Belfast is a go to when you are looking to carry. That ship is crazy strong. Atlanta is just super fun to play and it helps take the frustrations out of low levels of ranked.

I’ve put off playing the super ships. I don’t like the idea of tier 11, and I think the credit system is going to get very tight considering players need to buy signals now. Used to be I could net 10 combat signals fairly common in a few different areas each night to reduce the actual loss rate. That 500k can be a lot of signals. Been looking at the game this way for a while because I am reducing what I spend on the game until they pull their head out. I might get one to see just how the overhead might effect the logistics of my port because I usually break even playing T10 factoring in the service cost plus replacing the signals used each game.

@@destroyerkuroshiokai Now I like the ship, but I'm questioning if I can afford to play it much, and I've got a fair amount of credits...But..... You what I mean.

Sherman is a good random ship for farming damage. Not sold on it being viable for competitive modes but I’m going to buy it eventually, just don’t want to spend steel on it. I have concerns about the Italian line. The torps are only fit for harassment not killing selected targets and the guns have much shorter reach than to be used to farm damage reliably. Maybe the smoke can be used to farm a bit but I’m leery it’s enough to generate carry levels of impact consistently.
