I have 900 doubloons in the bank so it'll cost me ~ 10 bucks. I can't find much in the way of reviews or gameplay of this ship. Any input on of if it is worthwhile?

I really haven't heard or read anything positive about the Anchorage. I have also not seen anything impressive or scary from them in game. Personally I think its a waste of time and resources unless you are specifically trying to collect all the ships. If you are doing it for collecting then definitely get it , who knows if it will ever be available again and I bet that perma camo won't be back.

434 [LZ1] murder_0ne Members 291 posts 6,188 battles Report post #7 Posted October 22, 2020 I finished out the last little bit for my Anchorage with doubloons. It's not that great. It plays like a T8 Omaha with smoke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4,232 [A-D-F] Burnsy Beta Testers, In AlfaTesters 8,038 posts Report post #9 Posted October 22, 2020 I got it but I haven't really played it much yet. At $10, if I needed a US T8 premium cruiser, I would grab it for sure. Even if it's not the best, it certainly isn't going to get any cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not bad, but there are players who complain about anything that isn’t a biasbote. 1 hour ago, Col_Nasty said: Took it out in COOP and had a blast.. no Randoms yet and I see very few there so I can't say....

925 [CK5] PrairiePlayer Members 1,462 posts 15,528 battles Report post #11 Posted October 22, 2020 Ten bucks for a T8 premiums is a good deal. The ship is certainly worth the daily win bonus and the camo alone is worth $10 IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, pretty much all the US ships tend to be that way; nothing amazing, but nothing really bad either...

1,252 [WIB] Midnitewolf Alpha Tester 3,978 posts 2,472 battles Report post #15 Posted October 22, 2020 I got the Anchorage and like her. Honestly I don't get why so many people think she is bad. She is a Tier 9 Buffalo downtiered to Tier 8 and given smoke and torps. She has a slight lower rate of fire the Buffalo and loses out on the Tier 9 upgrade slot but other than that she is a Tier 9 ship with smoke and torps to compensate for the slightly lower rate of fire and missing the upgrade slot. In reality this makes her more of a Tier 8.5 when directly compared to the Tier 9 Buffalo...for $12 or the cost of what, a Tier 4 premium? But she isn't blatantly OP so in everyone's eyes of course she sucks right? Honestly it boggles my mind. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
