I first encountered a Plymouth while in my Friesland. He had hidden behind an island and was undetected until I came around the corner. It ended quickly and not in my favor.

@FunandGameswithTerry2 жыл бұрын
Both Neptune and Seattle have higher dps. Neptune is a pure damage dealer, basically an oversized DD, Seattle is a pure support ship, and can hold her own in a T10 game. Plymouth is a bit of both, but not as good as either of them in their respective roles. Doesn't make it a bad ship, if she had Neptune's torps or Seattle's AA, she'd be op.

I enjoy my Plymouth. I got lucky with a few spins of the sonar sweep. It does its roll very well - deleting dds, and controlling objectives. Not my highest damage output ship, but holds it's own in a tier X game.

This last game would have been no problem in Minotaur. Even coming back to the game after 2 years and watching your videos on new ships I still like Minotaur. The game does seem to h\ave changed. I could control a flank alone with Mino, but without a lot of masking terrain you can’t do that anymore.
@kardy1210 ай бұрын
Just saw the ship in a bundle again - when you compare the stats with the Belfast ‘43, it seems like an uptiered ‘43 with radar 3 instead of 2, an extra barrel per turret (which is nice) and an extra torpedo, but without the DFAA and without HE shells. I think I’d rather face a t9 ship in the ‘43 than a t10 in the Plymouth…
@LiteBosmark10 ай бұрын
Imo not having HE is actually good since it forces you into the agressive playstyle that British CLs are known for. Plymouth can deal heavy damage against most ships within 8-9km, and while the lower torp power means she needs more time to kill BBs, her suite of skills make her more valuable to a team compared to Neptune.

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed as well. The additional range doesn't really mean much, since you can't really hit a DD at 9km anyway. I would have much rather had a longer duration

So I’m upset about spending lots of gold on this. I’d figure thr radar 3 would be a good thing to have, but I personally don’t like it because I don’t like The Edinburgh. I’d rather play the Neptune then this. Good video and can we get a Le Terrible Review?
@FunandGameswithTerry2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I'll hop back on the French DDs after my vacation. Plymouth isn't a bad ship per se, but there are a lot of compromises to pay for the smoke/radar/sonar combo, dps and AA being on the top of the list. Personally, I'd rather sail Seattle or Neptune as well, and now that I've said it, I'll probably have to make a video or two about that...

The dps is lower than both Seattle and Neptune, due to the T8 reload. Combined with the lack of torpedoes and AA, it's a steep price to pay for a radar and sonar.

Well, she's a Town class, technically - what the Edinburgh was supposed to be, so yes, that's what she is. Neptune and Mino are different designs altogether. The reason I'm comparing her to the Neptune is because that's the T9 tech tree alternative, and as such, if you're after a damage dealer, the better alternative.

IDK. I've got about a 70% win rate in the ship. It's very strong. DDs should just off themselves if they happen to be on the same side of the board as this cruiser. Let's say you're in a Shimakazi. Ur out there, living the three torp tubes dream. Then you run into this low visibility cruiser.. Oh ****. Let's torp the Plymouth. Nope. Plymouth has sonar. And it just landed 8-10 British cruiser AP rounds into you from a single salvo. They're slow, but man that smarts. Now you're like, run away! So you turn and blast out the engine accelerator. But you're still in range. Plymouth can't do much to Vermont at this range, but the British 6" AP works just fine on you. And two more salvos came in. Ur jamming the heal consumable, also probably trying to fix guns, torps and/or engines. So you do what any DD captain does when out of options. Pop smoke. The Plymouth burnt his sonar, so ur invisible, right? Nope. The now cocky Plymouth just flips on the radar. One (or two if not gud aim) salvo later and you are back in port. Plymouth used some of his awesome, but still has Beatty onboard and 2 super smokes, so off he goes looking for more places to spread his wretched hive of scum and villainy.
@PaulfromChicago2 жыл бұрын
But let's say ur in a Vermont. Ur living the Vermont dream. Going around, one shotting all the Smols that everyone bought last week. Putting citadels into everything else on the board like ur navy Ken Griffin. Life is good. But there's this g-d Plymouth. U ignore it, because it's only got 4 rubbish Brit torps and they're out of range. And then 16 AP hits u. 8 bounce and the rest don't do much. U keep ignoring the stupid T9 cruiser and focus on putting your freedom into Yamato's citadel. Plymouth doesn't even have HE. It's the Lipton of cruisers. Well, maybe PG Tips. He's not a Brit CA. Naturally, u off Yamato... But things are annoying. That limey is still putting AP into u. And he's found your g-d bow. Time to spread some more freedom. U target Plymouth, and Beatty immediately pops smoke before you get a salvo off. The smoke cloud is huge and Plymouth's guns are super slow. No blind firing. So time to spread freedom to the Iowa with the idiot driver. But you repeat urself, all Iowa captains are idiots. Two salvos later the smoke is gone, the Iowa is gone, ur health is 2/3 gone, and the Plymouth is still at fullish health. U put gud a salvo at the Plymouth, but he's bow tanking cause he's got 8 guns forward. U smile tho.. u got this. .Boston Tea Party time. Nope. He's got British superheal. Bags of Twinings are now coming onboard. Because Twinings also sucks. Now things are serious. Plymouth's able to bow tank. The Plymouth closes while bow tanking, and then times his next swing against the next barrage of 18 inch democracy. The 4 puny torps come in, along with more 16 AP into ur bow at close range. Another salvo and it's all over. More scum and villainy. Plymouth is the Yorkshire Gold of British ships.

T9 can be a pain. In cruisers, it can be manageable at times, but T9 BBs suffer from the big firepower jump in T10
