wot_2016_gunner

I can't wait for them too; hopefully Yashima will be affordable (for the majority of the community i mean). Btw guys, here is the "original" Yashima

NO WAY. FINALLY. YEEEEEEESSSSS. I'm happy. I'm on WG side on this one; I mean, i felt that with the introduction of all of this 457mm guns BBs (Georgia, Ohio, Thunderer, Kremil), Yamato's 460mm guns had been, i don't mean powercreeped, but i mean that much difference between Yamato and her competition, with the only unique thing being the ability to overmatch 32mm. Just by looking at the stats i think it's balanced. (and btw, i think we needed a counter to Russian Bias... i mean Kremil) @Crysantos @MrConway thumbs up on this one. A good way to start 2020. Time to... take off, set sails i guess

@mitchell600

Well guys, check this loadout out and thank the Lord that it's not in the game because it would be copletely broken (tecnically you have some sort of it on Subs right now, but i hope that's going to change) (maybe it's what the Indomitable needs )

Nor really, I might have grinded Gorizia if it was easier, but i just got some rewards from the Dockyard still need to get the last one tomorrow. Tho I got the Mutsu from a Supercontainer a couple of days ago and I'm happy with that.

No it doesn't at all I mean, i get the thing, but Kamikaze it's not suicide it's something a lot more complex than that, plus, it's sad. Today, people tend to use the term "Kamikaze" in the worng way, and that makes me both sad and angry. This is what some of those 4.400 pilots (most of them were in their 20s or even less) that died crashing (or trying to) their planes onto ships; (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiinykmfOnI) - "Sister... thank you for everything. I'm sorry I couldn't say it in person before I left" ==> Kishida Nauro, June 11th 1945 at age 21 - "Mother, father... I never repaid you for raising me. I guess this will be the first and last time" ==> Imamura Iwayoshi, May 25th 1945 at age 19 - "I was told I have to go tonight. I promise to stay strong" ==> Yamanaka Shohachi, May 25th 1945 at age 22 - "Mother, I'm sorry to leave you with noone left. ...But this is war. You must live on" ==> Hatai Seito, December 27th 1944 at age 20 You can argue many things, but Kamikaze doesn't mean "suicide attack", it really doesn't (literally, it means "Divine Wind"). I'll always be against introducing them in the game. Plus,

Please don't

I'll try to use them in IL-2 1946 and i'll see what can you actually do with them.

Perfectly correct. That was a 1.500 kg bomb, non of the Aircraft that the GZ has could carry such a load; the max a Ta-152 could carry was around 500 kg (two SC 250) which is perfectly correct with what is in the game with the PD 500 bomb (which is a 500 kg bomb). The Fw-190 could really carry torpedoes, and in fact it was tested (see the picture), so it's fine. The only issue is the Werfer-Granate 21 of the rocket planes, because that was a Anti air weapon, not a ground attack (not to say anti-ship)weapon and in fact they were and they are, if you can see in the game, angled upwards; how the hell could somebody aim that at a ship, this is from wikipedia "The relatively low velocity of the rocket created a considerable problem in attempting to counter the resultant ballistic drop of such a slow-moving projectile, which required that the launcher tubes be mounted at a roughly 15° angle upwards from the line of flight, causing considerable drag on the airframe of the carrier aircraft. The low launch velocity and the high angle at which the rocket was launched meant that both accurate aiming and correct judgment of the target's distance were difficult. As a result, most of the rockets fired exploded either in front of or behind the bomber target. However, they did often achieve the effect of opening up the bomber formations enough for fighters to attack with conventional weapons"

Or a Carrier, here is Shokaku (the only image that i could find)

Back in the day, PhlyDaily ranting on CVs

They already can, maybe not at the same time, but they already can.

Hmmmm can't I say all of them.

@lafeel They might still buff the main line tho. The problem is; that there is nothing else to put in the tech tree.

@Menchalior @creamgravy @Allied_Winter Well, guys, there might be Oyodo when the Japanese light cruisers will be added, it basically had only two mogami turrets at the front One thing i would see them doing would be, when the Japanese light cruisers will be added, to put Takao in place of the Mogami in the heavy cruisers branch and moving the Mogami in the light crusier branch, while still keeping the option of the 203mm guns; honestly, i don't want her to lose her ability to switch between either 155mm or 203mm guns. That as always been one of her uniqueness and i don't want that to be lost. I think that many people tend to forget about the 203mm on Mogami. I mean, she was built with 155mm guns so that she was classified as a "light cruiser" by the Washington Naval Treaty (cruisers with a guns caliber up to 155mm) as they had already reached the limit for the number of heavy crusiers that they could build, but as soon as Japan went out from the Treaty, they immediately took out the 155mm and put 203mm guns. I'm still at Myoko, but i don't think that Ibuki should be changed, she's perfectly fine if you ask me. I also think it's a good think that her playstile is not that different from Myoko's. Btw, here is my proposed IJN light crusier tree: - Tier 4 IJN Kuma (we already have it and it would go down to the Heavy Cruisers branch) - Tier 4 IJN Nagara (the split would happen at tier 4) - Tier 5 IJN Sendai (Emerald exist, so... i think that it would be sort of fine, they might pull off some gimmick) - Tier 6 IJN Agano - Tier 7 IJN Oyodo (maybe with one more turret in the stern; only two in the front feel very lackluster, maybe WG could do some paper work, remember that Fubuki has two turrets instead of the three that she historically had (this is from the wiki: In order to properly balance her at her new tier, Fubuki in World of Warships is missing one of the aft turrets she had historically.) - Tier 8 IJN Mogami (which would be raplaced by the Takao in the Heavy Crusiers branch, but she would still keep the option of being able to use either 155mm or 203mm) - Tier 9 N/A (Paper ship) - Tier 10 N/A (Paper ship)

For the same reason as for Harlock, I would be extremely happy if they add this one. Ladies and gentlemen, i present to you the most badass female captain ever; EMERALDAS and btw, she has a red Jolly Roger as a flag, which is just Just watch this and you'll understand

I saw him too (even if i'm only 19) but not really my favourite. I want Harlock (which would be a good way to bring back the Jolly Roger flag) P.S. I took the movie picture because it looks better, tho the Arcadia looks like crap imo.

I tried her out in a couple of Co-Op games with my Nagato captain (12 points) and she's good, uptiered at tier 8 she kind of struggles a bit due to the lack of armour, but i mean, what tier 6 ship doesn't do that; even the Izmail suffers from being uptiered into tier 8 MM. The AA is inexistent but... IJN AA was never good so... I don't really care about AA. The torpedoes exist but don't exept you to use them often. This is my recommended build, which is just a standard BB build but i wanted to share it anyway (https://wowsft.com/ship?index=PJSB506&modules=11111&upgrades=114100&commander=PCW001&skills=2183218178&ar=100&consumables=111) And obligatory picture of one of Mutsu's guns at the Yamato Museum

After three losses in a row due to "not particularly good" teams, i was a bit sad about it, i was complaining about the "potato players" and stuff like that, I managed to get my first Daily Container of today and i went for "more resourses" as i always do. Turned out to be a Supercontainer and... I got the Mutsu. F*** Yeah. Say whatever you want about the ship, i don't give a ****, I'm so happy right now. I was wondering if I would have ever got any premuim ship this Holiday Season since last year i got the Dunkerque and the Anshan (from Santa Containers tho). I'm just so happy. I put the 10 points captain on the Ryujo as she was left without one since i got the Shokaku and I put her original captain on Shokaku, I'll just use the other IJN BB captains. Btw, Mutsu is named after the Mutsu Provence of Japan (all the IJN battleships from Kawachi onwards were given names of Japan's provinces, the battlecruisers like the Kongo class and the Amagi class were named after mounts, other ships were named after mounts as well, like Mikasa) P.S. Boy that stern mast is high.

@Johnny_Moneto Btw, here is Mutsu

Sometimes playing this game i feel like him, to which i was actually compared sometimes when i put my sunglasses on since i tended to look like him.

I just had this game in the Nagato, i couldn't save it, but just look, i'll post even the stats of the worst players, i left out the players that just had a bad day. You can even look at the stats for yourself. (replay: 20200106_195610_PJSB010-Nagato-1944_46_Estuary.wowsreplay)

Potato Team, couldn't save the game. (I looked at the profiles of the players and most of them were basically new with like 300 battles and around 35% win rate) other players in my team just had a bad day, which happenes to everybody. (replay is included) It's a loss, but 1.2k Base XP, 128k damage, 1.8 milion potentian damage, Dreadnought and Confederate in a Nagato !!!!. 20200106_195610_PJSB010-Nagato-1944_46_Estuary.wowsreplay

If you wan't to know how I play, check out these two videos; they are two replays that I sent to SeaLordMountbatten. One thing tho, I changed my Dunkerque build recently into a survivability build, but i still play it in the same way.
