Ok the Genova is a trash ship, the 20 second reload is AWFUL WHAT IS THIS THING

I got that when the italian cruisers came out... I don't care for it either.  It's good for snowflakes!

I only missed Spain in QF, however I dont have all the prizes awarded yet for some reason, guess they ll come later I should have the T5 prem crate today...

So far only for me misses were SWI-ITA and SPA-GER

It's possible you missed the first game or two... if you didn't pick, you won't advance up the line... worse than a loss because you don't even get the consolation credits!

Re-check and make sure you had a selection on every game.

Otherwise, hopefully the missing wins will correct in time. 🙂 Good luck!

Fun little ship she is strong brawler with those secondary's and 15 guns do you like her? I start every session with the Agincourt first I love that ship!

Awesome ship, she is a lot of fun to play, those secondaries at Tier 5 are amazing, i just wish she would be a little bit faster, but that's a problem most Tier V BBs have.

Only was wrong on two of the guesses so far. So I've netted a T5 premium crate, and the contents were a Yahagi. So I'm fairly content at this point. Any additional correct guesses and I lower the santa crate pool a little more.

Decided on Spain for the first match, but i find it difficult to decide who to pick for the second match. The Netherlands had a hard time against Turkey in their last match, i expected them to dominate that match, that doesn't fill me with confidence and England hasn't played great at all so far. It will most likely end with another penalty shoot-out and then England may have an advantage.

The 15th item?  I believe its a coupon for 100% discount on any ship available for Coal or Doubloons.

PSA:  You can claim your rewards only until the end of July 21. After that date, the event page will no longer be available.

Well, Tuesday is the first of the Semi-Final games and the semifinal odds are in:

Euro 2024 Title Odds

Spain: +190

England: +250

France: +275

Netherlands: +400

Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.

Pretty much the same as at the start of the tournament:  Spain is generally considered the strongest team from what I've read and England had the better draw to make the finals.

Odds say:

Spain over France & England over Netherlands.   MUCH debate over these close games!

The money line says the same:

Spain over France  &  England over Netherlands.  The win in Regulation line is higher than the draw line but we'll see!

Good luck to all whatever you choose!

  Well, I am at 10 pts just by picking the favorites, not changing course now.

I am not sure who to pick either. Spain are playing the best football of all the teams, but Carvajal, Le Normand (cards) and Pedri (injury) cannot play in the semifinals, while France have all their players available.

The second match - England have not shown much in this tournament (a lucky extra-time win against Slovakia and a penalty shootout against Switzerland). The Dutch - I expected them to dominate the Turks in the quarter-finals, but the comeback showed some courage and ingenuity from the coach, so a tough call too.

At this point if I get any wins I'm getting a ship reward crate. 

I hate soccer. Never watch it. Made random choices lol.

As usual, it looked terrible at the start with France up 1-0... but it was shortly (in 'football' terms) turned around to Spain up by 2-1 including a French own goal... so many of those this tournament!  I didn't know that was such a 'thing'.

11/13 on the Spain win still following the money lines.

Tomorrow, hoping for England, but we'll see.  Get your pick in if you haven't!  Thanks @thornzero for the reminder on today's match!

I think I'm up to the Tier 6 ship lootbox! 🙂

I read the UEFA credited it to the Spanish player, given the ball was going in anyway.

With the win by Spain, I will get a T5 crate. The only T5 I don't have is Texas so I should be getting that when the game updates the beautiful game. I have all the T6 and T7's so I can only get credits for those containers if my picks win.

You may want to hold on to those crates until WG adds more premiums at those tiers.

Will do, it would be compensation right now.  I hope someone gets to the tier 9 lootbox, it would be cool if the Johnston was actually available there 🙂 

I think Turkey messed that up for most folks 🙂

It may be delayed due to the update dropping today. Give it some extra time.

T6 for the win. Another cruiser which I am not too excited about but I am probably pulling them because I don't have too many. This is a nice one though compared to the T5. Good luck to the rest of you.

Actually you just semi lucked out because that gets you the next dockyard T9 for free basically. Anyone who already has a Leipzig gets 2 dockyard segments for free once they reach that portion of the dockyard. Its actually stated as such in one of the recent WG blog posts.
