First two games decent enough to share. First was the final game of the Belle grind -- which, I should note, I hated. Armor is pointless, guns are derpy as fuck, handles so bad. BUT ... this game, while a bit of a heartbreaker, was the first time I really "got" BBs. I've been much better in them ever since, as I'm starting to understand positioning and aiming. It was me vs. four ships -- a DD, cruiser, and two BBs. I managed to cit the cruiser back to port, and took out the DD with my secondaries. If I had ran the 5% faster reload signal, instead of being dumb , I would have been able to heal and repair the fire I had going and take out the very, very low health S.C. The final BB was AFK, I think, as he had yet to be spotted. But...didn't happen. Still, nearly 80K is my most damage ever, and not shabby for a tier III, I think. The next was my first true "carry." The reds had all three caps, were up two ships, and held a 400+ point lead. I typed "We need a cap" into chat and pushed into A, where I knew there was a DD and a cruiser. Teammates helped take them out but died in the process, so I solo cap A. Move to B and solo cap it whilst our Wyoming put in work taking out two other ships before going down. That left a BB, two CVs, and a DD (who was ... somewhere). Our Orion was comically out of position, so when I spotted their BB, I ask the CV to do some work. He drops torps and gets a hit, so the BB uses his repair and DCP. I get into range, pop smoke, and proceed to absolutely wail on him. Just melted and burned him to the waterline. I then spend the next three minutes chasing two CVs who were: a.) out of planes; b.) some ninja-ass, torp-dodging motherfuckers. Honestly. The Langley must have avoided about 20 at least. Also funny: I also had accidentally hit the AP key rather than the HE key when switching out of torps the first time, which I noticed about halfway through my fight with the Langley after I noticed I was over-penning. Otherwise, it would have taken about half the time. I r smert. But all's well that ends well, I guess. (Also: I USN DDs.)

Damn nice games, Formula! Finally got my first Kraken. I think I see why they call this thing the Clubson.

Wish I had known how to save screenshot on my first Kraken game. Congrats!
Now you gotta earn a Solo Warrior.

The game was terrible on my part -- just 19K damage in my Orion -- but I did just enough to survive against four BBs and win on points. I'll post the screenshot later this evening.

1st game in the Tier III PA DD Phra Ruang.... I think I'm going to like this line... It appears the T4 PA DD might unseat the Clemson as the best T4 seal clubber. Let me know how you like it, haven't started the line yet.

Let me know how you like it, haven't started the line yet. Yeah, the Tier 4 Shenyang is a dangerous little bugger. Much better torps (against BB, CA/CL, CV) and good guns. I prefer the Clemson but that's because I like the handling of the US DDs, but Shenyang is second best in the Tier 4 DDs for me by far. That said, The Tier VII is a monster. If you see one on the OpFor, kill it immediately! 2nd game stock gave me this: The guns are great and the DW torps are evil against BBs. Even the Bots have a hard time dodging them.

Based on the recommendation of FormulaZR, I decided to use some doubloons to grab the Alabama. I'm still not a true BB player but, even as an Auburn man, I'll admit 'Bama ain't bad: Even on a loss (weekend teams for the win loss), she makes good cash: I'm running a 7-point captain so I'm curious to see what she can do with a full build.
