  • The Christmas Dockyard event is out, leading to the utterly terrible HMS Marlborough which is a tier 9 battleship with guns that aren't even as good as those on the tier 5 USS New York. Halfway to this tier 9 turd, however, you can get the extremely nice tier 6 HMS Repulse.

    Actually, Jingles, their escorts were not sunk. Destroyers HMS Express, Electra, Tenedos, and HMAS Vampire, the four escorts, were not actually even attacked. It is why most of the crew of Repulse and the Prince of Wales survived, they were rescued by the destroyers. The Japanese on this occasion did not machine-gun the survivors in the water and deliberately withheld from attacking the destroyers while they were picking up survivors (an operation that left the ships practically stationary and an easy target).

Particularly because docking space large enough for the BBs was limited and also had to be used for other large vessels operating in the area like the CV task groups. Also getting them actually off the ground could be difficult.
      But yeah, at least it was possible and the Americans managed it remarkably well.
      Building new BBs would have taken far longer but at the time the Navy realized that the age of the BB was coming to a close and building many new ones wasn't worth it.

    The game and the community would have probably been a lot more history focused and also less arcade or gamey than it is…
    Idk, maybe not ?
    But it’s good to see some authentic ship added, fun to play and strong… without her actually be Russian bias or Weeb stuffs.

      I've only opened the basic containers and they have indeed been extremely disappointing. I think I've gotten 9 so far and all but one of them were crap flags and camo, as was the random super container I got today. Only good thing I've gotten from Santa was 200 doubloons. The anniversary containers were far better and to be honest I'd rather have more steel for my tier 10 snowflakes.
