So should I get it? I'm still new to BBs and would mainly use it to get silver in coop. Does it live up to the hype on the forums? Or should I save the coupon and hold out for something else?

Musashi is very, very good. Almost too good. You do have to be comfortable with a fairly static playstyle as she is not terribly maneuverable, and the turrets are downright recalcitrant. Those guns though. Nothing is immune, and nothing strikes fear in the hearts of other players like being the focus of Musashi's attention. I think she's well worth the coal.

You basically can't mess that ship up so long as your aim is somewhat decent. You have a tier 10's guns that you can use vs tier 7. She can cit any bb right through the bow, no matter what ship it is. Highest citadel damage in game currwntly, with some of the best accuracy and sigma values. She will hit anything and everything devastatingly hard.
Her torpedo damage reduction is tied with Yam for the top at something absurd like 51%. The only true vulnerability she really has is being put out of position, and Cv's multistriking her with mutiple squadrons at once, which are being nerfed into oblivion anyways next month.
She will earn good bank if you dont put her out of position, or miss too much.

Did I mention 26 or something km's range? You need good aim to hit something but dev strikes are easily obtainable with a bit of patience and some luck.
Drool......
I wish I could get her. I want her so bad, but I chose Kronk instead (A mistake on my part if I can't get Mush in time)
I still need 50,000 coal to get her so I will probably be SOL.

Well there she is, had to zoom out a little to get it all in the picture. I think one of my Japanese CV captains will be respecd for her when the big 0.8.0 hits. I'll keep the other one for the Hakuryu and he'll go to the Kaga when I want to unleash terror in the skies of tier 8. Don't see why I would need a Shokaku when Kaga is movin' on up to tier 8. I think I'm going to like her a lot! The despersion is pretty good and I can hit some long range targets pretty well. Looking foward to playing this ship more for sure!

Don't bother with AA at all on Musashi. She's awful and can't be made even passable. Focus on survivability stuff so you can apply all of your ridiculous 97,000 hitpoints.

Don't bother with AA at all on Musashi. She's awful and can't be made even passable. Focus on survivability stuff so you can apply all of your ridiculous 97,000 hitpoints. AA is going to be entirely changed at 0.8.0 so there is no need. Especially since the threat of massive alpha multistrikes from 6 or 7 squadrons of planes simultaneously is completely eliminated. Basically the single biggest threat to this ship and her only real flaw has been removed from the game. Torps only hit her bulge for 49% of their listed damage, so she can tank single squadron triple drops for days with 97,000 health haha its actually pretty hilarious. You'd have to hit her ~10-15 times with torpedos to kill her, assuming the captain made no attempt to maneuver. The current threat posed by CV's in high tier games is their ability to multistrike for a BB's full health with practically undodgeable drops. Goodbye multistrike!

It seems to be a magnet for AI planes in coop so I'm getting plenty of practice and dodging qite a few torps as long as I stay aware. Even shooting sown a few planes too! Definitely having fun with it!
