Aye sry, for too much zooming in and out - next time I'll have less of that. ;) And yea - no idea why 8 of our ships went sout in the beginning, maybe they were searching for a hidden base or something... ;) Edited December 4, 2015 by Trigger_Happy_Dad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have done me very good on the T5 and T6 so far. Picked it up from Flamu here on the forums/youtube. You shouldn't just automatically spam HE every moment with 130m. guns. If you're undetected and see cruiser coming closer so that you can get inside 8km of side load APs and wait for that range. Then start doing citadel hits. In best case you can keep doing that for some time from smoke. One teeny criticism. The zooming in and out following the shells made me feel see-sick. Low framerates do that. 60fps is lot smoother than old ancient tech era limited standards. Now if only Hollywood would get out of that stone-age 24fps so that faster movement wouldn't either be headache causing jerky or blurry as drunk's vomit.

KaraMon Players 4,154 posts 9,221 battles Report post #54 Posted December 5, 2015 Does anyone experiecne same thing as me? Kiev do minor damage to New Mexico and Colorado using He shells? Ap on the other hand is very effective but still what can be cause for those two ships to be so resistant to HE? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another Master Class on how to play Russian Destroyers. Tashkent is not so nimble as Kiev, but those guns have lovely flat firing arcs. You had some bad luck early on and lost a third of you health to enemy gun fire before you had even fired your own guns - but nevertheless carried on as if nothing had happened and played brilliantly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you very much ! Here's another nice battle: ...had a lot of luck there too ;) - recon planes, sonar, CAs + BB + DD against me, I noobed into the beach, critical hits on 5 modules, ship on fire, down to 1376 HP....and then BLAM! my torpedos hit the enemy Amagi 500m before he can ram our North Carolina! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another great job. Luck evens itself out. When you have a bit of good luck it makes up for all the times that you have bad luck. Had to laugh at that one, at 2:53, where the enemy Atago came round the headland and ate the torpedoes that you fired at the Amagi! P.S. I've subscribed to your channel so that I don't miss any videos in future. P.P.S. I notice that another forum regular "ShockPirat" was on your team in that battle.
