There's plenty of HE spam about from other nations - Helena, Cleveland, Bayard, Colbert, Marceau, Atlanta, Flint - and the community threw a hissy fit when they released the Italian line without any fire capability, so I'm not surprised they've gone back to small HE cruisers. Provided they avoid the Belfast/Smolensk mistakes I'll be interested to see how it plays. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ochakov is a crater on Mars and a city in Ukraine. There also is a scuttled Kara class guided missile cruiser with that name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HOO] Fat_Maniac [HOO] Players 2,337 posts 4,238 battles Report post #18 Posted February 8, 2020 New T8 RU cruiser with potential for HE spam? I smell a T8 Clan Battles and / or ranked season to tie in with it's release, If it has good AA too, expect CV's to be allowed in the season. After all WG have to give us fun and engaging game play right? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guessing 5s reload/12 rounds per min, to keep shell output in line with Chapayev/Kutuzov. Probably more, you can't have russian premium ship merely comparable to existing ships 16 hours ago, WolfGewehr said: MLK-8x152 T9 Freemium MLK 9x152 when gotta milk the same hull to the fullest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last night dug more into those designs, and the 152's planned for those ships called for 12-17 rpm on paper. So there is all the justification devs need to make her vomit 152 mm shells like no tomorrow 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
