Ah the Fletcher, my favorite Destroyer. 

All the good points of the Benson but better with Defensive AA included. 

Sadly the Gearing can be a bit of a let down after this awesome little boat.

Gonna top the line eventually. Another grind in view! Right now I am grinding towards a third 19-point captain (for my Iowa) using all the flags WG/WoWs gave us for the Birthday Party! Priority after that is Des Moines, then another RN 19-pointer. As I have said elsewhere, I prefer real ships, not paper ones, so I grind the lines that have a real ship at T10 first. I did the RN CL line just to prove to myself that I could get there eventually. Now I set goals I know I can reach. Thank you all!

Depends on what you consider a "real ship".  I view any ship that was ordered to be "real".  Obviously, if construction started, I also consider those real.  I don't really think of ships like the Tillman "Maximum Battleships" BB's to be "real" since they were little more than a design study, not an actual attempt to design a ship that was meant to be ordered, contracted, and built.

Almost everything is a let down after Fletcher; she's just a really great boat. The two high end German DD's are in the fight though, both Z-46 and Z-52 can hold their own against Fletcher.

So i decided I want to get to fletcher relatively quickly.  I have enough freexp to finish mahan, but I dont particularily mind grinding it out to freexp through benson instead.  Are there things to learn grinding benson that I'll need for success in fletcher or do they all kindof play the same from t5-9?   I play a lot of nicholas and sims currently and I can handle myself in USNDD.   Just seems easier on the surface to grind T7, than to grind T8 with the MM what it is.

Done! In my port! Test drive successful! One down, two to go...

And another one bites the dust...Des Moines in my port. Montana next, halfway there, although I am not fussy about ships never built-I may go for Gearing first. I need T10s for Clan battles when they start so one of each gunship type is a must.
