SureBridge Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 There are a number of cruisers that are good against BB's and weak against other ship classes - the PA cruiser line springs to mind (although the "chump" at T7 is one of the worst IMO). I expect we will see a lot of torpedo cruisers and high-DPM fire starters, and a number of the CA's will do reasonably well without the worry of DD's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a world without DDs, Cruisers control vision and thus have the initiative. There's a lot of things you can do when you have vision control over an engagement. Also, at T7 there are some very strong CAs that can go toe-to-toe against BBs of the same tier, for example Myoko and Yorck have great survivability. Other Cruisers can make good use of smoke (RN, PA)... you just need to understand how to play to your ship's strenght. Oh, I forgot another practical advantage... you'll probably insta-queue matches on Cruisers while BBs will very likely have to wait some time to enter matches.

Just be careful when unmasking your full broadside, the temptation to get you full 10 guns on target is strong and a savvy BB captain will be waiting for that moment. If you stay well angled, you'll be fairly resistant to 380mm and even 406mm will bounce off your thicker plates. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermore135 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 If Scharnhorsts are still prevalent, Yorck is extremely strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Type_93 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Playing Maya and smashing BBs. If you’re dying in cruises, stop showing broadside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mashed68 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 When I see que's like this it really makes me wonder why they cap the number of BB's per game. That could be 200+ people firing away at each other happy as can be instead of waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letting moar bbabbies in wouldn't maintain, even the illusion of balance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry memory lapse, I meant the German T7 CA, Yorck... The Shchors is the Russian CL that gets citadelled if sneezed on. It's been at least a couple years since I played T7.

Sambo_Cigars Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) *All* my brawls had 2 battleships and 4 cruisers in both teams. This is no coincidence, particularly since there are always more battleships in queue than cruisers. So, the answer to the question is that the participants are guinea pigs in an experiment WG is conducting.

Utt_Bugglier Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Mmmm… might be time to shake down the T7 Italian cruiser that was I picked up in the Kitakami progression. (I stopped there - no Kitakami or Defence.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it’s not a coincidence. 2 BBs and 4 cruisers per team is guaranteed per the rules of the current brawl. https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/game-updates/update-131-lunar-new-year/#brawls Edited February 13 by Nevermore135 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we'd be fine with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
