The problem with the secondaries on the Gin Court are two fold though, they're short ranged (5,5 base) and on a slow ship. So epic they may be, but getting to where you can use them might be a problem.

Even so, I'd be more willing to try out a meme-build for secondaries at tier V, than burden my team with such a venture at tier X. Not that my tier V team mates are more deserving of pancake for breakfast than they would be at tier X, but I feel more able to hold my own at the middle tiers. Where, if at all, does one go to procure the Agincourt at present?

In fact, in those 10% games where there aren't 2 CV, I just press W, and the aversity of anyone else on both teams to advance in the centre as well as my low detection range enable me to ambush (sic!) oblivious passersby. Else, I can just defend the spawn, another thing that nobody else does, because my teammates jump on lemmingtrains to the flanks - so those pesky DD trying to take the apparently empty spawn rush to their demise. Agincourt is not that common, and especially the average noob grossly underestimates how fast a close range broadside and hail of small guns can wipe out a DD or CL.

Not sure you can, unless they have re added the Battle of Jutland containers, sadly. Also, obviously, agreed on the comment about secondaries on t5 as opposed to tier 10.

Santa crates? ^^

 

No idea; I was just lucky to get the ship AND the camo from the two free containers you could get for tokens on that side account. The other nine accounts yielded crap, but this one has always been lucky - 3 supercontainers from try your luck per week are kind of normal there. :Smile_teethhappy:

Thanks for the swift reply! :Smile_great:

No sweat; I'm sure the Gin Court will eventuelly appear in the shop or at least as a special offer, and I'm in no particular hurry.

Oh I have not the slightest doubt of that either.:Smile_veryhappy: Have a one myself but unlikely to play her much outside of snowflake events, even in co op.

Because I have both ships and in real combat one gets 40k-50k secondary damage alone and the other barely gets 50k period.

<yawn> Come back when you have tried doing the exact same plays in a Hindenburg.

Actually Hindi Brawling was a staple of mine in Clan Battles. Getting the drop on dug in enemies with all those torp tubes ready to go was a surprisingly effective breaker of standoffs in the lower leagues. Will always have a soft spot for that ship.

same here mainly because I was watching Flamu today ... he pitted Napoli vs a Kleber bot with secondaries and then a Pensacola vs the same ... Pensa killed the Kleber faster ...

Flamu is Flamu… he can be faster than automatic secondaries 😆

Flamu purposely put the Kleber bow on knowing the SAP will do nothing. The hint of broadside and the Kleber would have melted.

Exactly, I’m not a Flamu boy….  These 2 ships cannot be compared in a real battile. How can a Pensa browl in sec. range with such an armour scheme?
