1,662 [CALM] YamatoA150 Beta Testers 6,838 posts 6,088 battles Report post #11 Posted September 9, 2016 Guess this means one OR two things: 1. Possibly expect a forum competition for PAX Camo Prinz Eugen, like what was done for Marblehead. As it appears to be exactly a Hipper, just bigger, then there isn't anything advantageous to entice sales for. 2. Possibly expect sales of a non-PAX Camo Prinz Eugen in the near future, just like Marblehead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

999 [4HIM] Morpheous [4HIM] Beta Testers 2,285 posts 20,052 battles Report post #14 Posted September 9, 2016 Now get a Vittorio Venetto and we got something to spend some money on!! Don't leave the Italians out like you did in WoT, where they actually had more complete tank lines than the French, Japanese, Czech, ummm Swedes, er Chinese... on NM...please don't do this in WoWS. I mean come on now, Italy's fleet was bigger than Germany and France's combined!! (not counting subs) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3,862 RedSeaBear Members 5,454 posts 21,213 battles Report post #18 Posted September 9, 2016 FB..? Yes FaceBook, sorry I'm used to the short hand abbreviation. Wargaming regularly runs give aways on their page. Last week it was for the Prince Eugen. I won a Warspite from one of their contest back last September. Its worth following their page for the contests. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

129 [WOLFB] Land_Warrior Beta Testers 247 posts 5,261 battles Report post #20 Posted September 9, 2016 I got one from entering one of the competitions on twitter they were running all weekend. I didn't expect to get her at all but I was so happy to have! Now I don't have to grind to Hipper (where I was planning on stopping anyway). Just one thing though; if people ask how I got her am I allowed to say? I had lots of people in my first game with her thinking I was a tester and I kept my mouth shut because I didn't want to say anything I wasn't permitted to. Even though I heard the NDA was lifted I just wanted to be safe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last, why stop at the Admiral Hipster? Roon is a monster, and the Hindy is the same ship with an extra turret. I love both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
