[SM0KE] Verblonde Players 9,787 posts 20,664 battles Report post #2 Posted June 30, 2020 I was having a thoughtful look through my port earlier and there wasn't a single thing where I thought "yay - that'll be a great pick on small maps with CVs about!". If there weren't CVs, I would probably be pretty stoked about a T6 Clans season, but as it, nah. Huanghe might be worth a go - creeping smoke and okayish AA in theory, or London (smoke and a heal), or *maybe* T-61, although I suspect that the latter would spend its entire time fleeing from CVs. Beats me why WG couldn't have just gone with an odd tier on this occasion, to buy themselves some time to work out a practical fix for CVs on small maps; not feeling hugely enthused at this point... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TOXIC] guy_incognito79 Players 320 posts 5,605 battles Report post #3 Posted June 30, 2020 I think Tier 5 or 7 would be better choices.. and I'm not even in a clan so I can't play these. Altho a tier 2 clan battle season could be oddly amusing too. Just for funzies of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No she is simply to weak, creeping smoke is nice but not enough to warrant taking her with only 6 guns, yes she can be entertaining but not a competitive ship... Perth might be better choice with 8 guns and London even better due to heavy shells BUT few CLs/CAs with heal and long range all-penning gunnery of Nurnberg/Makarov twins are most likely to cover cruisers unless we get another DD IFHE stomp meta... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[XTREM] Miragetank90 Players 2,626 posts 18,702 battles Report post #7 Posted June 30, 2020 Graf Spee will be in the mix as a BB alternative, kind of proto-Stalin... thing... albeit with bad accuracy. It can overmatch CAs too, depending. For teams forgoing CV for BB PEF would probably be one of the strongest picks thanks to good armour, good speed and the ''best'' AA at tier 6. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, my top picks will be Bayern and Nurnberg they did a great job in t6 sprint. Budyonny it's also top pick. And i have other options too, even Ranger.(just kidding, but i could if i wanted to) After all, we are talking about t6. And perhaps Graf Spee will be in time to take part of the action (just more two or three days to get it if all is going accord to the plan). Degrasse, London, Leander, Normandie and so on.

The reason I thought it might be worth a lash is that - as you mention - the AA is pretty fearsome, based on a quick look through things in my port. 4 hours ago, Butterdoll said: what's wrong with Farragut?

Times when Flambass and Flamu weren’t ccs. Played one game against Flambass and two with flamu that season. That season Huanghe was not around but Perth was.Cleveland behind rocks was the hammer and hatsuharu was popular due to the best detection. Also shino was in many games.

Assuming this is what's going on; "Sales Dept. pushing for more sales based on the info received from Regional Mngs that majority of the player base don't care about cvs being in cbs and hence, will continue playing regardless. However, some top clan players are unhappy about cvs and although excluding this minority which keeps complaining is not the optimal option, rules can't be set for them alone."

Graf Spee might have some value, but it's just not consistent and unlike Stalingrad, it isn't going to just shatter or bounce most incoming shells. PEF, imo, is not worth it. Speed it has, but Bayern gives better protection, with better guns and while you don't get as great a dps value, you actually get a fighter plane. Which at T6 is worth more than any AA. Overall, if I had to come up with a lineup, I'd say, 1 CV, 3-4 Perths or Leanders, 2-3 Trentos. Potentially more Trentos, less of the others. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
