Is this true
>>122450689
>>122450427
Fuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>122450768
Yes.
>>122450832
Plastic bottles are her weakness? Why?
>>122450768
BB's get more accurate. Subs are hilariously OP. Ships maneuver and stop like racing cars and
It does some things better than WoWS, namely more content and modes, but some other stuff worse than WoWS, like visual quality and ship handling.
>Gnevny torp upgrade
>+1 to torp speed, nothing else
This is a joke, right?
>>122451003
She has to drink all of them,
So are jap CV still OP or not?

I didn't need this
>>122352954
>only the most dedicated of autismos who play 14 hours per day with premium accounts will ever see tier 8 or even tier 10 for that matter
If you do one win daily in one line you would be at least t8 by now without premium.
So are CVunts still considered the cancer of WoW or have people realized that cruisers shit on the hopes and dreams of carriers simply by existing.
>>122451645
Via exp earned or credits? Because you will receive enough exp to go to the next tier but not enough credits to actually buy the ship. I had an additional 100,000 exp on my Myoko before I could just afford the Mogami.
>>122451696
>cruisers
>shit on CVs
Do you play tier 4?
>>122451906
>tier iv
>cruisers have no active AA active
>cruisers are just getting their first torpedo planes
>ships all around have shit AA
You make a very compelling point. They fucked up with very early tier CV vs. balance. Later on when a single cruiser can murder 10 planes and cause 2 of them to fire like drunk russians while protecting 4 other ships. The argument swings back.
Got mail from WG with some premium code to get me to play wows, but it runs like dogshit so I'm not gonna do that. Any idea if the code is universally usable?
>>122452056
Not a single cruiser in this game have better AA than battleships of equal tier.
>>122451870
Xp.
>>122452241
Active is more important then raw AA ability.
>>122452741
No it isn't you giant baka. Is it that fucking hard to wait for cooldown?
>I want to click everything uncontestedly without putting any effort in abloo-bloo-bloo
They have already nerfed it to 2 charges per game for you manbaby.
>>122453029
>good AA alone
>ok I lost 3 planes and cripple or sink a ship
>Active AA
>ok I lost 7 planes and MAYBE hit with 2 torps doing less then half damage on a cruiser while my planes fly back for 2 minutes before I can even send them out again
Point is CV's will avoid any target under active cruiser protection. Itis just never worth it.
>28 hits
>8 citadel penetrations
I fucking love the Konigsberg, it just deletes cruisers below 8km
>>122453165
CVnt please. Even Dank Memes doesn't get enough bonus damage from barrage to shoot down your planes like this. It still has less AA dps than even NoCar let alone Iowa and Montana.
So i hear anu uninstalled?
I guess i kind of quit too.. with out even realizing it. It was a conversation with rapespammer that made me realize it i guess.
I just posted this topic in the ST forum. I wont tell you what it says, because the ST forum is under NDA :^)
Was fun guys. Honestly i have more of a reason to not quit wows that anyone else given my long history with, but even that cant keep my interest propped up forever...
I feel regretful, but also free.
The last game i ever played was a victory in zao with trump. That was a good note to end on i think.
>>122454098
ST?
>>122454098
You quit because anu isnt playing cv in wows anymore.
Hes playing cv in steel ocean anyway.
>>122454098
rip in peace allahu akbar
>>122450689
Why didn't they use a mechanical saw to break through?
>>122452056
I'd argue that CV vs BB balance at 4 is fine, excluding the arkansas beta.
The Myogi when fully upgraded is deceptively fast, and has enough AA to rip apart tier 4 TB's
The Wyoming can just drift and deny all day unless two jap carriers coordinate strikes against it.
The tier 3's are sitting ducks though.
>>122454813
i was going to quit soon, hearing anu quit just made me decide to go ahead and get it over with. If everyone's quitting ive no reason to drag it out.
>>122454768
stupertest
Its the only place worthy of my quitting post since the alpha forums are locked now and usergroup:members are all brs and tomatos so posting in the normal forum is out of the question.
>>122450768
There are aspects I want to like, but the overall cheapness of it all and clusterfuck of a UI prevents me from doing so.
>>122456237
Graphics can be improved though, but these are chinks we are talking about.
>>122457373
It's not the graphics I have a problem with, it's the ship physics.
When battlestations pacific feels more authentic there's a problem. I just can't get into the game when it feels like RC cars.
>>122450107
ughm? it's just some music and water gurgling?
>>122450768
>World of Warships where Cruisers just rule everything
do we play the same world of warships
>>122458279
That was why I questioned the statement
>Kitakami being rewarded to EU server players who got to the end of ranked battles
>teamkilling increases amongst high tier battles overnight
This was a stupid idea, this ship should have never been put in the game. It's essentially designed for teamkilling, with 40 torpedoes ready to fire at any time.
These are supposed to be good players too, since they've completed all of ranked battles; imagine what a new player would do with this ship if they sold it in a bundle.
>>122458484
>literally reposting a reddit screenshot from days ago
Last match I was on my Nagamom, trying to defend the base in two brothers from several bb's and cruisers with a couple of teammates.
>friendly atago and NorCa get r3kt by an Izumo.
> Enemy destroyers + Izumo pushing and capping.
>Friendly fubuki on enemy base against another enemy bb spouting bullshit about us not defending our base.
Why does this shit happen to me?
>>122458520
I was linked from the WoWS forums. I'm surprised how you knew that the image was from reddit, anon.
>http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/36786-the-dwindling-amount-of-players-of-wows-time-for-statistics-graphs/
Should we be concerned, guys? The game isn't sucking in enough new players.
My guess is that WG seriously underestimated how important and popular the Royal Navy is, and how delaying the RN pissed off a lot of die hard fans.
>>122458559
because it was said on the wows forum
anyway it's from days ago

>Rusky logic determines that Wright's first plane with a pistol can beat a Sukhoi
>>122458680
>people are still whining about DDs
I thought Jingles already told them off time and time again?
>>122458680
Proportionally EU has the problem.
RU and NA differences in peak launch to current are fairly minimal in comparison. Especially when you consider nominal attrition rates.
The delay of the RN is about .01% of the problem. People are sick of WG's incompetence in managing the game and it shows. Then people hear the game is being terribly mismanaged by word of mouth and don't even give it a chance.
Struggling with the Aoba at the moment. What are the best upgrades for 4 slots that it has?
>>122459109
Aoba is a gunboat, put gun and rudder related upgrades on it.
However Aoba doesn't even need upgrades to perform, likely you're just not playing her properly.
>>122459160
Main Turret 1, Rudder Mod 2, AA Defense Mod 2, Engine Mod 1 is what I use.
>>122459160
What are the gun upgrades? Accuracy or Traverse?
>>122459221
I use neither.
Aoba's guns are accurate enough. Traverse speed also worsens your rate of fire if you noticed.
>>122459210
Don't bother with AA defense mods on japanese cruisers. You're not an AA bote, you're a gunbote.
Gun mod1, fire control mod 1, steering gear mods. However she really doesn't need any of these to perform well.
>>122459426
Worked for me though, Aoba's AA rating got significantly boosted to 45 rating, could be better if I get BFT and AFT but I picked Awareness and Demolition Expert instead.
Cleveland got the other two and has a rating of 58.
>>122459552
AA rating is a placebo for the most part.
How are you playing Aoba? Are you trying to put your rear turret on target at all?
>>122459610
If I'm against DDs.
Attempting to show my rear turret versus a BB with its guns pointing at me usually can and will get me deleted in less than a minute.
>>122459772
Don't do it against cruisers either, and even be careful against Russian DD's as they can citpen you with AP fairly reliably if they get your flat side.
When I went through Aoba I just stuck with battleship groups that actually pushed the enemy, and made enemy battleships remember tsushima in between shooting cruisers and DD's. Don't forget your torpedoes either.
>>122459941
since they have just 130mm guns, the chances are ru dd will simply hurl he shells anyway
at any rate, does the penetration ability of the usn 127mm dd guns differ from ru dd 130mm that much?
>>122459109
Aoba requires you to angle yourself, A LOT. NEVER broadside ANYTHING in the Aoba unless you know it's not going to fire at you. You have a massive, lightly armoured citadel, but luckily it's not as bad as it was pre-patch 5.1. I've bounced countless BB shells in IJN cruisers via angling.
Always keep enemies on one side of the ship or keep terrain between you and the enemies on the opposite side of your turrets.
Your guns are amazing, 10km and under and they become railguns and absolutely deletes cruisers via multiple, delicious citadel penetrations with AP. Otherwise their HE does amazing damage, DDs to become incapacitated and then rapidly explode, and BBs and other CAs to be perpetually on fire. Remember to grab the tier 4 +3% fire skill for your captain. They also have amazing accuracy. I don't have 40% main battery accuracy for nothing.
You should have learned all this in the Fruity Taco which is an equally good ship which just got better when they buffed it. IJN cruisers become mini-BBs at tier 5 and up, play them like one.
Mods I throw on are Main Battery 1 (don't want to lose one of your precious 3 turrets), Gun fire control (for even more accuracy), Steering (Aoba has an uncanny knack for getting it's rudder blown), and the Rudder mod (to angle faster and avoid torps better).
>>122459941
Against lower-tier CLs and Clevelands are kinda okay, they have a lower chance of penetrating Aoba. I am aware of Gnevy and above DDs having that power. I kept saying that soviet DDs can and wreck cruisers (Khabarovsk can wreck a whole field of baBBies that doesn't have a carrier camping Khaba with a durable squadron)
>>122460134
Not the good ones.
The good ones know when to switch shell types.
Russian DD guns also have a flatter shell trajectory.
>>122460134
Khabarovsk can penetrate Zao's hull. Soviet DDs are pure gunboats.
>>122459610
>>122460137
>>122460176
Not much, I usually use the two front cannons.
The traverse is kinda bad too.
I've chosen Main Battery 1, Gun Mod 1, and Rudder speed. I haven't decided yet on the 3rd module.
Thanks!
>>122458484
>These are supposed to be good players too, since they've completed all of ranked battles
But winning in ranked battles wasn't about skil, anon.
It was about randommly getting into the less retarded team more orften in a row.
Myoko Or Mogami?
>>122461913Mogami is objectively better, though.
>>122461913
Why not both?
>>122449932
If only she hadnt such shit guns.
>>122450427
>>122449891
I thought sub would instantly implode if hull was compromised under extreme pressure
No slowly leaky water
>>122461913
Mogami is an upgraded Myoko
Faster turret turn
Better turret layout
Quad tube torps
Will WG ever fix the caps on the names or will it be permanent?
>>122460134
You can pen CA with DD gun at very close range and enemy turn full broadside for you
But you can just torp them anyway
SO
Should I quit to SO if I started to play WoWS like 2 weeks ago?
I like that they added submarines to increase usefulness of DDs.
>>122465451
Try it out to see if you like it. Some people don't like how the game plays.
>>122465627
Normally I would do that but since it's another f2p grindy multi game I will go through hours to only end up disliking it or accepting it.
>>122465451
so is shit

implying it's the only problem
here is a nice review on the twitter, written by some chink so the grammar is even worse than mine (: but it highlights what's wrong with that game
http://steamcommunity.com/id/Tarlafic/recommended/390670/
>Some of the reviews said that, this game is a copy of world of warships.
>Accurately, it's really not a copy of world of warships. It's a copy of world of tanks!!!
>The gameplay of this game is very terrible, and doesn't feel like of driving a naval ship.
>For example, the control of ship is very agile, make it possible, and ingame you will often, do a flank attack. This shouldn't, and couldn't be happened in the real naval battles.
>And, the weapon control is also strange. They directly copy the artillery control from WOT, so you could imagine that, about 10 or more players, just stop their ship in the battle fields, to wait their weapon aiming.
>The worst thing of this game is, it have a super pay2win mechanism . There's many commanders in the game, many of them have average abilities, but some of them are kinda too OP.
>And, how to get these commanders? Buy it? No!
>You could only get the commanders, by a random draw system like Gacha (or capsule?) from japanese mobile card game. If you want to get the powerful commanders, you need to pay really really much.
>I'm not a fan of wargaming series, but for me, this game is even worse than world of warships, at least WOWS could make you feel like you are playing a naval game, not a commanders collection game with tanks drving on the water.
>>122465451
Steel Ocean has more ships, submarines and night battles. But It looks like shit and the ships handle like RC cars. Also, the spotting system is even more hilarious than in WoWS, so fights end up starting at 5 or less km away. P2W crew and consumables make WG ALMOST look good (if it wasn't for the credit jewing after T8 in WoWS). I don't know how grindy or P2W the grind itself is at higher tiers tho.
I'd rather keep playing WoWS, or otherwise stop playing the genre entirely since there are no good alternatives.
>>122466527
The crews yes, but you don't even need prem consumables.
>>122466243
I could overlook a lot about the game if I could get over the water tank controls. I just can't though. Botes will actually apply throttle automatically to turn if you're idle when you apply rudder. That's how precisely they ripped tanks.
someone asked why a few people played aircraft carrier. well I'm struggling with my shitty hosho with a shitty commander against level max air craft carrier who 1v3 all my squadron with just one squadron. and every game is like this. i'm getting 200-500xp per game no joking
holy shit every game is like this
>3 fires on my bb from soviet noobbotes.
>fleeing from them
>Use repair consumable
>hit in the engine, cannot flee anymore.
> 3 fires at once, again.
>die.
I fucking hate low caliber HE spam.
>>122469452
yeah, your bb should be invulnerable except from other bb, right, babbie?
>>122466825
>the water tank controls
So much this.
If tehy would just change this so the ships would stop feeling like RC carrs, the game might actually be good.
>>122469452
I love the sound of flamed BB
Which module upgrade should I buy for my Fubuki, the concealment upgrade, or enemy detectability upgrade? Which will help me more against other DDs?
>>122469708
If it's one or two fires, i don't care, it's okay.
But this shit is too much, really. 3 fires at once, and twice.
I fucking prefer to be sunk by a barrage of torpedoes than by fucking lowskill aim HE spam fest.
>>122470630
Concealment
>>122470630
Will it help you more if they can't see you, or will it help you more to have increased draw distance against enemies that you cannot see?
PROTIP: The increased draw distance module is completely useless, the only two ships in the game that maybe sometimes potentially may have any use for it are the kagero and Shimakaze, because they have a draw distance of 18km, but thier torps can have to 20km range.
And even on those ships, you are better off taking the reduced detection range.
>>122470997
>kagero
>>122470997
>The increased draw distance module is completely useless
So theres no reason to spend money on either of the last module upgrade for BBs? Cause concealment sure as hell wont do my Montana any good either.
What ships are the best at grinding credits?
>>122471138
What's the point of seeing further than 30km when ships pop up only at their detection range?
>tfw everything just feels futile when you know you'll never reach tier 9 or 10 anyway
>>122471258
I never was sure how it worked. Always guessed it basically increased all enemies concealment range for you.
>>122471475
If only, anon, if only.
>>122471258
Wait I thought it let you detect enemy outside of their normal conceal range
>>122471823
>he didn't test it out in the CBT
>>122471906
So I was tricked
>>122470630
you can buy a concealment *anything* on a dd and you even ask?
>>122464586
Each compartment is water tight and the sailors are trained to close them off during combat. So if there is a hull breach it may be contained to only a part of the ship. So 3-4 rooms may flood but the vessel overall remains unflooded.
Issue arises when too many compartments flood and the vessel loses buoyancy and sinks. At that point one of two things will happen.
You go so deep the pressure causes the bulkheads to fail and room by room each compartment's door fail and are flooded. Meaning a slow and knowing death as you hear each room ahead of you flood under the weight of the ocean and you know yours in 4th in line.
OR
You settle on the bottom not deep enough to crack the pressure hatches. In which case unless you got a rescue sub in the area and they know exactly where you are. You sit in the darkness for days or weeks until you suffocate or starve or freeze to death.
>>122471446
Why?
There is no rush.
It's not a race to t10.
t8 is more fun than t9 most of the time.
There is no reason to be upset or sad.
>>122472023
It appears that your capital has indeed been used by the revolutionary workers and peasants to further your own downfall, reactionary imperialist.
>>122472058
if the acquisition range upgrade worked the way I thought it did, to raise everyones concealment range, I think it would be better in some cases.
>>122472072
Oh, right. Sub are build strongly for that after all.
I thought it gonna implode like this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz95_VvTxZM
Ok this is getting fucking annoying. Sometimes after I pop smoke, even when I slow down to 1/4th speed, people sometimes still detect me even if I do nothing. What exactly is the range people can still detect you within smoke? I thought it was something really close like 3km, but a cruiser just caught me 5km away.
>>122472527
sonar i guess
also without sonar it's 2 km
>>122472527
Do they detect you, or just shoot you?
>>122472527
Sona made in germany can detect you at 5km bubble no matter what's in the way
Or you didn't close you AA gun and shoot at aircraft in smoke
>>122472919
Shooting at aircraft in smoke won't get you seen. Already been tested in the training room.
>>122473002
Oops
>>122472919
>>122472892
Oh so sonar works even in smoke? God damnit.
>>122473086
Sonar is WG's counter to smoke and torps.
>>122473114
If it was as passive ability it might actually work that way.
As it is, sonar is a shitty stopgap piece of shit skill noone wants and everyone hates because it feels like they only put it there to keep you from getting barrage earlier.
>>122472504
It would if you were at crush depth but if you just get holed and start to sink. The individual room hatches will fail long before the sub reaches a depth that the entire hull caves in all at once.
>>122473469
I never said it was a good solution.
What do you guys think of mighty jingles?
>>122473469
>If it was as passive ability
you want way too much
the more so they limited sonar to 2 charges since it's already strong
Personally, I heavily considered using Sonar in my Cleveland, especially in the current meta where there isn't too many carriers. The new sonar massively increased the torpedo detection range, not just bypassing smoke.
>>122473821
Even funnier because torp detection bypass smoke, so if those DDs ever launch from inside smoke, you most probably know where they are.
>>122473821
Only KM boats are worth equipping sona on
They had 4.9km range instead of 3.something range
>>122473606
Do you really have to ask in every thread, Jingles?
>>122474023
Jingles comes in here? Like legit with a trip or just joking?
is there a skill which increases the range of sonar, because fucking koenigsbergs feel like they have 5.5 range on it or so
>>122474060
No. But every thread someone asks what do we think about Jingles.
>>122474079
Germans have increased sonar range.
>>122474463
...well?
anybody on SO in the tier 3-4 range?
>>122474561
but it's still slightly less than 5km
>>122474079
afaik no.
>>122474079
certain commanders increase sonar range ( I believe I have one with +750,. But I'm in a match right now so can't be 100% certain how much it boosts it by.)
>>122469210
There is a reason most of the high tier CV population quit. You just understood. Its simply not worth it.
Steel Ocean has much better CV mechanics
>>122475647
>Steel Ocean has much better CV mechanics
And shit everything else. Not like a CVnt would care.
Which is why Anusmati is shilling for SO real hard.
The way ships handle just kills SO. It's like playing WoWP after War Thunder.

Although re-reading your post.. you probably meant WoWS in which case, I believe certain factions have stronger equipment than others? ("mah faction peculiarities!" German = sonar, America gets an extra barrage, etc.)

So new to the game. Been watching a lot of videos though. I am thinking of maining destroyers because they go fast and have a massive FUCK YOU torpedo attack if people are not paying attention.
So the Japanese have the best torpedoes and are the fastest and the Americans have better guns and turning, right?

>>122483375
So the American DD's are faster?
Which are better overall down the tech tree. I want to primarily be using my torpedoes and ducking in and out of fights to stay alive as long as possible. Not kamikaze broadsides.
>>122483483
>So the American DD's are faster?
no )))))))))
>stay alive as long as possible
You're playing the wrong ship class for that
>>122483483
>I want to primarily be using my torpedoes and ducking in and out of fights
japanese destroyers for you, then. USN DDs don't have torpedo ranges beyond spotting range until tier 7, whereas IJN have them from tier 2. Russians never have torp ranges much longer than suicide range until tier 9 or 10 with a camo'd out ship
>>122461913
>no range
vs.
>range
What's more important in a boat made of paper?
>>122484208
forgot to add: IJN destroyers are faster than USN, but the russkies are the real speedbotes of the game. ~43kt top speed from tier 7 onward, and ~38kt on tier 5 and 6

Musashi is fucken hot.
Was hoping things would get better when I upgraded from Hatsuharu to Fubuki...
They really havent. Everybody easily evades torps if I shoot at my max range and I feel so slow and clunky when I need to fight close range.
Should I tough it out till I can get Shima, or start the US DD line?
>>122486298
Don't even bother with USN DDs if you think Fubob is bad.
>>122451003
She's a dog. The reflections scare her.
>>122486270
Yes she is.
>>122486298
I am nearly to Mut on live, but from even CBT I hated everything past Minekaze..
I attempted USN and it is hilarious change of pace! (From a stealthy ninja, to 'MURICA!!!' live knowing you'll die quazi-sucidal gunboat.)
But that was tier 3 and 4 USN.. :^)
>>122486918
Er, to clarify.
That was just advice to the anon to at least try out USN.. He might have fun with them.
>>122484208
Shame IJN DDs aren't equipped with the torpedos they actually had in real life, they'd be unbeatable.
I already wreck shit in Minekaze, and I'm just imagining what I could do with 10km torps.
Or what would happen if KTKM actually had her 20 (40)km long lances.
>>122487649
>Or what would happen if KTKM actually had her 20 (40)km long lances.
Imagine this, but worse.
>>122483375
Kebaberovsk is the fastest)))
>>122487649
IJN cruisers with actual 20 km torps caused torretns of baBBie tears, because the cruisers could actually hurt the BBs.
And the retarded CVnts that liked to just park in a corner or on a beach also cried becasue they ate a torp whenever they got detected while being stuck on a rock or in the corner of the map.
Since WG wants retarded baBBies and CVnts to give them lots of shekels, they nerfed alll torps to lulzy 10km so the crusiers can't actually use their torps in teh intended way and have to use 'ambush' tactics or whatever they call their bullshit ideas.
My advice to WG.

>>122489031
I want torps to have their real ranges. I want CVs to be allowed to fly more squadrons.
I want to sail my boat around in massive empty spaces. I want BBs to be able to roam free without everyone cowering behind islands.
But most of all, I want to sail my DD right past all the enemies and sink some moronic CV ;^)
>>122489174
w-what about cruisers!
>>122489174

So in SO, I just did some basic looking at stats.
The IJN CVs are so inferior to US CVs its funny as shit.
The tier 10 differences are just laughable.
Sure they are cheaper to research and buy., but holy fuck they are inferior in every single way to US CVs.
Considering I've seen nothing but IJN CVs today, I find it funny.
>>122499516
So what would you rate the best tier Xs for each class? I would put the Super Yamato, the jap SS, the US CV and i've still to decide on cruisers
>>122499812
That I cannot accurately answer honestly. Once I get Midway in SO, I'm probably gonna go up another line.
>>122500145You know which one
>>122500691I have a soft spot for the IJN DD botesluts.
>>122501473
I feel you manThey have all kinds of soft spots
I played this when if first came out. I got to my first battleship and couldn't really stand the repetitive combat, everything felt the same no matter what ship or ammo. Has it gotten any better?
>>122502042
Nope.
IJN DD's
>>122502162
W-what if i shill out? Will the grind at least not feel so shitty?
>>122501969
Is this 1000 yen per use?
>>122502042
The first battleships are complete shit. Too slow and inaccurate to accomplish anything. The differences in lines generally become more pronounced the further you go up a tree. But DDs play radically different from the start and CVs turn the game into an RTS.
>>122501969
Now that's a bote I could get behind.
>>122502336
No. The game peaks at tier 5 and 6, after that everything goes downhill. And even at its best WoWS is pretty repetetive.
>>122501969
Akiduki status: rekt beyond repair
>>122499516
have some sperg anon
their bombers are good
>>122502042
Haven't touched it since SO came out. Mostly due to the changes to how armor worked (where broadsides were nearly impenetrable. Though that seems to have been fixed.)
But also because those who I'd have played with swapped over.
>>122503089
Well actually their bombers are worse. CV HP really doesn't matter considering that all CVs evaporate under enemy fire.
The Midway also has 1.6k more resilience compared to the Shinano for the lowered HP in comparison. It has its as resilient as the Des Moines Tier 9 cruiser.
Midway's planes are better in every category that matters.
The Scouts are tougher/faster/and see more and you can have more in your hangar deck.
The TBs are faster/tougher/stronger while being able to carry more.
The DBs are tougher/faster/stronger and against you get to have more in reserve.
Everything about the Midway to me points to it just being overall better. Thanks for posting the side by side. If you could do it for all the BBs and CAs you would please many anons here.
tfw sometimes cant tell if people are talking about SO or WoWS
>>122504146
the nip fighters are more accurate and have a higher dodge
the nip TBs do more damage, have a higher dodge, and lower arming range
the nip DBs have a higher accuracy
The US is better in a lot of ways, but accuracy and damage is really good.
I'll work on BBs later today. I am more of a DD guy.

I want to bring Akiducky and Teruducky to a fancy restaurant, order a bunch of delicious food, and not let them eat any. At the end of the meal, I will have the waiter clear all the leftovers and throw them out.
When they come back to their barracks, there will be a single can of sardines and two bowls of steamed barley for the two of them.

Nip BB good, but radio range is bad. Still having issues finding reasons to play as germany.
Whats the best ships to grind credits with?
And is there any particular tasks I should focus on for gaining the most per match?
