One ship i think would be cool would HMS Delhi - it was a t4 Danae class cruiser, but was rebuilt in ww2 with 5 5/38 american guns like the fletcher has - i think it would be cool to see in t5 or t6 as a destroyer killer but blows up if anything else looks at it. It would also have decent A due to the primary reason for her rebuild to assess the effectiveness of the 5/38 in the rn.

No torps, though, and she's a D Class, which means tinfoil armour. WG also has little interest in a Tier IV premium. Give her a Sims-esque reload,  smoke screen and a strong repair party, though, and she might be a decent little ship at Tier V in a Dido-esque sort of way.

We know t4 is problematic, while it has some of the best ships in the game for that era that make it very interesting to play, the missions only start a tier higher which means most people might consider playing tiers below 5 waste of time.

Still, this could be a relatively interesting T5 premium... given 5 guns of the T8 Hsienyang (also historically correct) and DefAA, with british smokes and hydro.

Also, being a premium, would have both AP and HE.

 

Really not a pleasure to meet it in a DD, at that tier. :Smile_ohmy:

It could be like that what you suggest, as a battlepass reward. Why not.

She could have a smog generator, anyone who get into the cloud will start to lose HP.
