181 [-NT-] celticboy27 Members 209 posts 5,218 battles Report post #5 Posted July 3, 2020 Super random question - is there a reason they didn’t put the ships name on California? Pretty strange for a premium ship, and the historical videos I’ve seen clearly have the ships name on the her badonkadonk. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

592 [CRF] sonoasailor Members 1,267 posts 10,342 battles Report post #10 Posted July 3, 2020 Should have had a gimmick on this one to make it worth it. AA is great, for what it's worth these days, but maybe she should have been given god-tier torp protection because of her extended bulges to help offset the fact she can hardly get out of her own way?

Is only lie idea was created by other nation. yep the first russian cv was 1975, so before then it never existed. so if they wanted to be accurate on cv the tier 4 russian cv would be op cuz it would have migs vs bi planes cuz the first russian cv was 1975. would follow the trend of the op russian tech line, russian cv getting migs at tier 4 vs the bi planes of other nations.

LOL I just need to learn how to game program and I could make a game like this that wouldn't have political crapships in it. I know also that they need to make money and that is what a business does, but its also very evident when they keep making stuff like this. I will just buy the 40 dollar one, and call it good. I dont need the damn Flag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
