I'm not quite sure what it is that you received that makes you think that you didn't get what you paid for. Now that being said, there's probably a more fundamental question about how much WG should be encouraging people to gamble at something like 20:1 odds as a means of funding their business. As somebody who usually buys Santa crates each year, the only way that buying them actually makes any sense is if you look at it as one of the few ways to get a chance to get a few of the rarer premium ships. And even then it only makes any sense because it's nearly impossible to get these ships any other way. There are far better ways to spend your money on this game. Treat it like buying a lotto ticket and be happy that you got more than a piece of paper. Any expectations beyond that aren't reasonable, but don't expect WG to suddenly change their business model unless some external force imposes it it upon them!

It's not a bad boat per se, but it's definitely not a boat I'd buy just because you want to be OP. It can be made to work and if it's the top tier DD or it's in a game where it can dominate spotting around caps it can be a monster. But nobody claimed the Cossack was an easy boat to play or even a particularly strong ship for its tier.

Of course, that's why I phrased it that way. It's not a good deal, unless you specifically want the thing that you only have a chance of getting this way: first whack at the new RN DDs. It's a pay for early access in essence, so call it what it is and there's nothing really right or wrong about it except in terms of how you view WG's "micro" transaction business model. There are better ways of getting flags and camos. Edit: Not trying to give you a hard time, just clarifying my point!

You can use those sovereigns to buy more containers too, so if you keep folding them back in you end up with up to 87 additional regular containers that can be used to roll for more chances at the destroyer missions. That said, the containers really aren't a great deal unless you really want the missions.

Well your question doesn't make much sense without context. Why would WG make a "variant" of a ship that already has all of its class members in the game? But to answer your question: no, there is no such rumour.

Yeah sorry about that, I came across a bit more firmly than I intended. I just meant that I understand her ratings to mean more or less what she says. We're living in a meta where ships are garbage these days unless they're OP and it seems to overflow into a lot of these discussions. That said, I just wish that the Duke of York was at least a Mehbote!

I don't really see why. Meh is neither good nor bad, it's the equivalent of shrugging when you see something; more or less what you'd expect. "How was your night out?" "Meh. Not that exciting, but I tried a good new beer at the pub." You don't normally say "meh" about something that you're passionate enough about to say it was bad. A car accident wouldn't be described as "meh"! :) But in any case, her system has been the same for a couple of years, even if she couldn't English we can adapt!

Yeah, we don't really need another T7 RN BB, but this is kind of brutal. It's hard to think of a reason to actually take it out of port, even if it's a free boat. :( A ship like the Tirpitz that never did anything other than consume resources is more viable than one of the few WW2 BBs that actually fought in a major surface action...
