(Having a Texas makes this decision harder, but grinding the BB line was enough to make me do it.) It's brand new, first time out, and grinding for the "MO" means I wont be using Free XP to skip it. Wont spend doubloons either so the captain is half trained. My expectations were so low I wouldn't put premium consumables on and almost went without any flags. Turns out the consumables weren't needed and I'm glad I took the economy flags. Entered the game and there were two CVs each side, and instantly wished I had brought my Texas. As the title says I got a Kraken. Even more interesting, I only had 1 kill when there were only 4 enemies left.

After I had more battleship experience and had purchased Texas: I went back an played New York again and it was a perfectly acceptable ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once had a chance at a solo warrior in her, but 6 ships v 1 was too much. 4 kills and I burned down , almost had them capped too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once had a chance at a solo warrior in her, but 6 ships v 1 was too much. 4 kills and I burned down , almost had them capped too. The only solo I ever got was in an Aurora. It was because I was off alone killing a CV and in the last minute the last 4 ships on the other team killed off my remaining team member. We had the caps, or at least two of them plus being ahead in points. They didn't have the time to do anything about that and we couldn't get in firing range either. So I got a solo. I had over 58k damage and was top score on the team, but didn't feel like the solo was quite earned. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
