[FO] Todger_Fairmile Players 494 posts 17,582 battles Report post #7 Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the heads up. Too bad it's not just the ship and port slot, I'd buy for a reasonable price. Don't want the signals. Don't want the doubloons right now or those modules. So won't be buying.

It s nice that they are offering a training ship for the U S, who had only the crappy Atlanta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kurbain Players 1,976 posts 2,773 battles Report post #12 Posted March 17, 2016 Keep in mind that the Marblehead is very similiar to the A-Hull Omaha and only has 12,7 KM range now that AFT doesn't work anymore for any guns with a caliber above 139mm. It's rudder shift time is pretty bad and its AA is non-existent. On the other hand the Marblehead is incredibly good at laying fires. Much better than its stats would suggest, which are supposed to be identical to the Omaha. The Marblehead can cause 20+ fires a game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's rudder shift time is pretty bad and its AA is non-existent.

Personally, I am quite surprised about the cash you can earn with the Michael Kutuzov. Still, I am considering the Marblehead since I'm a ship-messy of sorts....
