I LOVE secondary builds. In WoWs, the German BB's and BC's are my most played and favorite ships, because of the secondary builds. Heck, I even built my Anhalt as a secondary ship, even though many said it's not worth it, because she has too few secondary guns... but let me tell ya, she still rips things apart with her little guns in the Operations, lol. So the secondary builds work fine on the USN BBV's? I have a secondary specced Halsey without a tech tree home, and I was planning to stick him into Nebraska, so that I can use her in the Ops... lel.

Yah, I noe, the leak sounds a bit sus, in many ways... lol. Still, it's fun to speculate... lel. OK fine, no Kearsarge as PR6 in AL. Then gimme Nebraska. I kinda wanted Nebraska in WoWs, because I really like her "half carrier in the back and half battleship in the front" design that actually looks more... fitting for a battlecarrier, so to speak, and none of that "derpy island runway in the center" design, like the rest of the USN BBV's. However, I gave up grinding for her, because (1) Colorado is still too painful to play, even in PvE, and (2) I ran out of credits after grabbing Clausewitz... lul.

I bet Manjuu is saving Alaska as one of the wild cards, in case the popularity of the game dips and they need something to bring people back, lol. Or she's due to arrive at some point, just not anytime soon. I mean, we don't know what kind of schedule that the devs have planned for this game... lel. That's just me though, lul.

I always had a personal fondness for Yamshiro in AL. She was one of the few non-Ironblood ships that I used, back when I was a fledgling shikikan. I started playing this game at the same time when it went live as an open beta, back in August of 2018. Back then, the Ironblood had ZERO back line ships. Still, I decided to main Ironblood, because why not and DOITSUNO KAGAKUWA SEKAI ICHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~, lol. Nonetheless, I had to put someone in the back lines of my fleets, else I wouldn't be able to sortie. So I picked few, based on their looks, overall character, and the kind of skins that were available at the time. Yamashiro became one of my first pick, because she's cute, kind, and very lively, and also quite hawt, plus she's one of the first ship girls to get swimsuit skins, lel. Even back then, she and her sister Fuso were considered as lackluster, especially after their retrofit. I simply didn't care, since I liked her very much, and kept using her. I don't even keep any dupes of the sisters to keep copies in their non-retrofit forms. There are plenty of other BB/BC's for shelling and/or barrage jobs. I want my Yamashiro for shelling + airstrike hybrid, and that's all that matters to me. Of course, over the years, as more Ironblood ships got released, she eventually got replaced and benched. Still, whenever I need to sail a Sakura Empire fleet, such as grinding for some Sakura Empire PR ships, then she always comes out of her retirement to sail once again, lul.

You do have a point, but I'm not so sure, TBH... lol. The thing is though, IIRC, Kearsarge in WoWs isn't exactly like the design that existed in real life and went to Soviet Union. She could just be WeeGee's own twisted interpretation of it, like many of WeeGee's own what-if fantasy creations. AFAIK, the design itself doesn't even call its ship as Kearsarge, and rather it's a name that WeeGee assigned to the ship that they made and released into their game. Additionally, IIRC, the design was never built IRL either, not even having her keel laid down. So I think in a technical sense, Kearsarge can qualify as a PR ship. I donno, that's just me... lel. That being said, the Eagle Union BBV that is leaked to be in PR6 could just be one of the tech tree ones instead, like you said. We'll just have to wait and see.

Courtesy of AL reddit. Yamashiro ASMR coming soon. English subtitled trial version on Youtube is below the image. I like it very much. It's soothing... lol. It's good to see and hear from Yamashiro again. She used to get a lot of skins, because her artist cared for her very much... but then I heard he quit making artworks for AL, because his "daughters" were all collection tier only and it apparently made him mad. Aww. Hopefully we can get an ASMR from Fusou too, sometime in the future? LEL. (AL reddit source link) (Youtube video source link)

I wasn't aware of this method. Although, it says it's for recovering an account that lost its link to Steam account. And it doesn't seem to work with any WG account that was created before the game first showed up on Steam. Well, OP can try this if he wants to.

You can't take your existing WG account and use it on Steam. I don't know why, but that's just how it's been ever since WoWs first showed up on Steam. When you first log into the game through Steam, you'll be creating a brand new pseudo-account that comes automatically linked to your Steam account. You can then come to the official WoWs website, register that pseudo-account, turn it into a properl WG account, and start using it also on the WGC. Essentially, what this mean is that you would have two methods to log into the game, on one account, as long as you keep it linked to your Steam account AND register it at the official WoWs website... even though that would also mean that you would need to install the game twice on your hard drive (both the WGC version and the Steam version), which is a real waste of storage space and pointless, lol. However, as I said, for some reason, you can't go backwards, i.e. make an account on WGC first, then take it to the Steam version of WoWs. In short, if you already have an account created through WGC, then you're stuck on WGC with that account, and can't use it on Steam... unless you want to start over with a fresh account.

Here's my own little speculation, in regards to the CN leak... lol.

@HazeGrayUnderway: I actually blame that on Wargaming. Even WoWs still has plenty of RL historical ships that they can add to the game, but they rather have been more focused on making and adding their own what-if fake fantasy botes, over the years. IMO, It wouldn't be a stretch to say that Manjuu probably learned a thing or two about it... lol. That's just me though... lel.

Courtesy of AL reddit. So somebody on the CN side has posted a supposed "leak" for the future contents for this year on a CN forum, and somebody translated and posted it on AL reddit. I am not sure how accurate this is, but considering that the leak has been correct for past few times, maybe it has some validity? Perhaps? I donno, lol. A little warning: DON'T open the spoilers, obviously, if you don't want to bother with the leak. You have been warned, lel. At least, I can say... (AL reddit source link)

Here's a little PSA, in regards to one of the scheduled events, for 1.1: save your Immersifier coins from the Simulated Universe until June 23rd, for the double relic rewards event. In case anyone didn't know, when you do the Simulated Universe, you can claim up to 4 Immersifiers as part of the weekly rewards. Then , you can use those Immersifiers inside the SU, after a battle with an elite or a boss, to claim your relic reward, a mixed set of Planar Spheres and Link Ropes. You can also use 40 Trailblazer Power to claim the relic reward, if you ran out of the Immersifiers... though you might want to use your TP on other stuffs, such as farming at the calyxes. Your account can hold up to 8 Immersifiers, max. On June 23rd, a limited time event will start, where the number of relics that you can get per Immersifiers will be doubled. So, for example, if you were getting a total of, say, 5 relic pieces (a mix of 3 ~ 5 star ones) per Immersifiers, then the event will double it to 10 pieces. This is a pretty big deal, since the relic farming can be pretty... heartbreaking, since the RNG is so unpredictable and it's difficult to get desired stats on the relics. Thus, any "bonus" to ease the burden is certainly a welcome opportunity. Unless, of course, you don't care about this kind of stuff and will just play the game at your pace. That's actually fine too, TBH... lol. If you're doing it though, then it will be the best if you can make it to Trailblazer Level 60 by June 23rd. At TL 60, the number of gold relic pieces from the Immersifier reward will be two, increased from one. So when you double it, that's FOUR gold pieces. That's a huge increase, FOR FREE. If you can't make it to TL 60 by June 23rd, then you should at least try to make it to TL 40. At TL 40, the gold relic pieces will start to show up as a part of the Immersifier reward, one piece per Immersifier. Double that, and that's two gold pieces. Still a good deal. Below TL 40, you do not get any gold relic pieces, so it is NOT recommended to do any relic farming yet. Instead, it's recommended to focus more on the TL, the EXP's (for both character levels and Light Cone levels), and the credits. So what you should do is SAVE the 4 Immersifiers from this week, save 4 more from next week... then NOT claim any weekly rewards from the week of June 23rd... then once the event starts on June 23rd, use those 8 saved Immersifers, then claim 4 more from the unclaimed rewards... for a total of 12 Immersifiers for the double rewards. Now, there is a bit of a speculation on the internet, based on what the devs did with a similar event that happened in Genshin Impact, that the devs might put a cap on the number of times that the double rewards can be claimed, thereby preventing the players from taking advantage of the event as outlined above. I guess we'll just have to see, lel. Personally for myself, I am going for it, becausee why not. Granted, I haven't done much of the relic farming, since I was more occupied with farming for the EXP's, the credits, and the trace materials... but the relic farming is still a b***h, and I ain't gonna pass up on any shortcuts in my way... lul. Here's a Youtube video with more details on the matter: (Youtube video source link)

Ah yes, Xianzhou Alliance... lol.

You mean Loufu? Or Luofu? LOL.

Oh man, I am having a lot of fun with Silver Wolf, lol. So one of the new features that was added with 1.1 is highlighting the common enemies that drop a particular material that you need. You can just sweep around a map that you already cleared, fighting the roaming fodders again, collecting those knick knacks and googaws that you need for the ascension or traces. It's such a nifty feature, giving you a nice excuse to just roam around and fight stuffs, even without any quest or mission... lel. So I've been doing that with my second party, just to shake things up a bit. It's quite fun to fiddle around with Silver Wolf's skill and implement either Quantum or Physical weakness on the enemies and breaking them, which then plays into Sushan'gs playstyle of dealing extra damage to weakness broken enemies. The party is bit underdeveloped, compared to my first party, but I am slowly farming for stuffs to bring it up to speed... lul.
