HatsuzukiKaiNi Beta Tester 215 posts 6,656 battles Report post #3 Posted March 24, 2017 178 mm rocket launchers? They're an Anti-Aircraft weapon, they were a bit on the awful side but if WG bothers they should make for a pretty visual. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Widar_Thule Players 322 posts Report post #6 Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Finally, finally, finally the mighty "HOOD" seems to be coming to WOWS. Although the "HOOD" was jokingly named "the largest submarine in the Royal Navy" because she was rather wet under-decks etc. she will surely or hopefully not suffer from that in WOWS. Let us hope she does not behave like the WOWS "KÖNIGSBERG" and "NÜRNBERG" with regards to blowing up often, since that is not fun at any time and especially not so in a premium ship. Let us hope the ship performs in WOWS. Edited March 24, 2017 by Widar_Thule Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SCRUB] T0byJug Quality Poster 5,358 posts 25,531 battles Report post #7 Posted March 24, 2017 The rocket launchers could be teh new weapon they are talking about.. Could be a defensive fire type of consumable. Torpedoes As someone pointed out to me with the new IJN CV this stat pick is historical facts not ship facts. Though the Torpedo tubes are above water they are not trainable so i dont think they will be in game. unless they role them out for all BBs that had them, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #13 Posted March 24, 2017 Only problem I can see is that a gross amount of these will be in game and further mess up the high amount of BBs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hood is huge and fairly lightly armoured. Should have Warspite guns which are okay... Maybe it's soft stats will be buffed but I can see your point! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
