Who do we blame for her sinking bad marksmanship, unskilled gunners? The bismarck was germanys flagship really i didnt realise and the hood was englands. So in the real battle hood was shooting at the wrong ship correct? Germanys or germanies? germany's....................... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am trying to think of something to say but I got nothing by the way thought you were only a pro VMF ship player anyway what are you doing playing other countries ships. You have mentioned this in a number of posts about your VMF fetish on 1 occasion demanding they remove the trial Scharnhorst WG sent you, I smell hypocrisy here.

Seriously, every ship presents it's own unique challenges to finally play well with, or at least half-decently. Play the Hood with a 14+ captain and she comes into her own. She is a survivor and if you can get her into the end-game she is a killer, even a game-carrier. She was gamely sent out to battle the superior Bismarck because she had the speed to do it. She's a great ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IRL it was considered to be a Battlecruiser by many which is really more a light Battleship than any kind of Cruiser. Hood is a BB in game and IRL. 1 hour ago, abyssofthetriffid said: Some torps is always better than zero torps. Hood needs her torps. Hood needs new ap also its garbage. Hood is no warspite. Roma is no warspite either. Hood does just fine without it's torps. Hood's AP is not garbage. It is actually excellent. You can easily one shot DD's and Cruisers with Hood and get massive regular pen salvo's vs other BB's. If facing higher tier BB's with more armor aim for the upper belt vs the waterline for citadels. You can easily get 15-20K+ regular damage. You are right, Hood is no Warspite. It is better. You are right Roma is no Warspite. It is better. Warspite is a very good T6 BB but don't compare it to T7 and T8 BB's. I really have no clue what you are going on about? Not being an [edited]to you either. You seem to be rambling and even incoherent at times. Have you had a few while playing? LOL Edited January 31, 2018 by AdmiralThunder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
