oh hell yeah dude

it's the first blatantly p2w thing I've seen in the game, since I joined after premium rounds became available to buy with silver.

AMX M4 49 was pretty bad, but at least it wasn't fucking invincible like the Defender.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

That's what you get when WG decides they need a massive alpha tank designed for peek-a-boom in almost every way possible.

You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

They're these things.

Super ineffective IRL, but maybe they'll be added as part of RN BB national flavour.

I think they'd be pretty cool. Although, there'll be lots of whining if they are included.

Not that I'll be buying it either way.

Hood has old fashioned armor layout. Meaning she'll be stupidly effective. Because WoWS says fuck you to the more modern armor layouts.

Because WoWS is at the ranges that old armour layouts were meant to work at, modern layouts were meant for longer ranges.

WoWS issue is much more that they use historical data for armour schemes and gun penetration, but with ahistorically compressed ranges.

6.3 is going to be a shitshow. The blanket change their making is way too heavy handed for what was just a couple of ships capable of abusing stealthfire to a really dangerous level. Other ships who could pull it off could only do it if you're sitting still essentially, which is what high tier BBs do a lot, so the problem falls back onto the static nature of most BBs in high tiers.

Yeah. I don't really know how you'll fix BBs being static though unless you make CVs or IJN DD torpedoes viable again.

The only time I've even stealthfire killed a BB with my Fletcher using guns was a Yamato, sitting still, bow on, just taking shell after shell from me, bitching about stealthfire the whole time. And the best part was I was just within detection range after firing but behind an island. Just goes to show if you fail enough, even you can get your own Yamato.

I once gunned down a New York from stealth with my Blsy. I'll miss the stealthfiring on that thing because it's so fun.
