Just started playing this this evening. Well, there went some hours. For some reason the HP system seems to work on ships, even though it works terribly on planes and passably on tanks.

So are the USSR ships worth buying? The Murmansk has a shitload of guns, plus some decent torp mounts.

So does the Japanese BB get better after the Kawachi because between being gigantic, slow, no range, slow firing and no accuracy i'm really finding it hard to see why i shouldn't sell this.

Get the B hull, it has so many secondary guns.

Yep! It was pretty neat. They took ship models from the usual anime suspects (Space Battleship Yamato, Arpeggio, that poi thing, etc) and let you drive them around in a big blue grid in space with asteroids as terrain instead of islands. Your guys shot bolts of plasma instead of shells, etc. Pretty nicely done.

Nice! April Fool's joke?

Don't worry, Rossmum. I too, bonk my head on islands in Hotspot all the time while trying to maneuver in my BB's.

Edit: I figured it out. The Amagi is a great anti-air emplacement!



It will, compared to other lower-tiered battleships, move pretty dang fast and smash planes out of the sky, or your money back guaranteed!

Earned my way into the hallowed halls of Carriers. However I am terrible at carriers. My torpedo bombers barely ever hit anything, even when I set the release point fairly well. Also I love how a single fighter squad from a tier above me can melt 2 fighter squadrons with ease.

You're right. I think there's no actual difference in fighters between the IJN and USN. I think the big difference seems to be that all the USN squadrons I fight against have 5 fighters rather than my 4.

I took a few shots near his ship, just messing about before battle was joined properly. One of them was to swap ap and he. Purposefully missing.

If you got that big of a meltdown from simply shooting near him then I need to do that more often at the beginning of a match.

Yea there were parts I didn't include. Dude actually torpedo'd me when I got close to use his smoke to hide (didn't hit him or anything, still. I was very careful about not actually damaging his ship). So he got a pink ship for a few rounds, which he of course yelled at me for. It went on for like 2 hours before I just blacklisted him.

Dude seems to be a little unstable.

You can fire a single salvo, but it takes 2x as long to reload because you have to repair the turrets.
