She served an aircraft carrier, but it was actually built to be an experimental cruiser with light armor, high speed and two turrets (one fore one aft) with single 18" guns in them. Combined with her torpedoes, this could be a fun little ship. Sod Furious... How about HMS Glorious 2x2 15inch guns (better than 2 18 i recon) and she was completed and even sore action .. Both her and her sister (HMS Courageous) took part in the Second Battle of Heligoland Bight 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't get OP's complaint about not having her. I was on a very tight budget when it was availible in its last few weeks and I missed it ....obviously wanted to complete my collection and had no idea if I could still get it? When it was removed I assumed that means removed and no longer available.

Disn't have the apeal I was looking for. 1. Support ship? Welcome to RN Cruisers buddy. 2. Perth and Belfast are the only ones who can sit in their smoke and spot for themselves at the same time. Perth uses Planes, Belfast uses radar. 3. Perth is the only one that can keep moving together with its smoke. So actually it is the last passive one of them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PEZ] Yedwy Players 11,301 posts 39,484 battles Report post #60 Posted December 3, 2018 Perth? Hope you are kidding, IMHO its a great T6 cruiser suitable for all modes of gameplay from coop to competitive it suffers a bit when bottom tier but that is true for all t6 cruisers... If you have one kit it for cap contesting and close dd support and you will fly through the upcoming t6 sprint ranked 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just wish that WG would stop releasing high concept British cruisers which only function in a certain way. If they do British Heavy Cruisers I would like them to be like Pensacola, Yorck and Algerie... Uncomplicated. You sail them about, shoot things with the right ammo, dodge, and sometimes explode if you show too much broadside. Is fun. They could get a lot of mileage of the RN cruisers if they got around to them... RN, Aussie and Spanish ones based on the Counties, RN and Canadian Crown Colony and Swiftsure cruisers, RN and NZ Dido class... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm liking the 3 turrets on the front formation. for Tier 8 I was actually thinking 3x3 203mm, 10klm torps , Id like to see it branch away from the normal 152mm tbh. But perhaps that's going heavy cruiser.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But perhaps that's going heavy cruiser.... Me too - she's kind of like an Atlanta, but with bad teeth...! In Blitz, Sirius is actually rather fun, albeit fragile. Think, lesser dakka than Atlanta, but with usable (single-fire) torps. As others have alluded to, we should probably have several RN premium cruisers; it's not like there is a shortage of inspiration. Maybe make one that's a classic main-line trainer, and then wander off into weirder territory for the others... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
