A Wyoming or Myogi will crush an Ishizuchi one on one so beware. Don't waste your time trying to AP them. Decent speed for its tier though.

The Hipper is a good boat and Prinz Eugen is just a Hipper + lodesemone + commander exp so it, too is a good boat.

Thanks for the gift HooterStump. It turned out to be a Lo Yang. Kind of ironic to get it right after the German DDs come out though.

This is why I stopped after getting the Kutuzov. I was actually hoping to get premium time or a Nikolai/Gremy but after the Kutuzov I was like "ok it's all downhill from here".

I'm still coming out equal in terms of money though - 5x 2500 from the Ishis and 1x 2000 = 14500 doubloons.

If I add the 180 days of prem from my first 4 boxes I'm still ahead.

But I had hoped for the doubloons from one of the expensive ships like an Eugen or at least Dragon Flags.

Seems like there are a massive number of people getting multiple ishis or emdens. At least you get a higher number of doubloons as compensation for multiples.

Honestly the 3 dollar container is where it is at, because of the good chance of dragon flags. 5$ container gives you too many lovely camos.

8 x admirals

3000 dubs

Ishizuchi

And 150ish camos

Could've been better, but how bumped up are the chances for an Ishi when everyone is getting them. It's like they have a whole warehouse of unsold Ishizuchis and they are trying to offload them in grab bags.

I hate how they're giving Nikolais away on the five dollar box ones, because I want one but I don't have money to just throw nilly-willy at uncertain odds until I get one.

I mean, didn't they say they were never going to sell the ship again because it was so broken in divisions in the hands of players who actually knew what they were doing? Putting the drat things in a box for five dollars is just selling the ship in a different way.

I got an Emden, a Prinz Eugen, a gently caress load of special camos a couple thousand doubloons and I think I might have gotten 250 Damage Control IIs. That might have been a super container, I'm not sure.

The Emden seems pretty useless. What is the point of a Tier 2 Premium? Is it really good at seal clubbing or something?
