991 [HELLS] GrandAdmiral_2016 Members 2,971 posts 40,519 battles Report post #4 Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) I'm grinding North Carolina to Iowa so NC will be my go-to ship until I grind another 120,000 XP in any case. Don't want to dip into my reserve of free XP so I need to grind enough to go straight for engine, fire control and C hull improvements plus the usual upgrades at T9 before I even roll Iowa out for a test drive. I grind the hard way! Played one game this morning in NC (a win) and saw a lot of camping in the backfield! This could get interesting....especially since I am not a big fan of DKM BBs...

What joy, what fun it will be to sink her - and imagine the rage fest going on behind the keyboard. I know - but take what little joy you can, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What joy, what fun it will be to sink her - and imagine the rage fest going on behind the keyboard. That was my Akatsuki game last night. I see a Hood at 10 km so I pop torpedo's to force him to turn out and give my BB a better shot and continue on hunting their DD. So what does Hood do? Sails in a straight line, eats my torpedo's then rants that we intentionally focused fired on him because he was in the Hood. No buddy, we don't care that you are in the Hood, we have one too but you just suffered from a moment of potato-ism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On this occasion LWN was testing it out. Towards the end of the scenario I found her and hunted her down with my Sharnhorst. Ever since then, whenever I see a red Hood, I watch out for it and put as many rounds into it as I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
