I don’t have a low tier destroyer any more, maybe rebuy wickes or clemson.

You want stealth torps for maximum carnage.

campbeltown campbeltown,

If you haven’t seen it yet, Jingles goes through the tech tree with real life stats.

Ambushes, that’s where it’s at. Fire one side of torps then the other. Then set the rest on fire on the way out.

Bodge 2016-08-18 12:28:00 UTC #185

Queuing up in german BBs takes forever. Hardly worth bothering at the moment.

I’ve got the Nassau, will try to get some matches tonight, otherwise I’ll just take advantage of the 3x first win bonus for my other ships.

Cei 2016-08-18 12:35:13 UTC #187

Takes about 3mins to get a match at the moment in the Nassau.

Blys is available for purchase in tech tree.

Bodge 2016-08-18 13:55:26 UTC #188

oooohhh… Is it there to stay?

Cei 2016-08-18 13:56:50 UTC #189

Usually is the case! Great ship from what I’ve heard but will be zero use as a captain trainer.

Bodge 2016-08-18 14:08:34 UTC #190

I think i will wait for a discount. I rather want one, but the maneuverability is a bit hmmm. It seems kinda like a russian DD with better torps.

Cei 2016-08-18 14:13:52 UTC #191

Pretty much. However with a 15pt captain it’s amazing. Stealth torps, stealth guns…and good guns at that.

Bodge 2016-08-18 14:34:42 UTC #192

Yeah but that is gonna take ages.

mrpier 2016-08-20 16:25:51 UTC #193

I played with a Flint the other day, piloted well they must be superannoying to play against.

Also got my third Kraken. Colorado ain’t half bad.

mrpier 2016-08-22 07:04:47 UTC #194

Unlocked and bought the Budyonny, early impressions are very good. Nurnberg reload with soviet gun arcs.

Scharnhorst can’t stand toe to toe with Colorado/Nagato, unless they get close enough to torp.

Bismarck with AFT/Manual secondaries is hilarious, not much damage but you will be set on fire and the impact of being peppered constantly from 10.5 km is tremendous.

Bismarck is an anti-dd battleship, german sonar+awesome secondaries means they will have a bad day torping or straying to close.

mrpier 2016-09-08 06:30:21 UTC #195

New boats!

Bought the Blyskawica in a sale, so far so good. New captain is a pain though.

Also got the Mahan also on a sale, haven’t played it much since I’m grinding cash for something else. I should have the 9.8 million credits for the North Carolina this weekend or early next week.

Just noticed this thread, I have been playing this for almost a year now and have, well, too many boats…
I am darloc on the EU server so fell free to add me, all my friends stopped playing this but I still like it. So if you want to derp around I am your guy! Are you guys going on Mumble usually or using the In game VOIP?

mrpier 2016-09-08 15:52:26 UTC #197

Hi, we use Discord now, although the mumble server is still up.

We manage to division up a few times a week for the most part.

Toxik 2016-09-09 08:05:43 UTC #198

Cool I will jump on it next time I am a free for some division!

Aerothorn 2016-09-12 04:27:40 UTC #199

Hey all - interesting in playing with you guys sometime if the time zones work out. However, in the server dropdown, I can only select “WOWS NA.” Are you guys all EU? Is there any way to switch servers?

Aerothorn 2016-09-12 04:30:20 UTC #200

Edit: Figured out how the switching happens. Before I do it I do want to check what times you folk regular play - as with PS2, it may just be impossible due to the time zone difference.
