Any good?

pretty much WYSIWYG - it's a stock Colorado at T6, without many if any surprises. Should be easy enough to judge :)

The camo from the most expensive package is beautiful but the ship appears to be decidedly mediocre. This whale is sitting this one out.

Don't feel like paying money to purposely gimp my game. So many fast BBs these days, I find it hard to see how a 21knot BB is viable.

 

What good are 406mm guns if you can't run away or chase anything down?

Exactly. Also, from what I have seen her gun performance is woefully inconsistent.

Besides (very obviously) BBs giving you cooties, I'm also wary because she allegedly has rather woeful AA (on top of the reasons others have given) - from what I hear about the current state of the CV rebalance, things with weak AA are going to suffer...

Obviously, it's a bit early to be judging, but if one has no shortage of premiums, one can afford to be cautious.

Also don't the Standard USN BBs have awful armour patterns where only their vital areas had heavy armour?

 

Might have been sensible IRL but with the current IFHE spammers in game you get shredded fast...

Any special perks on the Dusty Rodes commander or only the name and picture?

Would have been interested with the special captain and camo... but that on it's own is not worth an extra £22, as I don't need all the other **** it comes with...

 

So no buy, gonna go for Massachusetts B if I don't get it in a free container.

Its painfully slow AA is borderline bad .

Low number of guns make it a bit frustrating it does not have better sigma.

 

Guns stil hit hard though and it can fight back even against tier 8 unless it gets chased down.

I like her, feels like a Colorado.

 

Only downsides are the slow speed, the crappy AA and the constant TVIII MM, which while she can manage it, it's bloody annoying.

But yeah, I'll probably just try for her on my new year's gambling binge.
