    Agree on the Napoli. Some games are a blast. Open up with the secondaries and tear things up. Most games though your running from BBs and struggling to kill light cruisers.

    Salut DFA, Alors ce bâteau, quand je l'ai vu dans le chantier naval en début d'année, je me suis dit : Hum hum, un nouveau tiers 10 premium que je vais pouvoir débloquer, trop cool. Les premières batailles ont été assez cool. Puis, j'ai eu un enchaînement de batailles non motivantes (porte avion, matchmaking original dirons nous...). Quand on peut s'approcher d'un destroyer, d'un croiseur, voir de certains cuirassés...le combo gros canons, secondaires, torpilles, fumée, est juste extraordinaire. Mais, effectivement, il faut la bonne occasion et le bon positionnement sur la carte. Le plus gros problème étant finalement, encore et toujours, les portes avions. Il fait partie des navires lourdement handicapés par ce type de batailles, ultra fréquentes en tiers 10. En croiseur lourd premium de tiers 10, j'en ai quelques uns, je pense que le plus fiable en bataille est le Puerto Rico. Au final, je suis, bizarrement, très content de l'avoir. Car même, si c'est compliqué par moment de le jouer, quand ça marche c'est super fun. Et pour la mission hebdomadaire de 300 coups de secondaires, j'ai plus de motivation à le sortir que le Kurfurst (en même temps les honneurs de batailles sont terminés) ou le Preussen (débloquer dans la caisse de l'euro de foot à 5000 or 😇 toujours 0 batailles depuis). Et puis bon, je suis un peu collectionneur sur les bords dans le jeu (il faudrait que je prenne le temps de calculer, j'ai du largement dépasser les 200 navires premium...du coup il y en a plein qui ont juste 10 batailles 😂 voir 0😮). Pour le Colbert, je partage...toujours pas débloqué... Bon week-end à toi et la famille.

    Napoli - I got her from a crate and I bought the HC for her while she's fun to play, she does have a learning curve. A piece of advice from a cruiser captain: Play her like a pirate ship; she's fast and powerful enough to go against ships weaker/equal to her, but against any situation where she's overmatched she's at a disadvantage thus stay away. Like a corsair/ pirate ship learn how to pick your battles and to attack solo ships or ships that are badly damaged. Otherwise stay away from the main action and only push when the battle is in your favor or to break enemy charges.

    Hello, yes the beginning of the battle proves the point.. our DD decides to take a day off and there was nothing to spot for me. With shimas in front and no sonar, might as well go back to port right away... As you said, if your team takes a day off, there's nothing you can do. Need a DD to spot, a CV/cruiser to flak, a BB to fall back to,... And an open map where teams don't camp. It does happen 🙂

    Awesome as always DFA - however I think you are being a tad harsh. WOWS Blitz has a serious issue with auto secondaries being able to hit even a small continent if they are sailing right towards you or kiting away. "IF" WG decide to fix this then I think the Napoli may have a chance at being just below average instead of being garbage :). You have to bite the bullet in Napoli and try to engage their flank IMO.

    I really think Nebraska is playable but really inconsistent, I play it solo and have a solid 55% wr with 100 games on it. Like DFA said, it's main problem is the consistency. Sometimes you can outvalue an Atlantico in a battle, dominating with 100k, full spots with map control and sometimes you fold against a AP cruiser because the salvo went to the moon. Most of my Nebraska games ends with a 6-1 or 1-6 😂

    "The Black North Carolina is amazing", yes I'm agree. 😂 Coucou DFA, Oui, je l'avoue, j'ai adoré jouer le North Carolina (honneur de batailles achevé depuis très longtemps) et j'ai fini par acheter dans un chantier naval la version noire. Une des raisons est que le commandant niveau 12, de mon Montana (avec 1 rechargement rapide additionnel), lui va comme un gant sans coût de réentrainement. Par rapport au standard, on a également plus de portée sur les canons principaux et secondaires, et deux petits sonars qui peuvent surprendre. Je vais être honnête, ce bateau n'a rien d'exceptionnel, comme le classique, niveau précision qui est très très aléatoire. Et du coup, ça, cumulé avec par contre une AA correcte et résistance au feu et inondation bonne, et bien j'adore. 😂 Avec ce bateau, quand on est expérimenté, on peut réellement faire de grosses parties, même contre du Roma, Bismarck, ce qui est toujours extra amusant. Bon bien entendu, il faut savoir jouer sur les distances d'engagement, le profil qu'on présente, la vitesse, tout un tas de truc qui complique la vie de l'adversaire et qui amplifie la joie de le jouer car c'est pas simple. 😊 Oui, j'essaie de noter du factuel. 😂 Après, je suis d'accord l'Alabama est quand même meilleur. Pour le Black Monarch j'adore aussi. 😂 J'ai également le Monarch classic, les 2 avec camouflage historique. Honnêtement, je pense que la version noire, avec uniquement RR1 (mais on a en 3 de base) est meilleur que le Monarch avec ses 2 RR2. Le nuage de fumée sur le principe ne sert à rien, mais en fait si...surtout vue le nombre de joueurs qui ne savent pas viser dans un nuage de fumée. Il faudrait que je regarde mes stats, mais de mémoires, c'est meilleur sur la version noire, sachant que je joue 100% solo (flotte SOLOO si ça te parle 😂). Après, c'est comme tout, on a tous des opinions différentes et heureusement. 😊

    Only surprise in this tiermaker so far is _Cheshire_ - I’d put it in niche or playable, personally. (Disclaimer: I don’t own _Belfast ‘43_ yet) It’s got better base stats than _Albemarle_ in almost every category, the AA is pretty good at T8, the guns pack a punch (I tend to use HE more than AP, but both work), and it’s a great captain trainer for the _Goliath_ line.

    Chappy is awesome, good manoeuvrability and good rate of fire, the radar can be a nasty surprise to some DD players as for some reason I keep getting DDs smoking up and trying to yolo me… 😂 But Donskoi is rough. Still struggling to make it work. Cross of Dorn is a good ship, good to see it ranked up there - the AP boost skill differentiates it from Odin nicely and makes it more of a medium range ship. Add Lütjens with heavy AP ammo, APCS and citadel strike + and it can catch a lot of BBs pants down with how hard it hits with those 308s. Because it works a bit better at range than Odin, I think it’s probably suffered a bit less from the Atlantico, as you can stay out of its secondary range and hammer it with AP in the CoD better than the Odin to whittle down its health and then go in for the kill. It does suffer a bit from not having sonar, when pushing you have to pay a lot of attention to the mini map and anticipate where DDs will typically ambush you.
