YES YES YES I Have A Makarov YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[tm63au]

Its happened, finally what i have waited for all my WOWS gaming life YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

I cant believe it I'm so emotional at this moment its hard to put words into a sentence, this is a dream come true.

I went to work today thinking how unlucky I was when I kept hearing about Makarov this  Makarov that and not knowing what was going on only to find out that WG had spammed Makarov's to just about every WOWS player that bought Xmas boxes.

I was feeling dejected as ever since the ships release I had made it my mission to sink any and every Makarov on the enemy team as I felt it was not worthy to sail with such a venerable German tech tree ship such a KMS Nurnberg.

 

But now I have one myself so now the question arises how do I sink myself and I'm just so elated to be one of the masses of community members who got this ship.

It will truly have a place in my port rusting with its hull accumulating barnacles and and other sea creatures that cling to hulls of ships and be brought out on those rare and exciting occasions like snowflakes season.

Here she is 

    

    

I cant wait set her up in her special section of my Port with all the rest of the VMF ships that I barely play .

I'm truly honoured to be part of the Makarov crowd now. 

My next mission is to get this ship 

Yes the Pan Asia Izumo, Bajie  since I FREE XP past the IJN version of the ship to save me the torment of grinding her.

    As someone who has a long played this game and has dedicated much if not most of that time to refining just how well I can either sink myself or get others to sink me I can tell you unequivocally that you are in for a treat. Just sail around broadside to the enemy team at full speed in this bad boy and you will no doubt leave the match as early as you like and likely tie some records for fastest time to lose all your HP in a ship.

Wish I got a Makarov......

As always Bama your knowledge and wisdom of words is always welcome, I shall do my best when I bring her out on those joyous snowflake occasions and do my utmost best to be the first back to port.

I'm working on 999 containers word has it once you reach that magical number it crashes either the game or just my port, so I'm putting it to the test.

Thank RNGeezus.  When that happens my Gorizia will have a partner.

I actually like my (old) Makarov. I cannot recall exactly but I think I got it as part of some grind in 2017 or maybe got it for $4.99 or something like that as a "Special Deal" in the Premium Shop. As a humble PVE player it seems to be a fun ship to play from time to time. When I do play it others sometimes ask what ship that is and that they not previously seen one. Those days are obviously over.....

[Ranari]

At the very least, it's a pretty decent ship.  It is a Nurnberg, yes, but it's got slightly better detection range and much, much better AA.

Well look at you are now part of cool kids with a Makarov

You wasted your FXP. The original might have been dysenteric chihuahua effluent, but 2020-vintage Izumo is a solid ship that I had a lot of fun playing, in both co-op AND Randoms.

Just because you enjoyed playing the Izumo does not mean the player wasted his FXP. And who are you to judge how people use their resources?

Never a truer sentence written, uplifting words of wisdom and hope for up and coming pageant contestants or those who dream the dream of one day sailing that great ship on a pixel screen. 

 You are truly a community member that knows the power of words I salute you

I have heard that but as a player that tends to need to make tactical withdrawals from time to time no aft turrets tend to be a disadvantage in such a ship.

The Lenin has been an interesting experience so far..at least ill know how to play the Izumo since its very similar, but not being able to shoot while withdrawing is a pain.

I second this. Izumo is in a pretty good place at the moment.

First rule of all-forward battleships is that thou shalt not offer thy direct aft to the enemy, for it is a juicy target that offers a direct shot through the rear citadel bulkhead with absolutely none of the protection from overmatch angles that the bow can offer against some opponents.

Angling a bit to take it on the belt is vital, and you can usually get at least two turrets to bear in those situations.

They should probably have an 'All Makarov' mode of battle. Nothing but Makarovs desperately hugging islands trying not to be one shotted.
