Yees... The system in which you are in jail for some offence and the guard comes to your cell and says you god 2 years added to your sentence today! You ask - "Why?" And he replies - "You know what you did!"

Yep, best in a cruiser since they have least impact

Or maybe the system sucks?

No it doesnt, if this game was a 1on1 maybe there would be something in those numbers but since its not there isnt, I ground out every line in the game and a) winning simply pays better xp wise and b) there are always enough potatos on the enemy team you can farm damage from, only thing that can screw you is the ROFLSTOMP (whichever way it might go as it has the same effect) over which you have little or no control as you simply dont have time to farm damage and get base XP

Meh getting a Witherer might be difficult and the JoAT is so so for a skill IMHO, I slapped mine on the Audatios

Well its how it works now, you watch and get the mission that lasts a week, guess same will be here

Huh strange... Well maybe @MrConway can shed some light on that

Yees and we all know which ship is the leading candidate...

Well HOF ends 10th and its thursday meaning monday will likely be the last day for directives (they end the stated date in the morning) and patch should be 12th esp since they said in the stream yestersay they will hand out the eu crate bonus codes starting 12th

I belive they said in stream 12th, IRRC they said there will be codes

I am not sure if its 25 or 27 mm TBH (I am not home to check) but Montys 406 and bigger sure can punch through

Steel No, for instance CB are fun The less ships there are in lineup the greater the impact of individual ship, hence your impact is greater but unfortunatley also the impact of the stump that spawned next to you, more impact equalls more snowballing effect

You cant overmatch the deck and skirts but bow and stern are overnatchable by 406+ and it has a step in citadel making for a juicy target

CV AP rockets are coming, make no mistake about that... Only question here is will they be: 1) nation flavour (german?) 2) exchangable option (shudders) on existing 3) replacing the HE rockets entirely (goodby cruisers) One way or another CV popularity is seemingly still sub-paar and DDs still primary meat so this might be WG attempt of killing 2 flies with one stroke, ofc this will basically eliminate cruisers bur who gives a f* about those HE spamming anyway right? @__Helmut_Kohl__ oh btw yesterday in stream it was explicitly stated they dont intend to tie in any kind of AA changes to the AP rockets implementation

So whats wrong? You sacrificed your damage to stay hidden and secure a win by spotting - whats wrong with that? There are DDs that excel at this role, if you manage to squeese in some torps or farm some damage in the process even better but its not essential... I played a Shima game in rank yesterday, did only 19k damage and came second last (only yoloing gearing was behind me) but I took 5 of the 6 heals (and some other buffs) we had, finished off 2 of the enemy dds in the process and denied them large portion of the map by my torps and fact I am there, even the rest of the team ageed in chat that me and the z52 did a great job at the end of the match, I know I helped to secure the win despite the scoring system and thats all I need to know...

Well not having a Thunderer I can only draw conclusions from other RN BBs I played (this includes 457 conq) and the conclusion is - they play them wrong, they are quite good and flexible mid range BBs, unfortunatley most of their owners either go for long range fire spam (which wont carry the match and Conq is even better for that job) that only serves to save star, or they end up brawling an Ohio/Kremlin/GKF point blank which is not likely to end well for them

Seems I will drift more twards BB main in the next year and leave my cruisers in port for the most of the time (except CB OFC) as they just get sh on more and more, alternate class to take seems to be CVs...

Well any of the standard stats when looked at individually is sort of a relative and incomplete measure but taken together they can tell a story... For instance: 1) High WR but low PR - usually mean you get carried a lot although some DDs yield low damage (hence PR) although they contribute to the win tremeandously so the the ship in question and players main class are relevant as well 2) Low WR but high PR - usually means you do a lot of usless damage (ie fire on bbs) in essence you apply your damage in the wrong place and time so you cant really carry 3) High WR and high PR - usually indicates a very good player that can secure a win and farms his damage in the process 4) Low WR and low PR - means you are out if your league, you should probbably go to lower tiers and/or learn more about the game

Sadly - Conqueror

Yes now the CVs will hunt cruisers and leave BBs alone entirely...

Yeees its clear we have far 2 many cruisers in game so another hard counter to them is needed... Brilliant Hey WG how about you give ALL CAs Pan Asian or RN DD smokes?

Well the french T8+ BBs offer somewhat "cruisery" exprrience without beeing totally shat on by the BB guns, also Goliath with her 40 mm deck can bounce some of those shells as well Moskva and Stalin too

Wait for the IFHE and armor rework, also lots of heavy ovetmatching BBs were added of late that punch through the cruiser decks and make life misery (Kremlin, Georgia, Ohio) even on high tiers, well its world of batleships always was and always will be

I can already see the 2 moskva 3 burgogne and 2 kremlin setup...

Uh oh, I wouldnt advise that, you know 1on1 you might even win (although I killed CVs in randoms with her) but 3 klebers will rip you a new one, dont forget that thing goes almost twice as fast as your CV hull and can kill you with one side of torps and some light gunnery
