I was going to buy it, but seeing as you can get it for free, and you don't get the special campaign for Graf Spee owners the rest of the servers get, I'll be saving my money. 

 

Now, if we had the additional campaign, I would have bought it, but as it is now, there is no incentive in buying it if you can get it for free.

Not able to do amount of battles in specific periods, so I already bought that nice ship. In first battles I appreciated 8.5 km torpedos against smoked DDs :)

Not interested in giving WG too much money, so after spending 8€ this morning in 2 of those Santa's crates, my next purchase will be at least by mid 2017.

Not buying but grinding.

 

Santa presents gave me more than enough Premium Ships, so i want to do the grind for the Graf Spee. :honoring:

No, if we had the second campaing would have thought about it. This way I can't find any reason to pay for it.

I spent the money on some of the new crates, which are on the other hand quite nice.

Do you mean the 'Manouvers in the Atlantic' campaign?

 

I have that showing in my port

I would not have bought it. But I like the missions to get her for free. Everything else around that event is just sad. I would have liked to have the campaign from a gameplay point of view. But buying her just for that... :amazed:

As a huge Whale I used to buy everything as long as it came afloat.

First premium I'm skipping. Feels weird.

Well given I want the ship anyway and don't have unlimited time if I had the same option as the other servers to get everything the best way for me to do it would have been to buy the ship and grind the convoy campaign. 

 

If all regions had the option of convoy or to buy the camo I might have bought the tirpitz camo and played for the GS. 

 

Since this is not the case I will now do the GS campaign and NOT purchase the tirpitz camo. 

 

So actually thanks WG for saving me some money :)

Yes, as after Christmas I'm leaving for New Year vacations, so I won't have time to grind it. To purchase her is the only option then.

Added the text to the final option. It means you were not going to buy it anyway. No see the difference between those that woud have bought it if we had the additional campaign that other servers have but we lack (like myself)

 

I don't have a problem giving money to WG, cause I really like the game, but there is no incentive in buying the ship as it is, unless you just don't want to grind.

The Graf Spee campaign is so easy, taking into acount, how many days we have to get the pins for each stage...

 

However, my vote would be: No, I would not buy the Spee, even though I am interested in that ship, because I am confident I will get it for free. But I would not buy it if there was no campaign for it.

I'm thinking of buying it for 1 of my division mates. At the end of week 3. Seems like a hilarious troll gift!!

On cruisers I like lots of barrels that shoot lots of stuff in a short amount of time.

So - no :red_button:

 

Seems like a hilarious troll gift!!

 

The Mikasa is too obvious?

Won't be buying it. Not that interested in it and can grind it anyway.

 

Wouldn't have bought it anyway even if there were the extra missions - I don't like the slippery slope of needing to buy something to unlock extra content. 

You shouldn't need to buy something in order to have a chance at unlocking something else, and no having to do it all in a few days with lots of games per day needed doesn't count imo.

No, because currently I'm too annoyed at WG's treatment of their EU playerbase to be willing to give them any more money...even though I want the ship right damn now as it's a classic. I'll be grinding it, since that doesn't involve giving WG any money.
