djc_499 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 This was a disturbingly close battle throughout in terms of ship count although we were well ahead on points. The Wisconsin though came through for me in the end. I am sure I could have done better if I could figure out how to more optimally use the "funny" key. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdmiralThunder Posted August 15 Author Share Posted August 15 (edited) Been playing WOWS since Dec 2016. Have 44,869 Co-op battles. This is only the 2nd time in all these years and games I have ever done this. Scored exactly 1000 BXP LOL. As a bonus the 1 game did both of todays Battlepass requirements so it's a one and done.

Captain Slattery Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 This may not look like much but I don't ever remember having a better maiden voyage. I was told she had good secondaries but didn't expect this. I didn't spec her as a secondary build. I just played it straight cruiser. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Slattery Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I just started on the Spanish cruiser line tonight. I think I'm getting the hang of it. 😁 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djc_499 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 A couple of excellent cruisers showing what they can do when the chips are down. Two rather different battles as in the Stalingrad battle it was a knife fight in a telephone booth filled with bees, while in the Prinz Engen it was slower developing allowing for some actual planning as opposed to simply responding. Both were fun... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djc_499 Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 An enjoyable morning on the Test Server. I so wish this battle actually "counted" as, outside of Tier I, I have never before gotten 8 kills and especially along with 80 planes shot down. Miss the time when I could reasonably play the Ohio in a "regular" Coop battle.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should post this on the 1000 bxp site. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath_of_Deadguy Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Seattle: the ship that makes me wonder why the %&*# I re-set this line again. The longest grind of the series, in the worst ship of the series. Even good games in her feel like a slog; this ship, the prospect of having to suffer through it any time I'm dumb enough to re-set the USN CLs, is the whole reason why I don't just expend all my blue boosters on Ops. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed she is the worst performer of my T9 US cruisers in any metric. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath_of_Deadguy Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Wider turrets means looser shell groupings. Fatter hull and superstructure means eating more pens from more angles. Worse firing arcs means exposing all guns is even more dangerous... and she doesn't even have any secondaries to contribute chip damage or fires. Cleveland is just the better bote, even without the heal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Efros Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) This game is here not because I got a huge score or oodles of damage but because I had a slight domestic emergency this morning that required my immediate attention and so I had to leave this game that I had just started with my DM heading towards a cap with no reds sighted as yet. When I returned to my PC the game was long over and the results screen was being displayed... which sort of shocked me. So 3 spots, a shared cap, 20 planes gave me 3rd place with a BXP of 523. I never fired a single main battery gun. HTH does that happen? It appears to be the spotting damage. which is the only remarkable thing about this game.

I recall a battle a few years ago in the Scharnhorst where I lost connections and was only able to reconnect several minutes later. Amazingly, the ship was still afloat and fetched up against an island far across the map and like you had a shared cap and many planes downed, but due to the secondaries had actually sunk two ships. So, in the words of Star Trek apparently most of the time I really am a Captain Dunsel... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slattery Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I got lucky with 5 enemies all trying to cap my cap. I've never gotten as many different ribbons in a tier 4 cruiser than I did in this one. Three kills by torps, one with secondaries and one with my main guns. It was frenetic to say the least. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Efros Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 After a horrible first game in Yamato this morning, 18k damage and that was all, due to a decision to turn left instead of right from spawn, I followed up with DM and Salem games that made up for it.

djc_499 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 This was a fairly intense battle that required lots of maneuvering, but fortunately the Wisconsin was fast enough to accomplish this while also avoiding Satsuma shells. I rather hoped the BXP would have been higher, but it was still a fun battle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
