Is it bad if I'm kind of excited about the depots? http://worldofwarships.com/en/news/common/whatsinthebox/ And does anyone else find it a little weird that the new VMF Project %6 destroyer coming was built between 1956 and 58? Also looking forward to the Heroic/Historic commanders coming. Edited December 17, 2016 by renegadestatuz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well, it is the holidays after all. A new VMF DD branch is rather disheartening news, does that really need to be a priority? Also, Smeliy.... I giggled.

We've known about the new VMF DDs for about 2 weeks now. Octavian said in a Q&A about 2 weeks ago that the VMF was going to be getting a DD line split in 2017, as well as a second full DD line in 2017. So by the end of 2017, there will be 2 1/2 - 3 VMF DDs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is something I am kind of interested in seeing. I rather enjoyed the Halloween escort game we got to play, though honestly it ended up being pretty boring after a while.

Leads me to believe possibly something that has to do with shore bombardments. Will be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

572 [O7] Kevik70 [O7] Beta Testers 1,654 posts 10,699 battles Report post #20 Posted December 17, 2016 Okay I think I understand. Thanks both of you The depot will allow you to not only store but to buy stuff in bulk as well. Say cammo goes on sale, currently you can only take advantage of that by playing games with ships using that cammo. With the depot you can buy surplus cammos for use later, unlike the current system which only stores excess you win/earn from missions/ tasks/ crates. So next time prem consumables go on sale I could buy hundreds of them and then use them later, even after the sale has ended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But with a depot, I'll be tempted to sell them when I'm low on credits lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
