Well. The only IJN ship that I have is the Tachibana. Can I sell that funky Yamato camo? :Smile_trollface:

That worth 5000 doubloons. Research the Yamato instead of selling the camo. It's a very good ship.

Obtained the AEGIS Aegir Ägir for before lunch:

 

Say whatever else you might want about her, she's certainly a nice looking boat.

[Submarines] - Honestly, if we were given a choice between No CV's or No Subs I'd pick No CV's every damn time. Getting spotted by a sub or CV is bad, but only a CV can keep attacking me almost none stop with rocket planes for 1/4 of my health per attack whilst my AA does virtually nothing in return. A sub is restricted to torpedo reload times, slowness of the torps etc making it more balanced to fight against.

 

Anyway, enough anti-CV rambling - Despite being down to 1500hp within the first few minutes due to CV focus, once it moved over to the other flank and left me alone I could get a good game going. I died to the old 5.9/6.1m exploit which is rare but I was in a DD fight with the Farragut during my run in on the sub and couldn't tell it's depth and drove straight into it's torps at 100m or less, which is totally my mistake.

In all the games played today, i felt the need to blacklist all my team mates for being dumb :etc_swear::etc_swear::etc_swear:.

The game below was an exception, so i hope there is no 1k limit in WoWS like there is in WoT, as usually, i BL only CVs and Smolensk players regardless of team.

However, my teams were so :etc_swear:, especially the BB :etc_swear:, i had to extend that curtesy to all my team mates.

 

First good game i had today, it helped a lot that my team was able to think at breathe at the same time.

Was already out of reports so i couldn't report the CV :etc_swear: for focusing me all game, so a special place on my black list will have to do.

Also cheers sucker for the AA Def Exp award! :Smile_medal:

Got my revenge on him later on, but despite firing 3 full salvos directly into his stern (he had 39HP left at that point!), i couldn't sink him, which would have given me the Kraken.

This game gave me enough FreeXP, so i could unlock this baby! :cap_like:

Time to grind out the ITA line again to get the RPs for the Siegfried and at the same time grinding the FXP for Ægir.

Grinding the entire IJN BB tree? Hell, no - I will just FXP the thing as soon as I have enough accumulated... shouldn't take more than 3 years. :Smile_veryhappy:

Your choice of course, but you will be missing out on some good ships there if you do.

You are right, but I won't. I already got the IJN BB line elsewhere. I specialize on one or two nations or even specific lines per account to avoid overcrowding a single account with hundreds of ships. It serves my need for having things neatly organized and within reasonable boundaries. Haven't read anything in the ToS that forbids playing multiple accounts, so I guess that's OK with WG.

First game: JB just being JB, that reverse ram into the SS was fun though. Second: First ever Ægir game, and a new personal best in plane kills..So far I like her.

I had a blast game in Nelson (by my standards of course, not everyday I get over 2k base XP).

I had a very good teammates, supported me all the way. At some point it was my Nelson, cruiser and 2 DDs against 4 BBs, 2 cruisers and DD, and we pulled it off. Made up :)

Finally got the Yamato two days ago and I have to say I really like her.

Tier 6 is absolutely unplayable today... To the point where you need one of these to actually pull of a win...

Actually there are few nice ships there. Kongo is special, Fuso is OPish, Amagi is very enjoyable, I only freeXP-ed Izumo as it looks ugly. It was buffed since so it might worth a try.

Jervis does the job well: 9 wins, 1 top of the team loss.

Question for the people who dig into numbers: Which camo yields more commander XP? The "normal" permacamo (XP bonus, I guess) or this special one (commander XP bonus)?

They yield the same, because the XP bonus counts into the captain's XP, too. The buyable camo gives better freeXP, for the same reasons. The economic bonuses are the same (service cost reduction and silver gain).

Was in Co-op on NA server, going for the 185k damage in a single game mission in JB. Came close a few times, then eventually smashed it:

Not a bad day at all, especially for a Sunday. As a bonus, second Ægir game.

Lets see, todays haul..Ægir showing she's far better in practice than on paper, again. Thunderer just being Thunderer. And Mainz showing why she's worth every cent I paid for her.

Within the scope of 1) I only started playing Cleveland – my first T8 cruiser – in randoms less than a week ago and 2) a pretty comprehensive defeat, I'm quite pleased with this new damage record.shot-20_06.15_18_57.02-0735.thumb.jpg.e318e88269c7a7932dc271034c9bec60.jpgshot-20_06.15_18_57.11-0961.thumb.jpg.9440fba25509f75c5f0dd2f6a46785c7.jpgshot-20_06.15_18_57.16-0248.thumb.jpg.a5392011d09cbf566e637eaa8add71c1.jpg
