659 [SOFW] mobryan Members 1,445 posts 7,924 battles Report post #6 Posted November 30, 2016 when I started the game, Erie or maybe Orlan. Went back to grind when the RN cruisers were released, and the Black Swan is more fun than a racoon in a tent revival... Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This thread is going to be a whole lot of apples vs oranges, since the capabilities of the ships are so different than they were a few months ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2,300 [SYN] Kuckoo Members 5,956 posts 13,861 battles Report post #10 Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Miss two-shotting and wrecking fools (especially Hermelins. Citadel city all day.) with the AP armed Orlan and an BFT/AFT trained 10-point captain. Honestly, a tier I ship had no business with guns that good - before stripped of it's AP, of course. Now, the Black Swan is really the only one that matters. Edited November 30, 2016 by Kuckoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
