Honest question though -- can't you just nerf the the HE ... a little bit? 

 

I guess the problem is that the ship is "balanced" at the moment, so if WG applied any kind of meaningful nerf to the HE, it would become too weak and would need to be buffed in other areas, hence my comment about taking it back to the drawing board.

 

The other problem is that WG have obviously decided that the line should be focused on countering BB instead of other lines, obviously an attempt to address the BB overpopulation.  If they change the ships balance away from HE then the risk is that they simply create another clone 4 x 3 T10 BB thus defeating the original purpose of the line.

So the Soviet rumours about Belfast, Kutuzov and Perth being withdrawn from sale turned out to be true. Do you think it makes sense to buy any of them last minute? Time is until tomorrow...

PS. A thought to consider. Since one Soviet gossip about withdrawing these 3 premiums turned out to be accurate, maybe the second gossip about global fire chance nerf incoming in next few patches is also spot on? That would actually explain why BBrits got released with such a ridiculous chance in the first place. Remember DEDD released with stealth fire removal in mind?

So, basically Musashi is a Yamato with far worse accuracy and additional 155mm AP secondaries.

T9 either means free exp or reward ship.

Because solution to BB overpopulation is to make everyone play BBs. :Smile_trollface:

Don't have the Kutuzov, but whenever I meet one in game it's a pain to the butt.

Belfast is a good ship. Ok captain trainer for the RN CLs, but with the HE it plays a bit different.

Perth has these funny little quirks that make the ship really unique. Of all three I would buy this one again in a heart beat.

A global fire chance nerf without a compensation would nerf all cruisers to such a degree that there would be no point in playing them anymore compared to BBs...

460mm. In T9.

...of course, I don't have any information about the balancing, neither about their intentions for distributing the Musashi. Still - somehow I have a bad feeling about this.

Called it on the musashi 

T9 with worse gun characteristics and the stock as built hull.

Part of me is thinking the worst AA for a T9 battleship looking at it. I do not see any mid range AA at all.

@musashi

 

it really looks underwhelming. yes yes all that 460 at T9 are too OP balbla...

 

but honestly why would i play this ship when i end up playing T10 in 5 of 6 games?

playing inaccurate ships is realy one of the worst things you can do to yourself in WOWS 

and "buying" a ship that will be imensely expensive (if its FXP it wil cost atlest 1.5x the cost of a missouri) just to have a super gimped yamato?

 

having to play 5 out of 6 games in a much worse yamato just to have  this 1 in 6 game where i can bring 460 guns against ships that dont usualy see them?

i really dont see it.

Mushashi is just first iteration to see how she fares if it gets spanked over and over again they will probably give it godlike secondary's that put the german BB's to shame and Conqueror heal.

Well honestly, I'm sure the answer is that's what people want to play. Not all of us, but most of us.

 

If you put out a vote for next FreeXP ship, I'm not sure the top-10 would include anything but BB's.

If you dont like them you have until 0.6.14 to refund them for full price in doubloons.

 

So technically you lose nothing as long as you dont mind having a fairly large stack of doubloons

If you a) have the money to spare and b) can make use of the dubloons you get after you deem the ships not worthwile, I'd say go for it. If you don't like 'em, refund 'em. And with digital goods I have much less of a problem to test it out and RMA it. On a personal note: I keep my Payfast and MK.

USS Alaska :Smile_hiding: Or does she count as BB?
