>Cruisers

Why do they still exist? Why do people still play them?

xth for the cutest /Wowsg/

Scharnhorst a cute! A cute!

It's funny because the previous OP had something related to the game, however this one is nothing but spam.

It's not a detonation, if that's what you're implying.

>Why do people still play them?
They don't?

I'm implying that even a sentient potato can delete a cruiser.

>can't be citadelled
>take 15k regular penetrations all the time
Turtelback armour my ass. Should've kept bow oning in Iowa

Whoever at WG that keeps thinking its a fun thing to make CV based weekend specials needs to be taken out behind the chemical shed and "relieved of duty"

>have detonation flag mounted

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK IS THIS BULLSHIT

Why would you lie on the internet, user?

What were you driving? Akizuki?

nagato

VI - Junyo
VII - Unryu (not a conversion tho)
VIII - Akagi
IX - Kaga
X - Shinano (hypothetical refit?)

So now that I have a fleet of Kongos and Myokos, how do I spec them?

>Shinano was built on a Yamato hull
Have fun seeing her across the map.

You don't. You only keep them as port sluts.

Wont be any worse than USN CV.

"user, what're you doing?"
"I'm burning baBBies"
"It's four in the morning, why on earth are you burning baBBies at four in the morning?"
"Because I've lost control of my life"

>ywn have a personal harem of botesluts with their sterns always wet and ready

At least it's not an "Izumo" kind of hull ))))))))))))))))))))

wew lad

Your choice of megamilk, flight deck or breeding hips. I recommend breeding hips, with a few points in legs to round it out.

>Shinano had no planes because Japan ran out due to throwing them in ships
How did they ever think this was a good idea? I mean, originally they were going to beach Yamato and use her as a block. Dumb Japs.

...

>EU Takao mission requires t8 ships now
It seems that whining is the best option to get what you want.

Can't sink a beached Hotel.
Literally an unsinkable ship.

No points in feet?

Wasn't this thing rushed and had -the- worst damage control and leaks?

Well, if that's your fetish then Takao does have some pretty good legs and feet.

>feet

user you're disgusting

>posting kancer in the strike witches thread

sad, just sad

>in the strike witches thread
Whut?

Old and busted pop,

>Strike Witches

...

Well, it just makes sense that you need t8 ships to get a free t8 ship.

They did this because the main goal was to stop the US from landing in Japan.
They still had more than 20k planes in reserve specifically to to throw them against the landing forces, in a way the planes they expended around Okinawa were just the first wave.

And the reason they threw Yamato into the fray like that was because the IJN simply ran out of fuel, and it was either that or let the ship sit at anchor like Nagato.

How long until secondary build is no longer viable?

How is this even possible?

>They still had more than 20k planes in reserve specifically to to throw them against the landing forces

Everything I've read has led me to believe that Imperial Japan suffered chronic plane shortages, to the point where most of their main carrier air wings were underplaned and their second-line carriers took whatever they could scrounge. Heck, in '42 they produced less than 100 planes, total. If they actually had 20,000 planes in reserve then they wouldn't have used the last of their carriers as a fucking decoy at Leyte.

Imperial Japan lost:
Most of their carriers at Midway (taking their highly-trained pre-war fighter pilots with them)
Most of their highly-trained pre-war crew in the Guadalcanal meatgrinder
Most of their planes in the Marianas Turkey Shoot
Most of their logistics and a lot of their warships to submarines

They never recovered from any of these

NO
IMPERIUL JAPPAN STRONG

FILTHY GAIJIN KYAAAAA

Japanese planes weren't even a threat by late war.
The were outperformed by superior US plons in every single aspect >inb4 turning circle, as if it mattered and US AA was too good.
The only way to make them somehow useful was to turn them into guided missiles.

Why are foot fetishits so pathetic?

But WT teached me turning circles is all that matters and energy fighters are garbage

n-no...

>If they actually had 20,000 planes in reserve then they wouldn't have used the last of their carriers as a fucking decoy at Leyte.
They didn't lack planes, what they lack is pilots.

They weren't playing in arcade mode though

>If they actually had 20,000 planes in reserve then they wouldn't have used the last of their carriers as a fucking decoy at Leyte.
These were ALL types of planes.

As in, biplanes trainers from the 30s, all kinds of observation and utility planes that were unfit for carrier service, that kind of thing. This was bottom-of-the-barrel last ditch reserves before they got to sending civilian 'militias' with sharpened bamboo sticks into machinegun fire.

Also
they lacked pilots to even fly one-way missions to okinawa with the modern planes they had left.
They were however training pilots to use the slow and shitty biplanes etc.for use againt the landing forces close to their own shores.


In a way, the kamikaze attacks they actually did were more of a test run. They tried this in the hope that it would kill a few of teh US carriers, which mostly failed.
So they modified the plans, and went for smaller ships, which actually improved the success rate a bit.
So the next step would've been to go for the transports near the landing beaches while using mountains to hide from the radar and to reduce the raction times of the CAP, or to simply swamp the CAP by sending .Ohka strikes against the warships further out to sea while at the same time using the old and slow planes against the transports closer to the landing beaches.


I can't tell you if that would have worked, but their decision wasn't lol let's fly planes into ships xD', they just did some strategic calculations and decided that crew survival was not important.
The Soviets did pretty much the same with their tank tactics 1944, and their infantry tactics in 1942. It did not really work in '42 for them, but started workign in '44 because the Germans ran out of tanks.

>Akagi matched against Lexi and Shokaku
>Kaga matched against Essex and Taiho

WG will have to pull some serious shit out of its ass to make the Akagi and Kaga competitive at those tiers.

AKAGI-SAN

>mfw /wowsg/ believes CBTfags and playing on two regions since OBT is the same as being a reroll

...

Rest of the RN tree when?

it's not like any other nation could manage a full tree even it it's more paper than the soviet one we have now.

>bongish carriers
>easy to spot
>impossible to sink

1) German destroyers
2) Russian battleships
3) a year hiatus
4) frog cruisers
5) useless Bong ships

Rodney is mai waifu.

Is there even a botegirl of her?

There is a Chinese kanole boatgirl of her.

In chinkolle

Thanks friends. She's perfect.

And you're probably not even wrong. Don't forget Spaghetti BBs after frog cruisers, and an actual polish and pan asia tree too.

>Why do people still play them?
Because
>not as absurdly slow as BBs
>don't have as pencil dick guns as most DDs

Don't get me wrong, the tinfoil citadels still make it every bit as miserable as you would expect.

Australian posters have immunity against those flags.

Why is LunaticInbred so bad?

Being in ST should also count as a re-roll, since you literally have an entire super sekrit test server to play a billion games on, without the public ever seeing your stats there.

So i got Perth and it's probably the most OP bote ever released.
Get it while you can guys, really really worth it.

It's not. Just a worse(lol) Leander.

reee

we need the burgers to save us all
again

if they make a tier 7 richelieu id buy that shit in a heartbeat

I'd buy Richelieu no matter where they put it desu.

it would probably get shit on by tier 9's and 10's dont say that

I just want my frogbote man

i have been playing german battleships and i like them a lot but now i feel like playing IJN BB's. are they fun to go down and play or should i just stick to grinding KM?

KM is probably more fun
but after the T3 and 4 the Japs are pretty fun too

So does anyone have all the raptor webums I want to improve my play and it could really help me

They're both fantastic lines.

Highlights of the German BBs are the Gnei and the Bismarck, both fucking amazing BBs that are great for brawling. Fred and GK are both excellent high tiers because you just don't get citadelled.

For IJN Kongou through Amagi are all amazing botes, Fusou might just be the best T6 BB and P A G O D A S are aesthetic as shit. Izumo is not great but it's been buffed alot and really isn't as bad as it used to be. Yamato is Yamato and is a great T10.

I'd say grinding German BBs might be more fun, but grinding IJN will make you a better BB player.

They're both good, just play whichever sexually excites you more
