I'm still enjoying the line, it's a good allround combo imo. Yes, radar & sonar are pretty commonplace these days, but for me, that hurts the USN DD line, which had the good smokes as gimmick, a lot more. I tend to use the radar/smoke combo to get an edge over other DDs, but as with anything these days, half the battle is to know what your target is capable of. And in the occasion of some battleships pushing a flank without screens, she can still be quite effective in just defending from stealth.

It's easy to notice after the battle, mistakes happens.

@@argonaut5520 I noticed the moment it happened in the battle. Not ragging on him, but the decision did not make strategic sense to me at the time he did it. I was hoping he could explain to me what he was thinking because I find it interesting to understand decision patterns different than my own and learn from them.

@@ignatius_rage I know, that's why I said that..not judging.

I tend not to drop bot carriers from range, there's a good chance they "magically" know torps are coming and start moving. Kinda default for me, I only torp them close up. But you're correct, tactically, it would have been the better decision.

@@FunandGameswithTerry hi Terry! Hope you are well. Now I understand what you were thinking. I have found that the bot cvs won’t run from torps if nobody has gotten within the magic radius which causes them to start moving. That’s why in situations where I can’t charge the bot cv, I will deliberately launch torps from a distance to keep from triggering them to start their run and thus ensure reliable torp hits.

I've got Chung Mu, and it's a pretty linear progression. But I'll go for Jinan before getting my first T10 DD.

I found myself in same quandry... When Swedish dds appeared I stopped working the PanAsian and never went back, stopping at t7 I think(?) Then a dozen new lines later... Maybe someday ....

I can't really explain it, but I enjoy the multirole setup. This line, for me, has made USN DDs obsolete. Jinan is definitely what I'm working towards primarily, though.

I see them as a "better version" of USN DDs. Instead of the mostly useless defAA and largely power-crept smokes, they get radar and better torps, while still retaining the overall general-purpose DD nature

I've been on/off this line for a bit, but I quite enjoy the DW torps. I find that they change my mindset, I don't even _think_ about using them on DDs, which can often give me a couple seconds head start while they decide if they want a gunfight or launch torps.

I'm playing on NA on my personal, Asia on Press

I know he reviewed the Hsien Yang and the Lo Yang. He also occasionally mentioned this ship in passing on other videos

I've done Hsien Yang, Lo Yang, and Fen Yang, but not Yue Yang before :)

@@FunandGameswithTerry oh

And Fushun! You did that one too, the best tier 6dd :) could be the best even tier x with a little bit of help :)

Worcester is a pretty linear progression from Seattle. Faster guns, same arcs, same utility, better stats. If you enjoy Seattle, Worcester is more or less the T10 version of it (with still best-in-game AA). The legendary module is worth it imo, no downsides - you get range, dispersion (doesn't really matter at that fire rate) and AA range (which is good, since you already have a massive range). Personally, I wouldn't spend free XP to skip ahead on a grind, unless it's a terrible one, like Izumo. Seattle is a very good T9 for me, so I'd probably recommend using some boosters to accelerate your grind, and save the free XP for the legendary module. If you don't like Seattle, and want to skip, Worcester isn't that different... same style, just better stats.

@FunandGameswithTerry so I guess just keep grinding for it. Thanks a lot Terry. I'm actually a battleship main, this is a little different playstyle for me. I told you about the maxed out Monty and Iowa, with all maxed APCS etc and legendary module you should try. Really something great. Thanks

Easy, Nevsky. Petro is a terrible ship imo, she has the armour of a cruiser, with the manoeuvrability and size of a battleship. Nevsky is a pretty good HE spammer, and at least has some measure of utility. As usual, my 2c 😁

thanks you so much! have a great rest of your day!@@FunandGameswithTerry

It's a fun ship. Not grind priority (I tend to lose focus too much, and I really want a Jinan) but definitely going to get it one day.
