The HSF ships are in the NA premium shop. The HSF Graf Spee (T6) is just a reskin of the existing Graf Spee, but with special camo and an anime captain. The HSF Harekaze (T8) is kind of an interesting DD with 3 different hulls for different play styles. Both apparently can use other captains, but it appears only if you take the HSF prem camo off of it - not sure what that's about. Link |

I definitely want the Harekaze. I'm just wondering if the anime voices will be the final straw that causes my sanity to flee screaming into the night.....

I have to admit: I'm not much of a DD guy, but the Harekaze looks really neat. You *can* swap the anime captain out of it, but apparently you can't use the anime prem camo when you have another captain on it - at least that's what I gather from this part:
Anime Optional The anime look of both vessels comes from permanent camo included. Remove the camo and assign another commander of the ship’s nation for a less anime-flavored experience.

Yeah, but I really don't have that many skilled IJN captains. And I wouldn't mind a female Japanese captain as long as the voice doesn't make me want to either A) smother the speaker with a pillow or B) suck-start a 12 gauge.....

I know I couldn't handle the anime voices that were in the Valkyria tanks that QB previewed.

That’s exactly what I’m concerned about. What’s “cute” at first can quickly become annoying, and even migraine-triggering, over a longer period of time…

I can understand that. Even the Pirate language got old to me.

Now, if they went with a sultry female voice.......

I could go for that. Or...simply the voice of Clarkson.
Hitting the Speed Boost Mod 1 results in "Powweeeeerrrr!"

Yeah... I'm probably gonna pass, I'll just buy the regular Spee whenever it's available. Though I do want the cat captain, hopefully he is available soon. Bet he goes ~murr~ exactly the same way for everything...

So, initial impression of the HairyKoozie is favorable but probably not the best DD for Coop as the bots have an amazing ability to know that you launched torps 10km away....
