dukeker has cruiser armor, beware

scharnhost has cruiser weapons, beware

bong CA will be CL, REJOICE!

I just bought dunkek

I dont care what she has, she's CUTE

her gun's honestly arern't as bad as I thought they would be. decently accurate. to bad 13mm is a meme caliber and can't do shit.

discord.gg/FhvrzjR

/wowsg/ general Discord

Warspite is so elephant!

actualy shes okay when played like a cruiser

same with scharnhost. except most German BBs have excellent armor and can't get penned.

and then there's the
>overpen on citadels
mechanic that maybe dukekerer might abuse

Is this where shitposting belongs now?

did any /wowsg/ get Warspite in the game that shall not be named?

>overpen on citadels mechanic
A boogeyman made up by butthurt baBBies who are mad their ships aren't click2win.

>100mm dp guns on kekker
>127mm dp on most burger boats
>the utterly accurate and stabilized 128mm on german BBs
>they all have ranges under 7km and accuracy that would make them miss a battleship on the 5km mark
think about this for a minute

I still need more games in her, but she's very finicky. I feel like her damage output is a bit lacking. Scharn can mitigate her weaknesses by getting up close, but Dunk really can't.

The ship is agile enough to juke BB shots if you're aware enough, but what is killing me is how fragile she is to cruiser guns and how flammable she is. She has a lot of superstructure and a lot of deck space. HE will hit and do damage almost all the time, AP salvoes will do 4-digit damage. Tier 8 games will see you being eaten up by Hippers and Atagos.

With the memedal, yes.

honestly tho I see alote of BBs doing overpen damage that's absurdly high for overpen

the only conclusion I could take is that they did overpen on the citadel hitbox

but you can't OHKO them with ap?

are you using rudder shift time or damage control?

the way you speak of it makes it sounds a lot like a regular cruiser play. how agile it is compared to atagoy?

>56% wr
Has Luger hit his skill plateau?

Yea pretty much.

Breddy gud bode :DDD

Decent mobility, decent accuracy, good penetration, sexually arousing quadruple turrets, barbette 2 has motivational words. Nice bote.

What?

also this is some ebin exp

Anyone got the stats for the Dunkerque?

Also how does it perform and as i am a poor EU player who gets things last when will the EU get it?

do you yuropoors not have access to the WG wiki?

I have yet to get citpenned, I think.

I am using rudder shift time, as I do in all my BBs and CAs.

I don't have an Atago, so I can't compare. But her rudder shift is like Scharn's, and her turning radius is better than Scharn's. The numbers don't really compare to cruiser numbers, but the combination of speed, fast (for BB) rudder, and decent turning radius makes her feel pretty easy to handle.

You can't play her like a cruiser, though. Her guns are surprisingly punchy at times, and she doesn't have the ROF to really allow for for cruiser (or uptiered Scharn)-like play.

Haven't quite figured out how to use her yet, quite honestly.

Normally the WG wiki is utter shite and is missing half the stats desu. I do not waste my time on it.

With EM, Aim Systems Mod 1, and the rudder shift time mod.

It really is to bad dunkek is so mediocre. they clearly spent a fuckload of time modeling her. the shiny bits on her barrel tips are beutiful

Spot the shitter

>Roger Jackin' It

:^)

Thanks.

I got Warspite and Scharn so finding a problem on trying to pick this one up.

Even Bayern is better than Warspite and they have the big guns so they may just demolish Dunk.

post ur stats kid

WHY THE FUCK IS THE NATIONAL FLAGS ALL FUCKED UP IN THE MOD PACK!?!?

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

RUSSIAN SHITTER NAVY FLAG DOESNT BELONG ON ARIZONA AND NEITHER DOES TAIWAN FLAG ON IOWA

Nth for Dunk is not a meme.

Infinityth for Supertesters and Community Contributors are Godlike beings; the only humans that have risen to holy perfection for perfectly being completely wrong with any opinions they give.

Nth for the continued failure of supertesters so we get more ships this solid and this cheap.

I just citpenned a somewhat angled New Mexico from 15km with guns smaller than Kongo's

She's a gud, capable bote.

...

What range are you playing her at?

Her guns are remarkably punchy. It was a nice surprise.

>Supertesters not knowing shit.

The sky is blue and water is wet.

Would you say you have to be an above average player to be good in her?

Cit hit an angled NM, not bad must have some good AP pen then.

She's got weak armor, but she's zippy, decently accurate, and has a good punch. I'd say she's not idiot proof, but if you're a remotely decent player you should have a good time with her.

Her armor isn't so awful that something can simply look at you and you burst into treats, but certainly if you show too much side like some French whore, she's gonna have a bad time. As long as you stay properly angled against incoming fire, which should be easy since your entire main battery is forward, she's plenty enough durable. Still, you dont want to just point you bow at the enemy and creep towards them. She's not that durable. It's better to stay mobile like a cruiser in that regard.

>Tashkent
>great mobility
???

How long do you have to wait in queue in with the Dun-KEK anyway?

With everyone grinding away at the German BBs it certainly isn't instant.

Speed also counts as mobility??

>Tashkent
>bad mobility
u r bad

Pretty much instaqueue. The German BB hype is dying down a bit, and tier 6 always has a healthy player population.

Even VMF DDs can't outrun planes, you meme loving fuck.

>tfw you fall asleep at the wheel and a random torpedo hits your destroyer at the start of the match so you just let your ship flood out of shame

Its time to end it

But some can outrun plane torpedoes ))))))

>plane torpedoes
>some 800WTR faggot in a Lexington routes 3 squads of DBs to you

>Scharnhorst closing with enemy New Mex

He had the fucking good goy flag and all.

I saw one do that last night. He had a good amount of HP too, and just blew it all on le ebin ram XDDD

>Scientists set to explore sunken WWII-era aircraft carrier
foxnews.com/science/2016/08/22/deep-dive-scientists-set-to-explore-sunken-wwii-era-aircraft-carrier.html

They are gonna live stream the whole thing too! Anyone else hype to get up close and personal with this boat?

>Gee which CV is that, it looks like an Independence class
>Is Independence

heh

Which one is this one? An independence class?

>the 622-foot-long carrier was subject to nuclear blasts at Bikini Atoll
>Operation Crossroads
Uh, what about the radiation?

Oh, shit better warn those people living in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

You don't get fallout at all if you explode a nuke in the ocean user

What's the deal with this muzzle attachment? It's on all the M2s in the game.

That's not an M2 you fucking ape

theguardian.com/world/2014/mar/02/bikini-atoll-nuclear-test-60-years

sciencenews.org/article/bikini-atoll-radiation-levels-remain-alarmingly-high

Also, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were each bombed once.

M2 mod.2 is what it's called in game.

IIRC, an attachment for the water cooling system.

well it quite clearly a lewis or vikers gun model. it must be a typo with the latest update

what ship?

Benson

It's a watercooling attachment for Navy M2s

>Wargaming in charge of making models
They have the model of a vickers instead of a 50.cal

>it must be a typo

No, it's just an M2 Browning with water cooling.

More pictures here:

navweaps.com/Weapons/WNUS_50cal-M2_MG.php

The ones in the pictures don't have the handle, but watercooled M2s were a thing.

Definitely a browning with a watercooling barrel

Why does Warspites 152mm secondaries do higher damage and has a higher chance of fire than the 150mm secondaries on German BB's?

I stand corrected. This was my post and I though it was this with an incorrect name/ model

Because they don't fire AP.

Ugly as sin though, jesus.

Can't argue functionality over aesthetics can we ;)

;^)

Reminder that this is what we could have had instead of the perma-snarl Chihuahuas

Damn bruh alpha worgens were the best. But this isn't wowg retard.

agreed dunkek and the enite german line is garbo

yiff in hell furfag

>weekend 200% win bonus

JUST.

Fuck, I Ctrl-F'd "Wow and just clicked the first thing that popped up. Sorry folks

You're one of those people who only read a thread to see how many (You)s you get arent (You)?

Well here's (You)r (You)s. Take them (You) whore.

Wait a minute this isn't a boat.

>Ship magazine is in the front
>get hit on the back by HE
>"DETONATION"
What a fun mechanic

She really is such a pretty bote.

All-front BBs are curvacious and attractive

agreed

>male bow
>flat as fuck
>superstructure straight from uncanny valley
>interanl arrangement is as queer as only teh RN can make it
Yeah, no that ship is gay as fuck.

I think the superstructure is Britiish as hell. It just screams British and reminds me of Big Ben

Hello sailor

nah. go back to meme school my kid

holy shit, BB's have been teased?

Disregard, excitement got the better of me

;_;

>Izumo

>can't set fire to ships when they've blown DCP and its on CD episode

RNG never fails to make things absolutely hitler

>putting rangefinders on rangefinders
>on rangefinders
For what purpose?

Nah, it's not bulky enough. Makes me think pagoda more than anything.

I want off of this fucking shitty ride.

>set two fires with one salvo
>they immediately expire because someone else had set his bow on fire and it was almost out
>immediately set another 2 fires and he repairs them
>Then no fires ever again

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>i ran out of premium today
grinding these krautbbs will now, truly take forever

Backup? these turrets were designed in such a way they should work if two guns are knocked out. WG doesn't model it though because russian codes ))))))

Dispersion looks quite big and are you just ment to go forward since trying to WSAD while running away is kinda hard since you have to angle quite hard to shoot back.

What would you consider the quintessential ship for each Nation?
Not nesesairaly the best ship in the tree, but the one that captures the spirit of it more than any other

Nip: Yamato. Big guns, big range, big damage

Clap: Cleveland or Baltimore. High gun arcs, decent HE and AAA stacked on AAA

KM: hard to say because the CAs and the BBs are so different but I would have to say the Hipper with its fantastic AP, which remains on both the CAs and BBs

Bong: Warspite. I don't say that because it's basically the only original ship in the RN, but because I believe that it will be a template for the RN. Great maneuverability and decent, accurate guns
