These ships should be added to server for testing during 0.9.9. In 0.9.8, Belfast 43 and Oklahoma should probably be added on live server for testing and just like updated versions of the ships that are current in that process, like US BBs. In this case patch doesn't refer when this ships would be released.

Because Edin in the game represent class, not a ship. So Edin hull is actually a Belfast hull from 1943.

It is 11.7km. I'm not sure if camo is already included but it usually is for premium ships. If camo is included that would mean 9.47km full concealment, if not then it is 9.19km. So no stealth radar in both cases but it is close.

Don't always trust to Wikipedia, it also list 3x4 2 pounder "pom pom" guns. HMS Nigeria was sold to India in 1954 but before it was commissioned in the Indian Navy in 1957 it was modernized The modifications that the ship had undergone during her extended refit included the replacement of tripod masts with stepped lattice masts, removal of one triple-barrel 6-inch gun turret as mentioned earlier, and six 21-inch torpedo tubes and replacement of all electrical equipment. So all torps and 2 pounder mounts were removed before it was commissioned into the Indian Navy so what we are getting is historically accurate.

But no torps ... one turret less and no torps. With initial stats she will be really strong T6 so it might get some nerfs. But I really love look with lattice masts and that uniform dark blue camo. Probably T5 or gimmicky T6. Achilles actually lost a turret before it was sold to India, so Delhi will have only 6 guns.

Strasbourg plating is 26mm which means it is standard BB, not like Champaign or Florida. But it would probably have 26mm all around just like Dunk. So still mediocre. Yes but it is questionable how much this will matter for a game. For example Dunk belt armour was 225mm while Strasbourg had 238mm so game-wise this would not mean much. Similar thing for front citadel, 210mm for Dunk and 228mm for Strasbourg, so again will not mean much for a game. there are differences but not significant ones, at least not for game.

They should, only difference is that Perth have HE, which means IFHE is useful, while Mysore will only have AP. But beside that Perth captain would be good for Mysore.

Plymouth will have both smoke and 9km radar (just why WG?), standard heal and hydro, all on separate slots, 7.5sec reload, only AP, 14.something range. Its AA would not be great (like that means much) Mysore and Strasbourg look interesting, Mysore will be in Commonwealth tree. It is literally an Edinburgh with 4x4 instead of 4x3 152mm guns

Interestingly, gm3d is showing 10km radar and 60sec smoke. WG probably made some mistake by setting wrong values on ST for those consumables.

Slava is for RP, coupon don't work for those ships

They are not for same resource or the same class of the ship, so not sure why you only can get one of them. Both are good ship, but if I have to compare them, I would say that SG is better overall.

They are same caliber but there is significant difference between their guns. Alaska is better overall but maybe won't suit your game style. I would suggest you to read LWM reviews of the ships and maybe watch some videos on YT about their gameplay before you make decision. Friesland is 1mil, Smaland and Hayate are 2 mil tho.

Yes, with reset you get a bonus which determine how much RP points you will collect, you collect these RP by playing ship with attached bonus. If you reset line 6 times, for for simplicity I would assume that all resets are with x1 bonus, you will have x6 bonus on ships of the line. This means that bonus stack with every reset. If you want to collect that bonus you need to play one game in the ship with attached bonus. You can't collect all RP just by playing T10. If you want to collect RP from T6 ship, you need to play that T6 ship, same for every tier. If you reset line and only play T10, you will only get RP from that T10 ship, fro all other from T6 to T9 you need to play them to collect RPs from them.

Ostergotland: base torpedo reload 100s with only TAE it is 90s with only TTM2 it is 85s with both TAE and TTM2 it is 76.5s In battle, reload time is shown in minutes. So with TAE only, it will show 1:30 in the battle.

It was fun because it was here for limited time. If you add it as permanent mode it would either became really popular which on the other hand could heavily impact MM for Random battles become boring and people will just start to looks somewhere else. And probably make next 3 vs 3 Ranked sprint boring and repetitive. Not to mention that lot of people played this mode for rewards, especially final 10k Coal. If you keep mod as permanent this will be gone so basically it would just become 3 vs 3 random game. So no, keep it just for ranked sprints but maybe make this kind of short fast paced tournaments appear somewhat more often.

Well there are two configuration you can add Cavalier. Original one with 4.5 inch guns and 2x4 torps. This could could be T7 or max T8 ship. Anything over that would require making her armament extraordinary or giving her a heal First modification, before she received SeaCat launcher. In this configuration she would only have 3 guns and 1x4 torps but would much closely resemble the current Museum ships and she would have that new bridge. But this configuration is quite under armed and would require something special to fit T7, for example, things like really good torps, heal or 6th upgrade slot (or some fantastic concealment in the first place) But in both cases her AA would be bad as she didn't have much AA guns in either forms, at least not enough to matter in this game.

From game I played on Friday And he was pink even before this game as he actually killed himself by hitting Halland.

I like idea of the Warship Master Invitational with 100pt for 7 T10 ships and every ship has a price. IMO it would be nice to try that system in CBs. But there are two big issues there, first it excluded CVs which I doubt WG would ever do and the second one is that, while people who organise this tournament have freedom to put values on the ship as they though it is fitting, WG would never admit that some of the ships, of some particular class, are better and would probably value them all the same which would ruin all purpose of this system.

I think that achievements from Scenarios also count as that battle mode is included in mission requirement. But IMO it is way easier to earn them in Randoms than in Scenarios.

Is it some great deal? No it is not. Is anyone forcing you to spend your money on it? It is the very similar as Dreadnought price in the shop which is like 11 euros. Only T3 cruisers are somewhat cheaper. So K.Albert price is comparable with those of T3 premium BB, Vampire would probably be cheaper in the shop. But the only other way to get those ships is in Christmas boxes so IMO this is not bad offer for those two ships. Sure it could be better but it could be much worse. Everything else in this offer is bad.

No, you don't. First you can collect 15 tokens from missions. Then you can buy two bundles from premium shop, one with 50 tokens and one with 10 tokens. That would cast you around 10-11 euros, so less than 10 pounds I guess. This will give you 75 tokens you need to buy Vampire.

Riga AP is great, it is not extreme version you get on Petro but it is basically same pen as Moskva but at T9. Riga can citadel BBs but not on all ranges, above 10km you will struggle to do that. On 10km, Riga AP can penetrate 382mm. For example Soyuz central belt armour is 375mm + 20mm citadel torpedo bulkhead behind or Lion 381mm belt armour. T10 BBs have even more like 406mm belt armour of Thunderer or 410mm of Yamato. So to citadel them you need to be bellow 10km from them. But you should not have any issue of citadeling cruiser at most ranges, if you can hit them in the first place. But Riga AP is still way better then Tallinn AP.

Well you can buy two good T3 premiums that are no longer available in the shop. Together with 15 tokens you can collect, you will need to spend basically as much as per standard T3 premium so no discount at all. But as both Albert and Vampire are only available via Christmas boxes it is still nice offer. Everything else is just waste of money. I doubt we will ever see anything as those old 30% discount for T8 and 50% discount on anything bellow any more. So this is the best we can get now I guess.

WG would never significantly change DoY or push it tier up. There are other three KGV battleships that could be used for new premium. With similar concept as Champaign or Slava or Florida, they could create T8 or T9 premium. If they want for it to have a decent AA they could go with Howe, if they want to have it bad AA as balancing factor WG could use PoW instead.
