Application accepted, I hope you weren't looking for Fleet Battles because everyone I play with hates them :smith:


195 rejected applications since last I accepted someone.

Orion, this is Sperglord Actual.
Come on home.
They released German DDs today, I have no idea if they are good yet but it did make me remember this game exists.

Also looks like a handful of crew skills changed but :lol: at trying to min/max all that again.

EDIT: German DDs get magnetic torpedos, except they do fuckall damage for the most part and their guns are extremely low on the damage scale. Don't seem to be very good overall, the 5/7/9 look like they could be okay.. but probably not.

We'll start,
like many good things,
with a bear.

The Mabnetics are actually surprisingly good because while they don't do a ton of base damage, they're really fast and easy to hit with. And the guns fire quick, they're accurate, and have massive shell velocity. We'll see how it goes.

Are there premium ships that were discontinued? Someone posted this picture of what I assume is the new "Cyber" paint scheme, but I can't find that ship in-game. The bridge's style reminds me of the North Carolina Plan I, and the secondary layout and aft area look like a South Dakota. I can't find any BB that has 2 thin funnels like that.

A mystery boat.

Mabnetic torpedoes are basically what's required to make me stop being dogshit with torpedoes.

What a childish tactic!
Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!

Over on 4chan I read about messing around with the game files to produce custom skins for ships.

I have a suspicion that one is Arpeggio related.

The new german DDs seem pretty fun if only for the fact that you have a better chance of dealing damage with their mabnetic torpedoes when I wildly spray them towards the enemy. Keep in mind that they are actually a separate ammo you can choose to use or not use when the situation demands, so balance your pre-match ammo allocation accordingly.

Am I a manipulative abuser in real life, or do I just roleplay one on the Internet for fun? You decide!
I wasn't that impressed with the tier 2 through 4 :hitler: destroyers (and the tier 2 is just worse than the tier 1) but the Z1 is ok. The guns aren't Porter quality but they're not bad and it drives better than a Porter.
The torpedoes don't do much damage unless you hit a destroyer or a sub, but they still cause magazine explosions pretty often. When I was in the tier 4 destroyer some Z1 tried to charge into my smoke and I hit it with all eight torpedoes :fuckoff:

Reposting this here because really, I liked this game before it got nominated.

I understand it's a nominally a cruiser-submarine, but that is no excuse:

It's too bad that peak interwar insanity merely topped at cruiser-submarines instead of battleship-submarines.

Fighting other German CAs in my Deutschland is wonderful because I know a deep secret about them:

It can reliably pen them with its HE.

A thing is happening. I won't be there due employment obligations, but for those of you who can, please send the pubbies my regards when you sink them.
