You don't see this handed out much anymore. Talk about rare give away.

considering how much signals costs that is a good thing.

I just dont like economic bonuses, the rest is ok.

As someone who once got 180 days of Premium time, 5000 doubloons, on top of 90 days of Premium time, multiple Premium ships, and some 1000s of extra doubloons... these new breed of SC are far, oh so very far, from being 'Super'.

This exactly.  My first YEAR of premium time was from supercontainers.  So was my Missouri and many others.  Doubloons all over the joint!  Now they are just weak sauce.  I was shocked to see how miserly WG had become.

lol I play BB's so det flags are uselss and I have almost 300 smoke flags at any one time. 

Now 50 healing flags, or fire reduction flags, those I can get on board with.

“Great! I got what I don’t want now, so I won’t get it later!”

The problem with that mindset is that there is an endless supply of what I don’t want, waiting to gush forth in torrents from the supercontainers’ bowels.

Wulf_Ace is absolutely right.  I've gotten some of the absolute dregs of "premium" ships.  They are great insurance to keep you from ever getting them again.

best way to increase the odds of getting a rare ship.

Since September 12, 2017, I have gotten 536 super containers.  12 of them contained steel.  They are indeed rare.

This right here ^^^ is basically how I ended up with gathering every single one of the rare ships over 3 xmas events starting with 2019. Happily gathering up the unpopular (and Meh!) ships to increase my odds of getting the good stuff from Santa.

I got this only ONCE  in so many years.

And for the other ones, I don't know how you do this, but I NEVER had a ship in a SC. 🥺
I'm punished for my sins probably...

Okay this submarine is for vindictive, sadistic absolute tossers. Which apparently describes me. I must admit there's something funny about watching the unavoidable, inevitable torpedo of doom that goes all of 44knots. It's coming for you!

Tsk... Not unavoidable, not inevitable. Just noobs not understanding how homing works and perpetuating the myth.

Congratulations.  🙂 

Are you going to decorate it with a Star Wars Rebel Alliance camouflage scheme?  🙂

I got Steel in successive SC's a couple years ago. Nothing interesting since except I got 1K dubs a few days ago.

Dunno, seems like it could be a bit hard to avoid the silly swarm attack of slow weak torps that come from every angle and never stop chasing

I'm not sure what the balans is supposed to be here. I guess it can get smashed by kriegsmarine subs with longer range surveillance?
