. Even pressing W 4 times and not shooting (ever) would've been more useful than these [edited] (Missouri in J1 , Colorado in the square next to it, other Missouri and Lion sitting behind an island, unable to shoot anything and letting the Cruisers tank). Enemy team had all caps and we needed to do something - so obviously the only BB (me) that tried / tries to win, gets detonated ... 37k damage by 1 shell hit New Campaing task : "deal 150k damage with T8+ Cruisers / CVs and survive and win the battle" End of the battle : If it lasted 20 seconds more I'd have gotten it. Also quite a hard-carry btw ... nearly twice the XP of the second player on the team.

Really ? Furutaka vs Pepsi? Only advantages she has are torpedoes and concealment (assuming equal captain) ... Pepsi beats Furu anytime, always

Please explain how a Conqueror can deal less damage to a Cleveland than a Cleveland to a Conqueror ..

I'm more of a cat-person tbh ..

Each his preference I suppose Imo they're both squishy .. if one gives broadside to the other, the other can (and probably will) punish that. But ofcourse in Randoms Aoba might be better as it's hardly ever 1v1

Still 6 guns vs 10 (or 4 vs 5 when bow-in). The Aoba has nice torpedoes, but 1v1 I'd definitely pick the Pepsi though..
