Having in the past month farmed both kremlin and being now 20 k xp away from yamato you can see here a fair comparison between Soyuz, Musashi and Izumo. Keep in mind that Musashi is played usually with all sorts of flags on while Soyuz and Izumo, only with the repair flag and consumable reuse flags. I would say that the Izumo would definitely benefit heavily from having all defensive flags on because otherwise it just might not be sufficiently tanky and the handling is absolute garbage, in order to survive and have a major contribution in the very disputed and close-call games that you might be encountering. I would say it's definetly NOT worth skipping with free xp BUT I have not really enjoyed this ship and it has been boring especially due to the guns. I'm not one to care too much and I don't bother to read the "technical numbers" behind every ship, my experience in practice with the ship is that the guns suck big time. Half the time they shoot like confetti with no chance of them dealing any damage that you intended, perfect salvos on cruisers and battleships at ranges between 8 and 20 km will half the time bring back some joke damage numbers and 15-20% of the time I would estimate, you get what you aimed for. I know the calibre is different between izumo and musashi but there is just NO comparison between these two ships. It feel like with the musashi I could easily take on two izumos at the same time and not care. As for soyuz, it's just superior in every way. The 3rd turret being in the front on Izumo somehow manages to bring no benefit in extra damage numbers overall, although it is perfectly usable at least 33% of an entire game safely, while the musashi just does better even if you remove it's back turret which is rarely used efficiently. Wall of text aside, if you want better odds with the Izumo try to avoid staying nose in, but rather stay with your backside at the enemy, the ship is not tanky or fast enough to get out of a bad situation. Doing that will greatly improve your survivability and ability to use all 3 turrets, but it's an advice I rarely use myself because the ship is so sluggish that it just takes a lot of effort to do that every time and the ship just bores me too much to try my best. The ship as I said, it's not BAD but it's not GOOD and it is BORING and unrewarding somehow. But not Free XP worthy.

Is there any official info on why/how these prizes have been given out? I play with a friend of mine, we both relativelly stop/start playing again the game at the same time and invest on average the same amount of $ while we're playing. The periods we stopped playing (like more then half of this year until december) are the same, and the date we started playing again relatively the same. Was just curious what's the reason of these things being awarded as her has recieved the things and I have not. (out of pure curiosity of how this works, not that I mind not getting anything)

I'd like to enter the raffle. Thank you. In-Game name: Peccatrixxx
