It might be pretty fun do build, too! But the code, very important. Is the Smith even good? Or do you get a pretty cool looking CV model and a free port slot.

964 [PLPT] SergeantHop Members 4,435 posts 6,599 battles Report post #9 Posted July 29, 2016 Yep, three single 10 or so second reload torpedoes, 4.5km range. Zip around a battleship and constantly torpedo it. I'm strongly considering buying that model just for the Smith, because I want it. Bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On paper it sucks, but in practice, its a insanely fun little derp-boat. Get it. You wont be sorry lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
