Yep. Now that I have a Thunderer I'm wondering why do I even bother with other battleships. See an angled CA? Blap it. See an angled soviet CA/BB? Blap it with HE. A DD? They must like all their modules broken. Oh but they torp in return? Dodge because unlike other TX battleship the Thunderer doesn't have oil tanker maneuverability. Make a mistake and take half your HP in damage? Disengage and heal up, it can do that anywhere regardless of terrain unlike other TX battleship. Planes zoom in, it's got defaa for good feel placebo. Need to push in? Not ideal, but you've probably shot up the enemy pretty good at that point and it's still a big gun battleship with decent firing angles and belt.

It's kinda frustrating if I play anything but DD. Can't shake off the lemmings in BB, can't shake off powercreep in non-soviet CA.

Buff several CA extremities armor to 32mm. Like imagie playing Zao in this day and age

Carrier counterplayed

Torps, is there anything they can't do?

So you can't have points for even the secsrange + reloadspeed and tank build? Ok.

Considering that every BB in your team is always stupid, it's very difficult to create crossfires of any sort, so HE spam is the most consistent way to deal damage.

They're buffing it's torps, aren't they?

That's pretty cool

Kinda late screenshot, but my very first RPF torping kill, another Shimakaze. All the battleships were so far away (as they always are) that I just emptied all my tubes roughly where the RPF was pointing and left.

You can't nerf FdR, she's named after a president who slightly helped Stalin beat Germany.

Asashio too. Everybody who plays Asashio in this mode seems to never have played video games.

I bought the 5k start because I don't have a T9 premium battleship. If I had, I wouldn't bother with the Hizen. It looks really boring and it's not like skill rework is going to make it into a brawler.

I was initially excited for it, but then I got a sharp reminder about premium lolcarriers and save the star idiots.

Have you been playing carrier?

Seems good, but are your thoughts in code for the next quarterly report?

So I got Thunderer. I thought I wouldn't even like it, but it's so frickin' fun! It's fast, nimble, accurate and stealthy. It's everything other TX battleships talk to their grandchildren about being in back in tier 8 days!

Oh, this is fun. I call Dead Eye 10% -> 7%!

Sure, even now you'll win more with cookie cutter build Bismark than secs Bismark, and wonder why aren't you playing like a Richelieu or a Vladivostok or a Ncal... Or even an Amagi. So, nerfing secondarybuild seems like a goofy decision, no? With new skill system going Dead Eye based build and... Wondering why you're not soviet, french, IJN or anything else than frickin' kriegsmarine.

So just snipemax build and be a worse version of any other battleship of your tier?

Definitely 3v3. That was hilarious! While 5v5 got me just depressed about lolcarriers.

You can already do this, not that it's any good at TX because the ship itself (Kurfurst) is so bad all round.

I feel like WG is going all "Well what other ship game are you going to play, huh, Rule the Waves 2? Please."

I'd get shikishima for the best gun sound

Bought thunderer. 6 games in, some salt Broke my TX damage record with 203k. Comparing now to GK... It's kinda nice to play a ship that isn't ultra-terrible at everything.
