Then enemy had the brain frezee and everyone retreated, insted musashi who was trying to push into a cap. and there was a kitakaze next to him in a smoke.. Burned down in screams!

But when I take my BB's for a round (like the Musashi), I all too often end up in a similar situation. Pushing against the enemy, challenging them into an engagement only to notice that all my other team mates have suddenly dropped out of sight behind me.

[THESO] Excavatus [THESO] Moderator 4,705 posts 17,888 battles Report post #6934 Posted March 7, 2019 I was an IJN DD captain... a long time ago though.. Now I am a glorious BBaby.. But let me tell you one thing, the thing that IJN DD captains want most from BBs, is to be chased by them.. or any other torpedo boat captain for that matter. If you know where the enemy DD is, and If it is not close enough to detect with planes or hydro.. just turn back and go to opposite direction :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you know where the enemy DD is, and If it is not close enough to detect with planes or hydro.. just turn back and go to opposite direction :) Depends on the situation.....if that DD really needs to be deleted or it will kill off more allied ships/defend a cap to eternity and win by it going in bow pointing at (hidden) DD with all barrels loaded with HE can be worth it for the team. Some irratic saw lining when approaching can sometimes help too, unless very close. Perhaps not if you are a stat player, sacrificing yourself will ruiin your precious stats, although turning around and leave the Dd alive can make you lose as well......but going in when you mind team play, sure it is always an option. Some BB player did charge the smoke cloud but he was smart and had a plan, he called me to help him as a CV player, so we went in together. He died, but reveiled the DD and the DD died too.....and we won the match but with very narrow advance in points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When there is a CV around it is completely plausable I guess.. But lone BB.. chasing me in my shima.. never ever ends well for that BB.. If I am not on the brink of my health..

"Once you get past the lance point, it just like killing rabbits"" I do this with BB ( for me always enhanced ) secondary batteries too ofcourse, that is what they were for IRL.

There wasn't that much to see, to be fair: killed the Mogami and kept the German DD spotted with hydro for others to finish him off, but got massacred by the Moskva in return. You did a lot better in your flank. Salute. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You did a lot better in your flank. Salute. Yeah, your two DDs at C didn't expect radar Edinburgh and then couldn't turn out of radar range due to the island, so Z-52 just died and Kidd got wrecked. Didn't get a huge damage total in, but the knowledge that I contributed to the demise of two DDs and ruined it for a smoke Mino is all the satisfaction I need. Did get three torps and a kill on the Yamato though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Estaca_de_Bares Players 1,534 posts 25,837 battles Report post #6944 Posted March 9, 2019 @MortenTardo's Midway and his gang on the red team while playing Minotaur. A full duration battle that could go either way till the very end. Unfortunately for them he couldn't finish off our remaining Daring in time. I only sank a broadsiding Harugumo but became a sore eye blocking B cap from flipping behind a rock and radaring and hydroing everyone that came to it.

I've logged out since so can't see the xp screen, but you were up there in the top 3 or so weren't you? I was providing some close -in support to the guys moving down to the Southern cap, then they got gibbed and I had to fight a bit of a rearguard action. Still, plenty of plane kills!

Yup, that was the battle. You topped the list and I came in third. At mid point we were winning but like you said our team overreached quite badly. I never like to play cruisers preferring BB's or DD's instead. My performance in DD's is kind of limited as well being more of a torpedo guy than a gun boater. These days radar seriously effs up my results too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
