[CGER] Northern_Nightowl Players 544 posts 14,918 battles Report post #21427 Posted January 13 I played a cruiser, Atago, and lost (time ran out while we were behind on points). Normally, I'm bad in cruisers. But here, I got more base XP by a comfortable margin than the player placed first(!) on the winning team.

[CGER] Northern_Nightowl Players 544 posts 14,918 battles Report post #21428 Posted January 14 Sorry for double posting, but I just feel like I can't avoid it. I just experienced a hilarious moment in a Kitakaze battle. Please take a look at the number of "Flesh wound" achievements and my total sinkings here. Indeed, I had launched torpedoes towards the damaged red carrier and got sunk shortly afterwards. But the Vittorio Veneto drove close to his mate, colliding with him by the look of it. Both hugged the map border, my fish spread came in, and... BOOOM. That was funny. Regards, Nightowl 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BREW] Bland_42 Players 751 posts 10,864 battles Report post #21429 Posted January 14 Must say that this result surprised me, considering that I still have the basic hull and the short range for guns... and if that Musashi didn't cittadelled me in the bow, I would have rammed him/her.

[-IAN-] IanH755 Players 2,100 posts 7,141 battles Report post #21430 Posted January 14 [Operations] - This level of poor individual performance in an Op against Bots is simply staggering to me and I demand that those players who after 15 minutes still couldn't kill a single bot are banned for life by WG, then publicly flogged, tarred, feathered and finally hung, draw and quartered Seriously though I don't think I've ever seen a team of 5 humans only manage to kill 1 bot between them before, thats just amazing to me considering they played in great (almost OP) ships for Ops like the Massachusetts, Mainz and even the Hipper etc!

Mad_Dog_Dante Players 6,636 posts Report post #21431 Posted January 14 We turned around a losing match by retreating to our cap full of enemies, killing them one by one. Sadly no time left to sink the carrier that was close to me at the end of the round. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-IAN-] IanH755 Players 2,100 posts 7,141 battles Report post #21439 Posted January 15 [Operations] - A nice Atlanta game where I concentrated on the DD's and left the cruisers (mostly) to the BB's on my team, but those Akizuki's in the Harbour at the end with their firepower are certainly something to make the heart pump faster. and I'm also starting to see this type of game happen more and more now, with only 2 people carrying a whole team with 5 out of 7 having <1000xp which is what I consider to be a "minimum" requirement when your playing against Bots and win. 15 hours ago, lup3s said: who needs torps anyway Any chance you could attach the replay for that game, it looks like an absolutely epic!!!!

[AMOC] NewHorizons_1 [AMOC] Players 3,860 posts 46,899 battles Report post #21442 Posted January 15 Me dipping my toe into the unfamiliar & murky waters of randoms. Took a fair bit of damage from the sub (probably responsible for most of the the Dreadnought) while trying to pressure the eastern flank. But fortunately, with Cunningham in command I got an extra heal after my 2nd kill. Tried a few times to get the Okt. R but he went dark ... just as my guns were about to load. Eventually landed a few hits on him though. Pensacola came in from the centre and was too much of a tempting broadside target to not pass up. Towards the end, I was about all that left on the flank with an enemy sub & Mutsuki for company. Thankfully, the rest of the team has secured the opposite cap and started to take the centre one, so we overtook on points. So time to GTFO from there and not die - popped the engine boost and headed towards centre and south of the map away from the torpedo threats. The Mutsuki gave chase and unleashed at least one torp salvo, but he made the mistake of revealing himself so it gave me a chance of predicting where & when torps may be around. And because he was visible :- time to load the 15" HE and fire! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
