What ship is you're work horse and why?

[GUNSTAR_THE_LEGEND]

The North Carolina is my go to ship to work myself out of a funk or when I have had a bad week and just want to take out my frustration.  I have played over 800 battles in it and tallied almost 1,000,000 exp to be able to free up so this ship is my workhorse it always pulls good numbers and never lets me down.  At tier VIII the North Carolina gets put into a wide variety of MM so i can get tested by having to take on the highest tiers or take on lower tier ships that i can dominate but you cant take lightly because they are still dangerous so no relaxing on my part.  The North Carolina to me  is the perfect ship in that it is a well rounded ship capable of filling any role other than that of a CV.

New Mexico and the Omaha i choose both since i do really well in both of them, i don't know why i do good in them maybe i got bonked on the head and finally found a few ships I'm decent in

[paradat]

I think for me it is becoming the Scharnhorst. This ship does everything and makes good credits. It may become my top credit grinder.

[Legendary_Typo]

Murmansk, one of the two premium ships I have that can actually make credits, the other being a Marblehead, which of course is worse than the Murmansk.

[IronWolfV]

It's become Scharnhorst without a doubt. Though another workhorse which is coming through is Indianapolis.  I actually seem to be spending a lot of time at tier 7.

Saipan. Because it's impossible to have a bad game in it. P2W ships are nice 

 

[Serge_SC]

PENSACOLA!!!

 

Although lately I had switched to the Nagato, and trying to do it on the Scharnhorst, Shchors, Bayern and Amagi.

 

I think I don't have one.

[Crucis]

My go-to ship right now is the Arizona. 

[StrykerNC]

Until the T5 MM hammer dropped, it was the Konigsberg.  200+ battles, 20k avg damage, and enough citadels per game to make me smile.

 

Up next is the Scharnhorst.. Rapidly becoming a favorite.

[TTK_Aegis]

Tirpitz. I love that ship. Great gains on credits and free XP and I just click with her gameplay extremely well. I'm a cruiser deleting machine in that thing. 

[Crucis]

Murmansk, one of the two premium ships I have that can actually make credits, the other being a Marblehead, which of course is worse than the Murmansk.

 

Before the great AFT nerf, the Marblehead used to be one of my favorite go-to ships.  But since the nerf, the 12.7 km gun range has really killed this ship for me.

And the people say "Amen"....

Same for me. Oddly enough, it's replacing my Tirpitz right now, dealing more average damage (94k vs 81k) and slightly more average xp (1824 vs 1756) though the battle count is still much less (20 vs 197). I'm currently using Scharnhorst as my captain trainer where I hope to get my 15th captain point before I start playing Gneisenau, which I just bought yesterday and my captain is about to get the 13th point. I already have a 16 point captain on my Tirpitz but I like having his specialty on the Tirpitz, it's of sentimental value to me

​Still does well when it's top tier or at least middle tier, but it's a bit of a pain when you're one of a few tier Vs in a tier VII match, it can't even compete with a few of the same tier cruisers because of it's range.

[SandraSmiles]

My goto boat is typically the Atlanta...but I've SchamHeist gets the job done alot easier.  

Expecting Dunkerque will also secure the borders when I get a 15 pointer admiral for her.

There is no such thing as being middle tier for tier 5 anymore since tier 4 is limited to +/-1.

[WriterDude]

 

I've got a few that I love to play, and a few that I'm successful with, so this isn't a simple answer. I'm successful with the Isokaze, Kaiser, Phoenix, and Fuso (all 60% WR or better). 

 

But loving to play? I love to play the Bayern with that torpedo damage reduction. Love to play the rear-turret KM cruisers - Konigsberg and Nurnberg - although I'm not very good with them. (Actually, I like all of the KM cruisers, currently grinding the Yorck.) I also love the Budyonny, the Colorado, the Warspite.

Problem I have with the Marblehead now, she suffers the same problem Pensacola has. She has worse concealment than her gun range. So unless you have a captain with CE, you're always spotted before you can open fire.

 

Really wish this pathetic 12.7km range gets turned into say 13.7 or 14.

[Balck_]

My BB's.  It's what I enjoy the most.  Though I always revert to Minekaze for some R&R or to break losing streaks.

[ckupf]

sorry to be like this but you mean "your*"

 

Scharnhorst is quickly becoming my new workhorse, but Blyskawica is still my most played (got about 1.3M xp on her). I have had several go to ships as I became a better player. My first workhorse was the Minekaze (with some Kamikaze thrown in later) then the Anshan. Colorado, is probably my most played BB, and the Atlanta, Marblehead, and Ishizuchi are a trio of premiums that have gotten a lot of play at various points in my playing of this game.

[NightHawkS117]

Recently I would say the Amagi or Mutsuki. because even on the games I dont do well Im still having fun and helping the team( my worst game so far with the amagi was I think 60k damage... but I tanked alot of damage to help the team).

[kerensky914]

Don't really have one.  Probably need one, as I get into too many bad streaks. ;)

​Shh.... I'm a forgetful person.

[Hunter_Steel]

For me personally, that's Scharnhorst and Gnevny. These two ships are my go-to relaxation ships, considering that it's gotten harder to land torp hits in my Kamikaze right now. But these two do not disappoint, ever.

The Marblehead desperately needs to have about the same gun range as the Murmansk.  When you compare the Marblehead to the Murmansk, the Murmansk is better in every respect except one.  The Marblehead as one more (casement) gun per broadside.  But the Murmansk has better AA, better torps, better gun range.  Just an all around better CA.   If the Marblehead could at least have the same gun range, the other weaknesses wouldn't seem as bad, because the extra gun combined with a useful gun range would feel like it made up for the other stuff. 

 

But right now, it's just a dog waiting to be whipped when it ends up in tier 7 battles.  Honestly, I only run it in coop battles these days since I know that the bots will close the range enough that my Marblehead's guns can come into play without being massacred while trying to close to gun range.
