None actually, as i would wish there were OPERATONS to use them in. Low tier ranked is much more "arcade" then higher tiers not that enjoyable if you are looking for a game that in some ways mimmicks ""realism"  Stat exploiters going there to club new players only makes that worse.

 

But if there were to be OPERATIONS i would like Ishizuchi best too indeed. Lots of guns and most on its stern so you can have fun making enemies chase you, speedy but a real battlecruiser ( not a battleship ) so thin armour. That ship is present in current OPERATIONS too as a rather easy to citadel bot enemy. Maybe Mikasa too if they reenacted that battle in THEME BATTLE OPERATION.

 

I think it is a terrible shame beautiful models at T1-T3 are wasted by playing them 10 minutes and never again after.....OPERATIONS may give them use, but WG seems not to be interested. Then again there comes a point players get tired of randoms ( and Coop play and reward  is very bad ) and leave.....i left War Thunder too because they kept adding vehicles (planes in my case) but never presented more non human interesting ground targets and rarely more maps. At some point when attacking the 100.001st tank or armoured car something snaps....and you get disinterested no matter how much new models that game pushed in the game.

Imperator stays strong, Orion, even nerfed is still one of the better tier IV's. Ishizuchi after all these buffs finaly has its place. For dd's Clubsom still shines although has some competion from the pan-Asian TIV.

 

Cruisers is a bit more iffy, Still like the Kuma though.

Clemson if that is still a thing, have not touched it in ages. Nowadays though with constant CV clubbers the only ship I find fun is the Yubari when I rarely play lower tiers.

Ishizuchi, Arkansas, Yubari, Bogatyr and Katori were ships I used to enjoy.

 

Haven't really played those tiers since The Great Success :Smile_bajan2:

Bogatyr and Ishizuchi here

 Me too! Unfortunately Hosho sealclubbers killed the fun in lower tiers, I haven’t played tier 3-4 for months...

The CV rework theme (replace Aperture Science with WarGaming, and Black Mesa with War Thunder, and enjoy):

I haven't really played low tiers (defined as anything without +2 MM, so T4 and below) much for a while now, mainly due to missions not being doable at those tiers.

 

Vampire is almost certainly my favourite at that sort of level though - kind of vaguely like a low tier Haida/Cossack; great fun!

My Hosho with a 19 pt captain. :Smile_hiding:

 

I used to enjoy Tier III and IV German, WW1 era BB's a lot. Very robust, strong secondaries for those tiers. I'm these days too scared to play them.

 

Ahh the good old days.  Here are my stats in the König Albert, likely never to be played again. :Smile_sad:

I really don't know what to say since i haven's played them in a while, due to the fact that i don't have anything to do with them (i.e. Missions, Operation, exc.). Tho if i have to answer right now; I'd say the Hermelin; the first ship i ever played, and i had a lot of fun in it; probably the best tier 1. Still tho, haven't played her since i got the tier 2

König Albert, Oleg, Varyag, Emden, Albany, Stock-St Louis.

 

However clearly, aside of KA it is all because of looks not performance.

I don't play tiers 3 and 4 anymore due to the amount of carriers there. I may in coop or something, but why would I want to do that?

Tier 5 used to have access to the now tier 6-only operations. This was changed iirc due to too many slackers causing too many scenario battles to fail, so tier 5 got excluded.

Tachibana Lima is fun. Also Kuma and Phoenix. And I love Bogatyr, Varyag and St.Luis. Russian dds are of course also a laugh!

St. Louis, Duguay-Trouin, Kuma and Izyaslav.

 

While T5 probably doesn't count as 'low tier' I also want to mention the Murmansk because it's the first ship I truly fell in love with. Pre-AFT/BFT nerf Murmansk was quite an experience.
