Howdy SWCC SBCS here... Finally a French cruiser with decent turret traverse and good rudder shift...I run 16/4 Lemonnier Beyond Range, Igniter, Velocius, Steer Clear, Refill Station w/16/4 Von Muller & 16/3 AL Baltimore as Inspirations 0n All my French Cruisers. And run the exact same build on Sansonetti for the Italian's. Both lines have suffered horribly for not having a Hybrid Commander unlike all the others...
Hi SWCC, How is beautiful sunny Moldova treating you? Thank you for your service. I have seen you play and you are a beast, wish I could reach the 41% WinRate you have!
@@Vlad7six0 Hey! I'm actually back home in Texas. Got back last week. I'm assuming that was a Joke I have a 59% winrate 😆... Of course that's nothing to brag about I know people that above a 70%...
I know Plymouth is pretty impressive, but the Bayard looks real fun for an open water Cruiser - to have 3 consumables on the Bayard is what I think will make it competitive. Awesome takedown on the Le Fantasque, it got shredded.. LiquidDigital PS5
Thanks for the inside and impression of the Bayard. I am playing Cruisers most of the time, this looks like a good addition to the game. How does it compares to the Mainz? Seems close in performance. RazQ on PS5
op mess for sure, one sat broadside to my richelieu and was able to farm my hp while none of my shells could penetrate at 12km, i really wish they would focus on improving the current state of the game instead of adding op ship after op ship
I used to play battleship all the time but got bored and started playing cruisers. Playing cruisers really makes the game more enjoyable. Smacking destroyers is just so much fun! Sh0oT em UPS Xbox The first o is a zero
For anyone watching in 2025, because the Bayard is on sale for 7k dubloons... You are going to want to shoot HE more than AP. She has improved pen with HE, which means she pens 30mm of armor. That's really consistent damage plus the fire setting chance. Build her for range and rudder and you'll be able to juke shot and burn down the world
I think it's definitely a fun shop to play. Great play Tbull! BTW, what is your opinion on having a kill cam when you explode? Seeing how you got killed can be a great learning opportunity imo. ListenToMe89 Xbox series X
Funny enough they release one OP cruiser after the other but when it comes to dd they prefer to nerf them below average just to be sure. Cruiser bias for sure.

17.5K Doubloons is no joke... but from what I've seen of this one, if you have even a basic understanding of hi-level cruiser play, this one would ALMOST be worth it if you happen to have some spare cash burning a hole in your pocket, lol KnighthawkS86 Xbox

@@Anglo_Saxon they play so differently, so can’t really compare to each other. Those 15 barrels shred everything from DD to BB on Plymouth and Bayard is fast, so I use it to run down CV but it also holds it own ( peek got 750k with it) and the reload booster can Finish off a ship quick. Even with a DD CDR to get ship locate, with many abilities not able to use on CC, still holds own. Even with lower HP, I don’t really notice it. Like Weimar, that every said sell, still got game. I honestly think u can’t go wrong with either , probably down to which nation you wanna go with or need a premium for more or which one you have a high CDR for. Either one is a hoot to play and yes you can get smoked if you caught half stepping but man they are fun. I already have Baltimore so Witchipoo ain’t worth it to me, but torps always more fun anyways
Emile is the best, I think. I would take that into any tier. La Galissoniere is a crappy, easier to citadel Emile. But I think that I actually personally enjoy the French the most. The have torpedos, and take some skill, they aren’t boring to play. PSN: hckyplayanmba45
