395 [DBL-D] Grand_Commander_LuXun Members 2,201 posts 5,012 battles Report post #2 Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) My KD according to WT is currently at a 1.6. My warship destruction ratio is 0.96, slightly disappointing but not sure if it's within normal range for a battleship. Those Germans are really a tough nut to crack. I regularly take heavy damage from Gneiseneaus and Scharnhorsts. I have gotten 3 Confederates in the Colorado so far, got 1 today and 1 yesterday. She really doesn't up-tier well, but I guess that's true for most battleships. But she's the first ship I've played that can shoot down a fair number of planes. In the last match I played with her today, which was unfortunately a heart breaking loss (1 cap, 2 kills, 83k damage), I shot down 19 of the enemy Hiryu's planes.

Left out of pretty much everything except getting preyed upon by a DD. Almost out of it. Almost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ones after her feel like they have butter for armor and citadels the size of planets. Then again, Russian game, you didn't expect American ships to be good did you?

399 Scotty_SE Beta Testers 1,313 posts 12,709 battles Report post #9 Posted December 16, 2016 When the Lolorado got her accuracy buffed she could then kind of hold her own vs the Nagato . The addition of the German BBs though have power creeped the Lolorado back into mediocrity. In my Bayern I have no fear of the USB BB and have never lost a 1 v 1 brawl.

1,593 [CRMSN] Cobraclutch Beta Testers, In AlfaTesters 6,021 posts 4,739 battles Report post #12 Posted December 16, 2016 Colorado is a great ship that requires an even greater captain.

5,644 [O7] 1nv4d3rZ1m Alpha Tester, Alpha Tester 12,147 posts 9,111 battles Report post #13 Posted December 16, 2016 The Colorado relies a lot on positioning because it is very slow for its tier and is soft especially to CA HE. The Heal helps somewhat mitigate the HP deficit but that requires that you survive long enough to use multiple heals. I have a buddy that specializes in BBs he might be willing to play a few rounds with you. Send me a PM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,556 [GWG] AVR_Project Members 8,019 posts 15,964 battles Report post #14 Posted December 16, 2016 Karloradue... Nothing wrong with it ... except.. At tier 7, you can't keep up with your team. This means you get caught out alone from CV snipes and DDs quite often. Battle Starts.. Everyone leaves.. Planes/DDs show up.. Next mission... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

594 sbcptnitro Members 2,709 posts 17,808 battles Report post #17 Posted December 16, 2016 There will always someone who plays it better or worse than you. You have a 1200 WTR in that ship which suggest you are more than "meh" at the ship. The question is does it fit you? I think you'll only know that after you experience more and more BBs as they all play differently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
231 Hangoverhomey Members 1,515 posts 8,453 battles Report post #18 Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) Soft, slow, low HP pool at tier 7 equals food for everything and very situational. It's sometimes a beast but usually just a turd floating. Edited December 16, 2016 by Hangoverhomey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

900 vonKaiser Alpha Tester 2,902 posts 6,252 battles Report post #25 Posted December 16, 2016 I was one of the few who loved the New York, and after the New Mexico the Colorado just seemed like a downgrade. I find if I'm top tier I'll do half way decent with her. If I'm low tier though it's a whole different story. Her guns are accurate at medium/long range so I tend to try to keep Germans at that range. Not easy to do with her speed though. Main thing is you're going to have to pick a location early in the game, go that way and hope you picked right. And then hope your team doesn't collapse around you.
