The fair option would be to offer doubloons for everything that costs doubloons, half the price all around and full refund for say one month after major changes in overall mechanics and ANY ship specific change (wather its generally considered buff or nerf) many people that are now reluctant to spend any cash at all would do it more freely if they new they can get their money back if an unwonted change happens, also this way many of the nerfs that were cut down by the comunity in the past and hence had to be dropped would likely be considered in a different light and mught have passed...

I got one looks nice and I was looking forward to an IJN CL premium even if its only T5, high enough for the weekly stuff and she can house my mogami captian when the said is in the warf ^^

1. Ships with good AA are nowdays often not the same ships that were in RTS era ans there were changes even during rework, you need to read up on tr specs and/or practice more... 2. Becouse he cits you while you dont do it, you need to practice more to see what altutude will get you best results with a given cv vs a given target... 3. Sounds as you dont read the situation properly of you get sunk alot, IMO there are few good positions on every map for a cv to park there so its protected from incoming long range fire and is reasonably close to action, if you insist on roaming around you better pay close attention to the map and its not always easy while flying around... 4. Becouse they practiced, and practiced and practiced some more...

Easy m8 u know Bouge clas CVs acctually carried Wildcats and Avengers, right?

No explanation needed really as the reason you asked for precisely that overmatch is the reason that is stupid, Smolensk is a glass cannon as it is being overmatched by every heavy cruiser in its MM spread would promote it to garbage, for practical feel of what it would be go try Krasny Krim (actually even worse as krispy has some frontal belt however narrow) even Tier 6 CLs have 16mm of extremities and that 100 belt you mention is just pure BS and you know that, its a tiny narrow strip of steel over the water surface you will hardly ever hit when you overmatch the bow and slam through the 100mm plate behind it right into the citadel... Desmo would demolish a smolensk in 3-4 salvos - ie 20-25s tops and in meanwhile smol would do like 5k he damage nearly fully healable, nice trade...

NO

Really? And in which stat would that be? I mean apart from being T9 so it can occasionally shi on the T7

Well its hard to be less resistant to air attacks then the french dd line as their aa seems to be a drunken korzikan with a rifle and a box of ammo sitting on the deck...

If you want my honest advice about improving in skills... Grind a whole (say german for the discussion purposes) tree, you can use the xp boosters and freexp you earn with those ships you are grinding to speed up the process just dont use "external" freexp (converting from premiums etc) then after you have done that play some 50-100 matchess with those T10 for better or worse, then reset the tree at the next RC circle (so you have time) and regrind it again, and then grind/regrind another tree or if you are only interested in one nation repeat that tree once more... After you have done this - NOW you have RPs for a nice T10 premium of your choosing and trust me after this you WILL know how to make them work... I was sceptic about the RC idea but I decided to give it a go and even after 15k battles i played I feel it improves my skills to play a tree from scratch...

Yep had my Khaba poped once by a water hit...

Potatos will be potatos Personally I dont use the MMM or give a rats about it, its users or their comments and smartas*es get the Chat abuse report (and I advise all others to do the same) without any comment whatsoever from me, I hand them out even if they target others (which is actually the case most of the time since I passed the 51% solo mark) so they can enjoy their chatban time if they persist with it...

True I melted a GK with my Small yesterday, he didnt stand a chance fire after fire...

So if you want to know where the enemy ships are while the match is going on you look at the stream on the sevond monitor...

Well they could consider them for ICBM launchers really as they didnt have more then 16 pices of 15" ready (those used on biz and tirp) let alone anything bigger then that british at least had few of those (albeit older) 457 actually made and mounted... IDK if you watched the Sink the Bizmark! couse there is an interesing bit at the wery start of the movie - the original nazi biz launch promo that among other thing claimed it had 500mm armor and 16" guns...

Emm wut? Ark just dumps on everything really, nearly every drop with those DBs is at least one fire going on anything you hit from t4 dd to t8 bb and at least 3k raw damage for starters? I mean ofc it wont pen the decks and turets of bbs but its not needed really...

@OP nope, got one 3xcoal bucket yesterday and one 2x-er as well, you just gat bad rolls m8

Yes as PvP its shite as PvE you can have all the imbalance you want, bots dont (supposedly) have feelings to get hurt... A hostoric op centered around Bismarck as presented in the movie would be quite easy to do conceptually... You make the map with fog of war (as in cyclone) and relevant landmasses, players spawn in relevant groups (it would be optimal to have the historic ships for it meaning the necessity of addition of PoW and couny class cas, but hell - better half then nothing) of 2-4 ships and with 4 routs of breaking out for Bis of which one is chosen randomly and your job as players is to find them and sink them before they can dart to the zone with air cover where you get under atrack of the plains (preventing this can be one of secondary objectives), there you can still get them but it gets dicy and if biz exits the area/enter the port its a loss, to make it more interesting they can put a fork say if you manage to shave off half ots hp in a given time span it goes on the one side twards the porr and of not on the other side twards open sea...

Well since for some reason they did not make a single historic op in 4 years of WOWS I wouldnt hold ny breath... Lets be honest here the ops are dead, campaigns seem to be dead as well (last real campaign added was the halsey campaign in summer 2018, I dont count that steel buisness that was on for christmas as it was temporary and had to be purchased) all we get nowdays is the mix of weekly directive type of events and "speshul" game mods that have little or nothing to do with the theme of historic ship battles...

You mean go to 10kt fission devices at T9 and 10

Well I didnt read up on the stuff but assuming the "Sink the Bismarck!" gave somewhat accurate description of the circumstances - they didnt, at least not all the way and PE peeled away after the battle leaving Biz alone, that was the level of arogance that deserved only one thing - exactly what happened... FFS US Navy didnt let Iowas sail around like that and lets be honest here they were technologically at least 10 years ahead of Biz in pretty much every aspect there is

I mentioned that in the light of the way of increasing the individual impact, ofc to be truly individual you would have to have last man standing mode and base xp based prize lineup and probably a controlled pool of ships as well

Becouse the Admiralty sent the Hood and PoW to hunt down Bismarck and not the other way around? BTW IMHO nazis were bad at planing naval warfare, probably becouse the experienced naval officers were scarce hence sending out a BB and a CA against the Home Fleet of the Royal Navy beliving their speed will be enough to evade persuit and raid the commerce, that was a "brilliant" plan (as many Hitlers plans were) at the same time he had Tirpitz in the works and Sharn and Gneis already available, if they really wanted to make use of the Bismarck they should have commited with a full squadron say Biz, Sharn, Gneis, Prinz and few more cruiser and at least 10 destroyers and then fan out when they break through the block and are away from the land based air cover of the brits, sending out 2 ships like that and then splitting even those 2 aftervards like that when the power of the naval aviation was already known and proven fact was really "speshul"

The ranked as a measure of individual performance would mean something in that regard if it would actually be dependent on the individual performance, the way it stands its just mini random with special prizes attached... Barr the change in the scoring principle ie changing the lineup for getting a star by the base xp regardless of win or lose for example best overall gets 2 stars and next 6 or 7 players get one star etc OR swiching to say 4x3 teams as it was in savage battles it will stay as it is, the ranked is just a measure of your persistence as how much you can take before going ape... Hence IDC really

@OP there is a number of players here that play CV more or less regurarly, most will help a m8 from forums if you ping them when in game, in general I would say find a t6 cv for div and take helena or atlanta with a full AA kit into the coop, you can use dallas if needbe (and several other CLs that have decent AA and are t6+ for dfaa as the matter of fact) but you can do it in any tier really...

And here I thought another m8 noticed the Conqueror description in the game still mentiones interesting stuff about 457mm guns...
