Yeah... really don't know about this one TB. Okay it's novel so full marks to WeeGee for trying something new rather than just, oh... another destroyer or T7 german cruiser... but it might be too quirky. I no longer play the campaign to get ships I don't really want, so until I see some CC gameplay I'm planning to sit this out. There's plenty else to do in the game still, for me to enjoy.
I'm beyond excited for this. I'm obsessed with the Italian BBs and cruisers. And I'm just an overall agile and aggressive brawler. This ship is what I've been waiting for!!!!!!!!
This is a ship which I have to admit is so far outside my comfort zone that I won't be playing it unless at some point there's a bureau requirement. On the other hand I will be waiting with my BBs primed and ready to detonate these ships as and when they potato l, as I am sure they will.
Quirk?...oh yes...workarounds; oh definitely but i doubt most would or could...definitely not a novices ship...all the more reason to not sleep on this, especially after shes released and the rare one shows*
This ship and the Velos are just so underwhelming this is better then Velos but not by much. the fact this can be matches to Legendary Tier is sad this Tier to 7 be more okay, same with Velos, This ship is a huge gimmick, this ship as you said has to give up broadside to use them well both I bet, but in this game that is common, plus as I say your boardside to someome on the map, Now this ship with its 33 knot stock speed, its SAP secondaries, and SP, and AP main to I bet no HE, this is made to hunt down DDs, and the Light CLs, and maybe Heavy CL, that speed is good can keep you in range of faster DDs, lets you out run some of the CLs, and most BBs, Now you do not want to fight BBs, or the Super CLs, with this, its not up to that. bad fire arcs, slow trops, 8 12in guns, is not that great because of the bad turret placment. This is to me a look at the mini map ship, know were the heavy hitters are at all times, at the start of the match to also look at the screen were it shows the ships in the match, so you know what ships are there. To know when to not fire your guns to stay dark, or go dark, But even saying all that still at a bad tier WG needs to look at what ship this could face now hey tier 9 PC tier 8 here.
