Is there any official word on what will happen with owned Japanese DDs once they change?

[BruDog1970]

I currently have a Minekaze and a Mutsuki.  Both are researched, bought, and sitting in my port.

The Mutsuki is going to be downgraded to a tier V DD when the changes are made.

Does this mean they will "trade" my Mutsuki and give me the Fubuki (tier VI in same DD line)?

Will I just get hosed and have two tier V DDs instead of a V and a VI?

 

What happens if I have a Hatsuharu researched, but not bought:

Would the exp now go towards another ship (the new VII - forgot the name)?

Would the exp be lost?

 

I have seen plenty of speculation, but nothing official.  

I would think there would be some word about this as the new line seems to be coming "soon."

[Trubil]

not yet

[paradat]

Not yet, but there will be. From my experience WG is typically very fair when they make these sort of changes.

[Rissien]

So far only guesswork based off of what they have done with previous ships and tanks from WoT.

[NightHawkS117]

idk. Hope it is something good, I just researched the Hatsuhara. so I am eager to see the changes.

[LordCorellon]

if its anything like WoT you will get the tier ship that you had if you have one moved. My fubuki will be dropping to 6, so the kagero is taking its place, I "should" get the kag. If you have a ship that is on the split, you usually get that ship and the split(they did that with the KV's I remember)

 

 

But its a ways off anyway, and like said above, WG is fair on that respect, and will let us know

You won't lose progress.

I'm hoping I get to keep my Hatsuharu and her captain after the changes are made.

[Captain_Dilbert]

I'm not all that concerned what I will end up with for ships (currently have the Isokaze, Minekaze, Hatsuharu, and Fubuki) but more concerned (maybe anxious is a better word) what will happen with the captains and retraining.  I'm kind of expecting to get 2 additional ships from the change (the Kagero at T8 to replace my T8 Fubuki and the Mutsuki at T5 because my Minekaze is moving to the subline) so I hope I have the opportunity to move my captains around (by then both my Fubuki and Minekaze will be 15 point captains) without retraining penalties.  

 

Overall I'm excited for the new ships.

[Hualalai]

My question is, I have the Kagero, been saving EXP to get the Shimakaze.  Should I try to buy it, I wonder, or wait until after the switch so I can use the ship EXP on the new tier 9 DD?

 

And, I sold the Mut a long time ago, wonder if I should buy it back.

[centarina]

I would wait, except may be for kagero for t9 if they have it on sale.      with all the changes, you never know what you will end up with.
