Look how sexy of a Destroyer she is, looks like a pocket Fletcher! Used my meager supply of gold provided by Wargaming from the captain respec thing to put some nice premium camo on it, along with as many signal flags I could stomach. Now this is how a Destroyer should look, sleek and deadly. This thing is an absolute beast, it has some of the best guns I have ever seen, rotate so fast that I don't have to worry about swinging this thing around while I'm dancing through shells. And amazingly enough the torpedoes are actually decent! I never had use for them on the Mahan, could have upgraded but didn't, now I'm glad to have them to torp oblivious Scharnies with. Had hell of a first match, made me fall in love with the ship immediately. Was divisioned up with a person I met in an earlier game, hell of a player. So yeah, I look forward to setting some higher tiered ships ablaze. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not kidding, you'll absolutely shred people who disrespect you. Those normalization buffs really helped USN DD guns out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
