[BOATY] Zegrze [BOATY] Players 34 posts 10,091 battles Report post #1 Posted January 18, 2019 Well I finally got around to saving up 750k exp instead of spending it and I am pondering which T9 premium ship to get. My available choices: Kronstadt Musashi Missouri I already have Kutuzov and Alabama at T8. Is Missouri still the best credit printer, are the other two more fun? Would appreciate recommendations. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[LAFIE] lafeel Beta Tester 7,338 posts 7,856 battles Report post #6 Posted January 19, 2019 I'd say Kronstadt. Simply put she is the most unique of the three, and to be perfectly honest I consider the upcoming Alaska overpriced at 1M free xp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[ABR] Lord_Molly Players 7 posts 13,736 battles Report post #9 Posted January 26, 2019 I got the Krondi 2 weeks ago and its a monster. Being able to citadel BB's is a huge shocker for me. The Musashi is great but turns like a truck and you cant move the turrets at all. Its faster to turn the ship to aim. It depends on your play style. If you are aggressive go russian battle cruiser all the way. If you prefer to spend the first 2 mins reversing to the back of the map then an IJN BB is for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if one wants premium ship for Credit making, than Musashi is mutch better. With those guns it is hard do not make mutch more damage and threfor more credits than in Kronsthat.

kingzy2013 Players 228 posts 4,671 battles Report post #11 Posted January 26, 2019 Kronsthat is frustrating and unreliable. The guns overpen anything unless you hit the citidel or an angled ship. you will even overpen a full broadside monty at <10km my issue with it is that for the guns to be remotely reliable you need to be closer than 15km. by being closer than 15km you overpen aboslutely everything. mushi, its a t9 yama. you'll seal club T7 games (overpen all cruisers tho) and easily competes in t10 games with out feeling at a disadvantage. its borderline OP for a t9. could you imagine if mushi was a tech tree t9? it would have been nerfed instantly. imo - kron is quite unique if you dont have stalin. but its not the most fun ship to play unless you enjoy rolling the dice on your success with the shots. you have bad accuracy to deal with and when you do hit a target with a good salvo you can get you're balls you'll overpen 90% of the shots.

jss78 Players 1,292 posts 11,977 battles Report post #12 Posted January 26, 2019 This really depends on what you're after. Musashi is much more straightforward to use. Super old school BB. Musashi is arguably pointless if you're planning to grind the Yamato, and the especially if you're willing to buy the 5000-dubloon permacamo for her. Kronshtadt is a unique ship and is likely to remain so. I think she has a higher skill floor. Having radar suggests you need to get close, yet while having BB level size and (lack of) mobility, your protection while good is not BB level. The guns are very good but don't offer "easy options", as they don't pen like proper BB guns and you can't do the HE spam thing either. The core gameplay of Kronshtadt is still one of a radar cruiser, which is one of the trickier things in the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
