[SM0KE] Verblonde Players 8,904 posts 18,097 battles Report post #2 Posted September 23, 2018 I'd get her for that level of ludicrous cheapness; don't expect greatness though - Perth is better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-TPF-] invicta2012 Players 5,674 posts 23,185 battles Report post #3 Posted September 23, 2018 Yes, she's a good fun ship. I would recommend paying the price for the pack with the 10 point captain, though - IFHE is a very useful skill to have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ICI] Linkaex [ICI] Players 817 posts 4,619 battles Report post #4 Posted September 23, 2018 I got her from a SC. It is a fun ship but does lack range on her guns. Good concealment and rudder shift. Idk how you call it but she has that smoke that gives puffs thats last 1 or 2 sec for a set amount of time. So you can crawl on 1/4 of your ships speed and stay concealed in the smoke. Haven't really played her that much tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-IAN-] IanH755 Players 2,043 posts 6,904 battles Report post #6 Posted September 23, 2018 Imagine a DD with a Citadel - Good smoke, great torps with a reload consumable but DD guns, Cruiser size and citadel and between Cruiser/DD detection. I've only used mine in Ops/Co-Op but it's a fun ship once you figure out it's more DD than Cruiser and adjust accordingly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[S-E] FixCVs_Nautical_Metaphor Players 3,529 posts 26,682 battles Report post #7 Posted September 23, 2018 Now they do throw in a 10-pt captain but still - look at it this way: Last week, during the Gold Ship Tech Tree discount, not much more money than that could have gotten you a Leningrad, or a Blyska, or a Perth. Albeit without a 10pt captain and also without a port slot. But still. These are all superior ships. They can also be used in the revised Operation Dynamo. Even if it was the Anshan, I'd say go for it. (That thing is actually really good, Gnevny firepower with real honest-to-god kill-everything-in-their-path torpedoes with 8 km range.) But not the Huang Meh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DREAD] josykay Players 697 posts Report post #11 Posted September 23, 2018 Perth is better. But this ship got great smoke, great mobility, great concealment.Which is enough to wreck havoc in it. In addition, it can work as a third pan asian crew trainer. Espacially because of her destroyer like characteristics. Perth is part of a Premium only nation with one mid tier and one low tier ship. So less viable in that regard. I would say, do you like Perth? Do you drive pan asian destroyers? Then yes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[PEZ] Yedwy Players 10,172 posts Report post #12 Posted September 23, 2018 Well i for one have anshan (needs dedicated captain to really shine) and loyang (can share captain upwards nicely) as well as yueyang and gadjah with respective captain, soooo no need really to train more PA captains for now? Anyways hh is a 6" cruiser for it to work properly standard CL build is a must and aldough you can get by on t6 without ifhe with 6"-rs still it can backfire badly if you are uptiered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely a good buy for the offer price at least. Fun little ship, love the rolling smoke and that mid-long range AA just wrecks low tier carriers. Gets worthwhile benefits from BFT, DE, SI, IFHE and CE, even AFT and torpedo builds would work at least as well as on the DD itself so it's a much better crew trainer for the Pan-Asian line than the Anshan. First two games after buying Huanghe today, this is with my GM captain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
