Emperor i regret to inform you that we lost 12 aircraft carriers, 284 aircraft and we didn't even kill the enemy ship. What ship was it? USS Iowa sir. We surrender.
mongolz1000 They all aim as if you are going in a straight line from your position. So to dodge them, just begin turning before they fire. If you are in full turn, they will always be WAY off. Never be going straight with your side to the torpedo droppers, and you will be fine.
Richard Smith if they are human players, not AI not newbie in their fresh tier 4 CV. If it is a well aim shot, doesn't matter how skilled the BB driver is, he will at least take two torps per successful 4 plane squadron. Since the AA on Iowa is so good, she will take about one per squadron(safe estimate)the number of torps launch in th first wave is about 4*2*10, if 1/4 of them hits, he will at least take 20. If the players coordinate, and launch from diffferent side, he will certain take more. This is just a video kicking puppies
tragedyofwind Well, its doesn't matter if its human or not. If you are turning when they are dropped, you will naturally have an easier time dodging. It is easier to stop turning than it is to start. I agree that carriers are too strong right now. Torpedo bombers need to be doing significantly less damage to balance it.
BrassSpyglass that would be 11 essex, against 12 langleys (maybe 6 langleys and 6 boogue) you get a samar battle... maybe adding a Kongo class a couple of DDs for the american and some smaller ships for the IJN
Errrr....emperor.... What is it? very bad news.we lost 12 aircraft carriers and 284 aircraft.we did not even sink the enemy battle ship. Which one? The uss iowa. ....
Titou1384 sure is. :) to kill them faster you should actually set them on fire, THEN switch to AP while they are on fire and sink them with the heavier damage from citadels. :) IMO
Yeah, I'm sorry, i answered before watching the whole video and in the end, there was no more planes to be afraid of. So yep, aiming right with the AP should've been faster, but he would've been to be careful with the overpen otherwise.
Titou1384 yea I learned the hard way with over penning. I was destroyed by DD's so many times before learning to use HE on them. :P lol My shots went in one side and out the other doing absolutely no damage at all... :D :P lol
Tactically, wouldn't it have been better to just stand off outside the range of the carriers' guns and smash them with impunity? Surely the Iowa's guns outrange those of the carriers? I wouldn't be surprised if most of the damage done to the Iowa was from the carriers' guns, not planes. Unless the aim was to get the Iowa's secondary guns into the action - they did do about as much damage as the main guns (about 179K damage if I recall correctly). Still, you would hardly have taken any damage if you just smashed them from afar. Wouldn't be anywhere as much fun though... :).
after you destroyed all the planes, why did you not get distance between you so that the secondaries couldn't continually set you on fire? you're a Battleship! you have range! also then you can rain AP down on their decks OR HE to set them on fire...
well, it looked like OP was gonna die because of the secondaries at one point. much less risky to stay at short range (< 10 km) but still out of range of secondaries (~5 km)
I inform that torpedo amount is 2,000,000 and 1,000,000 bombs Captain of USS Iowa-how many hits Scout-200 Captain of Iowa-bomb hits? Scout-1,000 Captain Of Iowa-Wow Thats gotta hurt Scout-10 torpedos on your side Captain Of Iowa- *TURNS HARD* Scout-1000 BOMBS INCOMIINNGGG Captain Of Iowa-we are seriously are getting water and fire some of the other crew are dead Scout-how many crew died? Captain Of Iowa-100 first officers died 120 anti aircraft crews Scout-wow very serious damage Captain of Hosho-Oof
This is exactly what drove me away from WoWS; shells have NO consistence, sometimes they deal 1k sometimes they deal 200 or less, and let's be real: do you think such high caliber of rounds should only be doing 2k or less to these hoshos? get real, feels like we are firing BB guns (toy guns, not battleship guns) in these ships. AP is too unreliable because it is too much affected by random angles and RNG meaning you either hit for 10k+ with citadels or absolutelly 0 damage. HE is kind of on the same boat: game tells you to use HE on weakly armored targets- puff, 200 damage per shell while AP could be doing more (or not, depending on rng). Damage/armor/penetration models are totally out of this world in this game. I had fun while I had my high tiered ships during closed beta but as soon as the wipe came I knew I wasn't going to pick that game up and grind through this bullshit again. And before anyone says "It's beta"... they had the mechanics right at the start, until they decided to play around with them by 1st) buffing HE to the point where no one bothered with AP; setting people on fire every 10 seconds was what rulled. 2nd) Completelly reworking armor models and nerfing AP rounds from doing small hull damage even if they bounced (which in terms means AP got double nerfed, less penetration and less damage overall). Why do you think cruisers are often praised as the best class? They might not have much armor but the DPM compensates for all the crazy randomness with the mechanics; not to speak about the horrible 5km accuracy on BB guns which is plain retarded. All in all, WG managed to screw a perfectly fine game in less than 3 months; but I should have known
Joi kax its all about where you hit, just like IRL. Ships could take several hundred hits and dont sink and at other times it literaly takes a single shot to sink it. The Hood for example was sunk by the bismarck with an single shell ripping it apart by hitting the magazin while the british navy wasnt capable of sinking the bismarck even after it was abbandoned by its crew and it then was sunk by the crew which set up explosives to prevent them from getting any intel. You cant blaim the game for not knowing where to aim. Firing AP at the superstructure dont get you anywhere, firinging it at unarmored targets doesnt do anything either since the shells pass right through and only some kinetic damage will be inflicted. HE is great for unarmored ships and setting stuff on fire. Its all about knowing your ammo.
TheLordOfWar Blaming game for not knowing where to aim? You realise you are talking to a person with hundreds of hours on record AND a closed beta tester right? I felt bad for raping low tier newbies once the game came live because all they did was fire away whatever they had in their barrels without aiming for specific spots; even with AP. I do know where to shoot at, but even then 4/5 shells deal crap damage or completelly fail to hit what I'm aiming at. I can understand shells not hitting dead center on a weakspot but dealing 200/300 damage per BB shell is absolutelly retarded in every aspect. You would think a shell with caliber above 300MM would be a monster and just from shear impact would cause severe damage; nope, just another pewpew gun like in WoT and WoWP. Why do you think cruisers rule and roflstomp targets (even if they ultimatelly die in the end)? They can compensate for such discrepancies through their rate of fire. 1 shell hits for 200? oh okay, next shell loaded deals 1k or more; cool. Same doesn't happen with BBs unless you get lucky time after time.
If ships had 10k health and BBs dealt 200 per shell then fine; thought WG would have to adjust cruiser shells to deal 50/100 and DDs a mere 10 on average. The way it is now is 20% skill 80% luck at higher tiers
Joi kax aim for the citadels like any other skilled player and you are guaranteed even with only an single hit to deal atleast 15k damage depending on your shell.
***** nope. AA guns don't give you damage done (as far as I know, been in since alpha and haven't seen it) so that should of all been to the Hoshos. lol
+David Beauchemin he would have lost, Hoshos are quitemanouverable, so at least 3 of them would had managed to ram him. Also, more torpedos would have hit him.
SpaiderChief what i have heard the Des Moines has retarded AA, yeah they fire at long range but hits are pretty rare and the 76mm fire pretty slow... im not sure but that's just what i heard..
KlausKinski Hits are not at all rare and in my opinion, the Des Moines is more effective as an AA ship than the Baltimore. With the captain crew skills of increased AA efficiency and range partnered with the 20% AA effectiveness module, the AA dominates and with the "Y key" buff in game, the AA chews through squadrons.
SpaiderChief maybe but atm with the HE buff i think you are better off to take the main gun accuracy module with you so you can rek like 10 ships alone.. no seriously fast firing ships are now retarded OP... it has to get addressed before the game goes live...
KlausKinski Granted that HE will provide the best option at the moment offensively, you still need the rest of your team to defeat the opposing team, and one of the most dangerous threats is bombers. HE right now is stupidly overpowered and fire could be set in the water in the current game, but War Gaming announced in their recent update notes (today) that AP will receive less of a chance to ricochet off of ships traveling toward you at a weird angle and they are trying to re-balance HE and AP.
How did you get to be 1 Sway Back against 12 aircraft carriers?, that looked awesome, probably wouldn't of been so close to dead if you would of used AP on them, 1 Iowa against a max capacity team of St Louis Cruisers, I've got a computer specially designed for gaming an I get a lag for 1 to 3 seconds, it's either an overload on the internet or the game overloading, but not everybody is experiencing the problem from lag, most probably the internet overloading from the information, between having a slow not very maneuverable ship and the long lagging, Torpedoes are a royal pain, lol, but it's a great game I'm sure you would of had a wonderful amount of XP and credits from that battle, if it wasn't just practice.
God I miss these sounds. The game sounded so much better back in CBT. ships would groan and moan under heavy fire, AA sounded amazing and you could distinguish which of your curtain of AA was firing, intermittent poofs were for the DP artillery, more sustained popping that would go in and out of sync for your mid range AA, and then the absolute hell of rapid fire close range AA. If you were a decent captain that could distinguish which of his or her AA was firing it could give you a heads up on how close or far the planes were away so you could start taking action. not to mention the AA had a sort of sound flavor, I.E. USN AA sounded distinctly different from IJN AA... Here's hoping we get some of that back with the AA sound improvements coming in 0.5.14
LOLing at all the "why did you get in range of the CV's secondarys???" comments. Because it would have made for a boring-as-f*ck "look at me bully some anchored bots" video. Was quite fun to see and I did wonder if the CVs would finally get you right at the end :D
+Donny Whisnu i did alot of 12x ryujo and hiryus (idk how those are spelled) vs me and my friends in montanas. Thats about 400 planes - went OKish ~20 fps when shot got real.

Bruh you are not better than these hosho bots xD Why u used HE? You are coming as close as they can fire secondaries? Rly? AP will kill these little shits by one salvo. But wtf is wrong with this game. Historical accuracy doesn't exist for fuck sake. Over 1 ton HE shell can do only a little damage? Are u kidding me WG? This one shell should tear a part these little CVs and do much more damage than this historically accurate 9 shell salvo.
Seems like you were let out of the Salt Mines on day release. Lord Jingles shared your video on facebook. May the Dear Leader grant you a benevolent bounty of views, time and new subs. Live long and prosper. **someone yanks the chain around scara and spud's neck** "back to tha salt mines wit ya!"
This battle should have been Fletcher-Class Destroyer vs Hoshos. You could maneuver through the torps, swiftly destroy the carriers with torps/guns, and the Fletcher is known for it's AA capabilities so you could still knock down the planes.
look at how the AA guns actually turn and you can see the shell tracers leaving from the ship. compare that to now where the guns dont move at all and the fire starts 2 km from the ship. WG are strange
That woulda gone a LOT quicker with AP. I mean... you even had all the planes shot down and were still using HE lol. Also you could have just dodged torps till they ran out then ranged them so you weren't getting hit by their secondaries.
tho gun do have a hell of the range Advantage you could have set 16-17 kilometers away from them and blown their fucking ass out of the water without any of their secondary guns hitting you you just have to worry about fucking aircraft you don't always have to get up and close that's what a fucking battleship is meant for the blow shit up far away
Since the enemy carriers are static, why would sail within range of their guns???? Just pick them off from beyond their range. They can only shoot a couple of miles; you can shoot 15 miles or so.
Go google wows mods and click on the first link Run the mod pack and choose the "enable training room" and install the mod Dont worry, you wont get banned
I like how people say “see America is so much better than Japan in WoWs” but this is a tier 9 Vs tier 4s, if this had higher tier Japanese carriers it would of been a better fight.
Wait, so am I the only one that dodges torpedoes by slowing down while turning? at 3:00 i think you could've dodged that torp if you dropped some speed.
Trick should've been to first send fighter to get the AA guns on them and then right after the fighters send bombers: Flank on both sides with torps and GG
Why were you going inside the 2ndary armament of the CC'S? Your 2ndary armament range is farther isn't is? Skim the edge so they can't shoot you while you chewthem up... Also 10 for 10, I would have tried ramming you if I were one of those carriers :)
Golem WoT Because if he does that, it's called target practice, and there is no skill, no luck, and no suspense. You might as well not even do it in the first place.
It would have been a lot easier for you if, after you shot down all of their torpedo bombers, you stayed outside of the range of their guns so that they couldn't do anything to you. You could have only taken damage from their torps and you could have sniped them with your vastly superior range and not have been set on fire. :)

What ship was it?
USS Iowa sir.
We surrender.
Seems legit.
If only america had built the montana...
Robert Harris It would've ended up like the Yamato, the resources would have been much better used to build two new Essexs :P
Lemming Train Conductor id rather see the montana refit with rail guns.
Or the a Iowa
Meanwhile, on the bridge....1st mate: Captain, we have torps inbound. Captain - How many? 1st Mate: All of them....all of them ever...
If the enemies were smarter you wouldn't have any chance. The first ~50 torps failed like shit.
Nie wieder Krieg mit Russland! Yepp.

+tragedyofwind titanic only need to scrap to sink, would you think an Iowa like in the game can survive 4 torps? no way
tragedyofwind Well, its doesn't matter if its human or not. If you are turning when they are dropped, you will naturally have an easier time dodging. It is easier to stop turning than it is to start.
I agree that carriers are too strong right now. Torpedo bombers need to be doing significantly less damage to balance it.
should have done it with the Yamoto instead, and reenact like the Yamoto last battle
İts YAMATO and its should be Essex carriers instead
+Toprak özdemir shit, my bad, typo. thanks
1 Iowa, vs 12 st louises

Well can u do 1 erie vs 10 yamatos
Well can u do 1 erie vs 10 yamato vs 10 montanas vs 10 louises vs 10 iowa
That would be hard
Now do this with Yamato and 12 langleys and you have a Ten-go recreation.
BrassSpyglass it was 11 essex
MAX L Yeah but that would be terribly one-sided and undramatic, unlike this video.
Exactly, that would be awesome
BrassSpyglass that would be 11 essex, against 12 langleys (maybe 6 langleys and 6 boogue) you get a samar battle... maybe adding a Kongo class a couple of DDs for the american and some smaller ships for the IJN
BrassSpyglass out of the 400 or so planes that assaulted the yamato, 17 were shot down
Yamato be like. There some dots in the air that are dropping dust in the water
Essex: *smirks*
the idea is HE to take our the deck then fire AP to rek the shit out of em
Eric Melendez AP goes right through Hoshos. They don't have any armor.
CompassProductions how do you change the reticles?
Magni56 I doubt that the 16 in shells would plunge at 11km.
Horrible Four they were bots....
Eric Melendez Mistake on my part, but then this isn't a very impressive feat. Then again, I'm the kind of guy that bitches at almost everything.
They need to do this with the Yamato vs 12 Essex's as a operation ten-go challenge.
Too soon or too late ?
We know how that turned out 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Errrr....emperor....
What is it?
very bad news.we lost 12 aircraft carriers and 284 aircraft.we did not even sink the enemy battle ship.
Which one?
The uss iowa.
....
I'm cringing this whole video... Man. It killed me to watch it. I was screaming for u to use AP JUST A LITTLE BIT... u would have won so much faster.
The point of HE is to set th deck on fire so the planes can't take off anymore
Titou1384 sure is. :) to kill them faster you should actually set them on fire, THEN switch to AP while they are on fire and sink them with the heavier damage from citadels. :) IMO

In real life, wouldn't over penning create holes that could in turn cause flooding? I mean, that is how a lot of pirate ships were sunk.
Rear Admiral Jingles bought me here
Tactically, wouldn't it have been better to just stand off outside the range of the carriers' guns and smash them with impunity? Surely the Iowa's guns outrange those of the carriers? I wouldn't be surprised if most of the damage done to the Iowa was from the carriers' guns, not planes.

Kevin Tan What's the point of that? We learn that when the enemy can't shoot back, winning is easy?
well, it looked like OP was gonna die because of the secondaries at one point. much less risky to stay at short range (< 10 km) but still out of range of secondaries (~5 km)

+Donny Whisnu i did alot of 12x ryujo and hiryus (idk how those are spelled) vs me and my friends in montanas. Thats about 400 planes - went OKish ~20 fps when shot got real.
record the shit outta that epic moment. Gun be entertaining.
14:53 ITS ALL THERE, BLACK AND WHITE, CLEAR AS CRYSTAL, YOU GET NOTHING, YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!
I do believe your caps-lock is on, good sir.
+Dark Prelate Mohandar Was that a Willy Wonka reference? If so, I applaud you sir.
How do u set up a game like that?
Its part of a mod pack, its called aslains mods.

If I had not seen it, I would not have believed it. Holy crap that's a lot of downed aircraft.
Take a tier 10 cruiser and fight 10 tier 2 DDs.
Hei dude! How do you managed to play you only versus configured bots? Is this still avalible?
It's a training. Mod
It can be unlocked
you do realize this is how the Legendary Yamato sunk?
+Nerdy “Sci-Twi” Twilight Except Yamato was sunk by a bunch of Essex class Carriers, which is tier 9 in this game
I want to see that, Yamato vs 12 Essex CV
+Hansel Sihotang it was more like 7-9 carriers to be more Historically correct, thats how the Yamato sunk.
Hey, including the Enterprise
+Cardin Lam and Hornet
Now replace the Hosho's with one Taihou and the Iowa is dead as soon as the first wave is completed. Seen it happen many times.
IJN Nagato Better 1 Montana vs 12 Hakuryus (with t3 airwings) >:)
IJN Nagato Shouldn't you be busy managing the fleet?!
Once the Hoshou is mass produced
That moment when 1700lb HE shells does 3k damage after 9 successful hits.
mierzhen That sounds way to less...
+mierzhen more like 2200 lbs.
Valoro85 and with HE, about 2k more average.
+Valoro85 Yes.But that happens only with the low tier BBs.Later you can destroy a cruiser with one shot.;)
What if IOWA was Yamato?.
the iowa is a beautiful ship
Commander of hosho-Sir we lost 12 carriers and 284 planes
Commander of amagi-what ship was it
Commander of hosho-Uss iowa sir
Commander Of Amagi-SINK THAT BITCH
Commander of Chickuma-Respond to all ships IJN Hosho is Heavily Damaged
Commander of Yamato-im here at leyte
Commander of Hosho Amagi, Yamato Chickuma Respoonnnddddd
Commander Of Iowa And Montana-Lol hahahahahahahahha
Commander Of Hosho-WE ARE SINKING I REPEAT WE ARE SINKING
Commander Of Yamato-Ok Backup Is Coming *SINKS IN LEYTE*
Commander of amagi-Another Ship Lost
Commander of Iowa-Hehehehhehe
Commander Of Iowa:LEL JAPANESE FUCKS BOI
If this game was realistic, that battleship would have never been able to take all those torpedoes.
Pfft it sounds like a Battleship with an ignition key. 1:49 OMG!! the Aliens are coming. COVER YOUR FACE
You know, im kinda surprised that the AA guns didnt run outta ammo....
Bruh you are not better than these hosho bots xD Why u used HE? You are coming as close as they can fire secondaries? Rly? AP will kill these little shits by one salvo.
But wtf is wrong with this game. Historical accuracy doesn't exist for fuck sake. Over 1 ton HE shell can do only a little damage? Are u kidding me WG? This one shell should tear a part these little CVs and do much more damage than this historically accurate 9 shell salvo.
Seems like you were let out of the Salt Mines on day release. Lord Jingles shared your video on facebook.
May the Dear Leader grant you a benevolent bounty of views, time and new subs.
Live long and prosper.
**someone yanks the chain around scara and spud's neck**
"back to tha salt mines wit ya!"
This battle should have been Fletcher-Class Destroyer vs Hoshos. You could maneuver through the torps, swiftly destroy the carriers with torps/guns, and the Fletcher is known for it's AA capabilities so you could still knock down the planes.
look at how the AA guns actually turn and you can see the shell tracers leaving from the ship. compare that to now where the guns dont move at all and the fire starts 2 km from the ship. WG are strange
That woulda gone a LOT quicker with AP. I mean... you even had all the planes shot down and were still using HE lol. Also you could have just dodged torps till they ran out then ranged them so you weren't getting hit by their secondaries.
tho gun do have a hell of the range Advantage you could have set 16-17 kilometers away from them and blown their fucking ass out of the water without any of their secondary guns hitting you you just have to worry about fucking aircraft you don't always have to get up and close that's what a fucking battleship is meant for the blow shit up far away
Since the enemy carriers are static, why would sail within range of their guns???? Just pick them off from beyond their range. They can only shoot a couple of miles; you can shoot 15 miles or so.
I'm guessing this was how the US Navy tested the Iowa-class torpedo protection.
I love this game. If you have a potato PC don't expect a great experience. How did you get this match? I want to replicate this battle you just did.
How do you set up bots like that?
There's a training room enabler mod you can often find in Aslain's modpack.
how do you set this up?
+C. Jukes That's what I want to know
ME 3
Go google wows mods and click on the first link
Run the mod pack and choose the "enable training room" and install the mod
Dont worry, you wont get banned
I like how people say “see America is so much better than Japan in WoWs” but this is a tier 9 Vs tier 4s, if this had higher tier Japanese carriers it would of been a better fight.
I'm confused on how you took so little damage from each torp... I get hit by torps from aircraft, it's at least like 6K damage.
Wait, so am I the only one that dodges torpedoes by slowing down while turning?
at 3:00 i think you could've dodged that torp if you dropped some speed.
Sir we lost every light carrier we had
What about the battleship?
well it wasn’t like yamato
Trick should've been to first send fighter to get the AA guns on them and then right after the fighters send bombers: Flank on both sides with torps and GG
Excuse me, is this bot mode still avalible? How can i start a match ? I would like to try some training stuff there!
Hey, I am sorry but still I have to ask this stupid question. How can u make this setting of AI? How?
it wouldve been really easy to get away from their secondaries. but hey. also use some bloody AP once they dont have any planes left to service.
i have something for you ;) you can take your iowa, and i take my batlimore, and not any more hosho but ryujo ! are you interested in ? ;)
iowa and montana look soo nice man... i went with japan couse yamato had the 460 mm guns... not sure if i am regreting it right now...
Fletcher destroyer vs several japanese cruisers and battleships. Remake of the battle of leyte gulf.😂
Yup AP would be better ... even when you overpen you willget citadel hits ( for the most time )
bro I wish that I could be like you the way that you manage this giant battleship wow amazing I rate 5 stars congratulation
It's like the only AA and enough dodging skills would be enough to wreck the aerial force xD
75 percent of this video: DODGING TORPEDOES.
You see, it would have been a more fun challenge if they all set full steam ahead to ram you after the squads were down.
I feel like your angle of attack would have worked better with ap, so you could have citadeled them
1. RAM THEM!!! 2. Why are u using HE shells u should use AP!!!
This scene reminds me of the Yamato's last voyage before they sank her in the Pacific using aircraft
If i won this with Tirpitz and 77% AA defense it shouldn't be a problem for the Iowa
Why were you going inside the 2ndary armament of the CC'S? Your 2ndary armament range is farther isn't is? Skim the edge so they can't shoot you while you chewthem up...
Also 10 for 10, I would have tried ramming you if I were one of those carriers :)
Golem WoT Because if he does that, it's called target practice, and there is no skill, no luck, and no suspense. You might as well not even do it in the first place.
Guess this is what would have happened if Yamato had not turned back at Leyte Gulf.
that has to be AI carriers, 24 torpedo squadrons and you didn't surround the BB!!!!!!!!!
no way you going to avoid all torps.... shot down already 77 planes LOL
I understand why you used HE in the beginning, but not when you were trying to kill them.
Just re watched this.
This is by far your most viewed video 299K!
let just say that you have been hit 5 time by torpedo. imagine that with taiho torpedo instead lol.
And pls use next time Ap shells on this ship it might have a better effect (my experience)
It would have been a lot easier for you if, after you shot down all of their torpedo bombers, you stayed outside of the range of their guns so that they couldn't do anything to you. You could have only taken damage from their torps and you could have sniped them with your vastly superior range and not have been set on fire. :)
Joel Kupstas Yes, easier and totally pointless. What's interesting about watching an Iowa shooting 12 anchored Hosho bots?
Do you have to unlock the ship normally to use it in training room?
This totally should have been Yamato vs. 12 Bogues
World of warplanes players vs a world of warships player
How did you change the targeting screen? Or is that a feature that comes at the higher tiers? :o
If planes had done manual drop and right angle to each other you would`nt have got in range to sink even one carrier
coorowdarts Sure but he would have had Escorting Baltimore's Fletchers and Des Moines.
this is just a game, think if it have real in history, you know what i mean =))
crazy man! but beautiful. iowa battleship is very mighty!
THE LAG THE LAG ITS TAKING OVER EVERYONE BARRICADE YOUR WINDOWS AND HIDE!!
hey how do u get to test your aa guns like that? i wanna try it out my self can u show me?
wtf these torps do like 1-2k damage? is that all?
How on earth did you make that match?? It looks well fun to try.
How do you set up the game like that? Is there a single player element?
wow... this is a great example of the NEED for the BB close range accuracy buff! plus the usage of AP would have brought the match to a quicker end.
