[TTT] GraySlayer Players 645 posts 5,471 battles Report post #1 Posted January 5, 2020 I've got about 350k coal now with nothing to spend it on. Do you think they will release some decent DDs for coal anytime soon.. I do eye up Thunderer on occasion but apart from Massa and Lenin which I do ok in I'm not really a BB player. I'm certainly not spending it on a captain, well at least not 175k of it. So yes are there plans for further coal ships (DDs) in the future does anyone know of?

I did get tons of 12k coal drops LOL. I bought the Smol with coal already and this is what I have left over. So far in my few games in her I am totally clueless ROFL. I play it too much like a DD is my problem. I'm a DD main at heart and not a cruiser or BB player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I did think that but would be pissed if they then released Benham for Coal right after i've done that LOL. So I wondered if there was any hint on the vine.. If I could play Thunder as well as I play Lenin ill be happy but I did rubbish in Kremlin so am wary.. Give me your Fujin and ill give you my 350k coal :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I stopped spending at that point. I did get lots of coal and doubloons though and over 1500 camos plus other T5 and 6 crap ships I don't even want. Spent some of the doubloons on PR boosters as I had loads of them too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voirtez Players 37 posts 13,971 battles Report post #10 Posted January 5, 2020 Yeah your right, how it works is once to have all the low tier crap ships, when you get a ship container and you already own that ship it will re roll, so if like me this Xmas, it always re rolled to give me a tier 9 or rare, this Xmas I got belfast, Massa, fujin, Georgia, azuma, all cvs, hood, Wichita, tirpitz, and a few others and all I bought was 8 Mega, the rest came from Xmas containers, I got the Georgia from the mega crate from the pay to Rico campaign the others were snowflake containers, I have like 28 tier 10’s I think so I got a good return from them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voirtez Players 37 posts 13,971 battles Report post #12 Posted January 5, 2020 Yeah if rng goes against you, you are a long way from getting the ships you want in a re roll of the container... ive been lucky enough to get all those low tier ships over the last couple of years so this year I got all good stuff and my drop rate was unusually high, not complaining though 😂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kami is just a Fujin GC is filthy, but considerably less filthy than the Imperator Nikolai (which is mostly a Okt Rev one tier lower and no superstructure to burn), and lacks MaccyD camo scheme Gremy isn't the OP monster everyone (Zathos mainly) seems to think it is.

That little jingly tune you hear signalling a super container. I did end up with basically everything though... The funny thing is they don't understand a player like me at all. Had they given me a sniff of a decent ship I would have spent £1500 on all of them. Pissing me off was not the right thing to do in marketing terms. Don't get me wrong I did get loads of stuff and loads of coal. I also got tons of gold some of which I spent on PR boosters. So not a totally bad story. I'm not crying about it. It is the way it is. They could have implemented it in a better and fairer way though. I don't think they think things through to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
