Because I always was conflicted on whether to dismount the Trafalgar or Iron Duke flag from my RN ships to mount the AL flag like I do with any ship that has an AL captain.

What? You can look it your self, survivability wise your Z52 is good. Pointing out that how your Z52 got blaped at 16.km as and indicator do something is irrelavent. Every ship does occasionally get blaped like that.In fact cruisers have higher chance of being in reciving end than DD. Obviosly DD players like the reduction on damage recived. Because in BB heavy meta it is a big deal. Does not mean cruiser player should be happy about that, when WG is handing substatial survivability buff in a guise of quality of life improvement.

Someone on reddit ( called "CN_W" made a highly possible suggestion: " Best guess? Based on precedent (French BB and USN CL collections), a camo for the Lightning and perhaps an alternate pattern for Cossack " I would be happy with that for a small (16 item) collection! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please note that the information in the Development Blog is preliminary. am I missing something? seems to me like this is just a slightly fatter (slower but more HP) Shchors that can single-fire its three 4km torps per side (woooohooooo)... I mean, hooray for a non-gimmicky premium that isnt just flat out better than the tech tree version, but this seems a bit... bland? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[UNICS] Solo_Wing_Potato Players 317 posts 7,782 battles Report post #11914 Posted October 16, 2018 Of course a prem Soviet cruiser, it makes perfect sense, they're pretty thin on the ground. It's not like there's a line that had its one and only prem cruiser removed from sale and could do with a replacement. /s 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CR33D] fumtu [CR33D] Players 3,842 posts 38,978 battles Report post #11915 Posted October 16, 2018 Lazo was planed as eleventh ship of Chapayev Class. This could be Chapayev class as originally designed in 1938 but not 100% sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[UTW] ShinGetsu Weekend Tester, In AlfaTesters 8,985 posts 7,359 battles Report post #11916 Posted October 16, 2018 I just don't understand why giving to it the gimmick of the single torp launch since those are almost unusable 4km range torpedoes. And those squishy USSR cruiser hate short range in the first place... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FAILS] BruceRKF Players 1,077 posts 27,204 battles Report post #11917 Posted October 16, 2018 That is a Chapayev with A Hull AA, but B Hull maneuverability and health (almost) and spotter plane instead of radar. So, straight up better than Shchors? Figures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And those squishy USSR cruiser hate short range in the first place... See, that's the thing. People will sit there wondering "Well, who cares about a Shchors that has single launch 4 km torps? When you use them, you sure don't have the time for those antics." instead of wondering how a Shchors with better range and better hp is justified. Also slightly better concealment by 100 metres or so, but who cares. The rudder shift is a second worse, the turning radius 10 m better, the citadel protection cannot be worse than Shchors and while the single file is effectively stupidly useless, you do get 3 torps instead of 4 per side, but with more damage per torp and "only" 65 knots instead of 70.

A Dido class cruiser would be nice though. While we are at it, my German fleet would like a mid-tier light cruiser for training captains.
