81 [EINER] KampfKopf Beta Testers 87 posts Report post #5 Posted November 27, 2020 Why TF would I want "black" versions of ships that I already have? Ships that I didn't have to GAMBLE for in the first place? Pfhhhh, lotsa dry, leftover turkey is all I see here. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4 [CIAO] Red_Fox_Six Members 1 post 4,672 battles Report post #6 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) There is no convert XP bonus on this Black Friday sale....It was all the times before I believe. Why on BLACK FRIDAY would you limit your potential income, and leave out something as minor as that. ALSO with Black Friday (15%) and Clan discount (15%) the total is 30% off Tier X ship, this is NOT the case.... Example - Yamato is 20,600,000 million regular price At 30% off total the total should be 14,420,000, yet in the game it is 17,510,000 THUS your Clan discount and the Black Friday discount will not stack Edited November 27, 2020 by Red_Fox_Six 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4,028 [KWF] warheart1992 Members 5,585 posts 6,897 battles Report post #7 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) WG: "Jean Bart is to be removed due to excess popularity" Also WG a few months later: " exciting Black Friday containers with a chance to drop Jean Bart Black! Armory bundle with Jean Bart Black". Well milked, well milked indeed. But hey, as long as one can combo artificial scarcity with RNG lootboxes to hell with balance, ships being too popular etc. Edited November 27, 2020 by warheart1992 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

7 [-BSS-] jgerbsjr Members 1 post 16,536 battles Report post #15 Posted November 27, 2020 I just bought the Jean Bart B, which I thought included a combat mission which gives you 2500 gold and 25000 coal for 5 victories IN THE JEAN BART B. Lo an behold, the combat mission is for the Jean Bart only, and not for the Jean Bart B. Since I do not have the Jean Bart, this combat mission is totally useless for me. By the way, I would not have bought the Jean Bart B if I had know the combat mission did not apply to it. Very misleading. The description should be much clearer. What a disappointment. 2 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
73 [GIR] MalgusKerensky Members 90 posts 11,867 battles Report post #16 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Shame that there was no doubloom or premium time deals! While I love the look of the Black painted ships, the fact they are not usable in special missions or campions makes them little more than pretty things to display in port... Sadly jgerbsjr it has been that way since the first black painted ships were released... WG is good at hiding important details.

I type "Black Friday 2020 WOWS" and this shows up. I guess that's where the confusion came in. Still disappointing to see past years gave lots of goodies and this year not so much.

Yes it showed up after I went into game and only afterwards did it show up in the browser Armory Version, Still that only gives the option of buying for myself,Buying anything other than the current Black Friday event other than or the current ships isn't an option for when buying for a friend,Buying previous Black Friday ships for a friend is not an option Edited November 27, 2020 by shadowsrmine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10 [T-D-M] M_113 Members 68 posts 18,501 battles Report post #21 Posted November 27, 2020 Thank you for the Black Friday full bundle option, patience has allowed me with one sweep of the sickle to harvest a whole passel of ships. I have many missions to run now and will be able to post Black Commanders of the Fleet, Division and Squadron to their respective ships. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3 austinXmedic ∞ Members 1 post 2,339 battles Report post #22 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) It's so great to have a combat mission for regular JB when its impossible to get that ship, why would you not make it for Jean Bart Black?

Because it’s meant as compensation for owners who already have the Jean Bart since the B ships are duplicates. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
