Grinding the Japanese and German BB line is proving a challenge....as is US carriers. Stuck midway through the Bogue grind and I hate using it...

So far, I'm finding the Spee an interesting ship.  She's a little tricky, though not on the level of Atlanta and Yubari.  She's surprisingly tank-y, and her secondaries are not bad.  But, she's sluggish and a touch slow with dispersion that could be better, and her torpedoes kinda feh (though they do offer AMAZING coverage).  Her main guns are odd to me though.  For what they are, I find them lacking in power.  Take the same shot with Shiny Horse (using just one turret), and I will do more than with Spee using both.  I still need more time with her though. :)

Yeah, that probably got him reported by more than a few folks, on both sides. :)  My issue happens to be when I go from Lady Lex back down to Bogue or Indy.  I sometimes run out of planes before I realize it. :bhead

If you end up enjoying Indy, you should like Ranger.  Quite a few more planes with her. :)  Strike...even though it's not anywhere near as good as it used to be, is still the Dark Side. :P

Welp, picked up Taiho today, and she's proving to be interesting indeed.  Had to upgrade her fighters right away though. heh  It came down to Montana, Taiho or Essex.  A doozy, since I also really want Montana. :)  I might actually finish off the IJN line, but Montana is very close. :x

Oh for the love of... The new skill tree. :bhead  It's a nightmare having to retrain so many captains. :bhead  On a side note, I do like how there are more specific skills for CV's.  I don't overly like the T1 skill choices however, and the nerf to the BB's catapult fighter...  Who ever though that was a good idea needs to be beaten with a sac of oranges. :furious

I tired the new IFHE (Inertia Fuse for HE) skill on Atlanta, and I am kind of on the fence about it.  Her captain isn't quite high enough for 2 4pt skills yet, so it's either AFT or IFHE.  The loss of firing range...ew.  I forgot she had an 11k range on her by default. :noid

Pretty much comes down to: Want to be Tank-y or a Glass Cannon?

Definitely have to give this some time.

Re-speccing 20+ captains  not all that enjoyable. Can't say I'm really a fan of the new skill tree. Meh, I'll adapt.

If you have a captain that can do it, take DE AND IFHE and you will only have a base loss of 1%, if you want to maximize damage.  Toss in the India X-Ray and you've dropped the overall chance to .5% to 0%, depending on gun caliber.

Since cata fighter on CA's was not nerfed to hell, I find the Direction Center skill very useful on my CA's.  So pretty much, any CA that can use a cata fighter, get's DC, and ones that cannot, get Preventative Maintenance.

As for Priority Target, I just don't see that skill super useful to me.  I won't argue that the little bit of extra information is useful (being targeted), but since I ALWAYS assume that I'm being targeted the moment I get "DETECTED" popping up on my HUD, it's a waste of a skill point for me.

Only played a few games yesterday after doing my skills. Gonna need time to see what works and why doesn't. Really want IFHE on my Aki, may have to spend some free xp to push him up :).
  What's your thoughts on RPF? To me, seems like an solution to a nonexistent problem. Of course, as DD lover, I may be biased. I did put it on a number of my DD's.

I haven't bothered with that skill just yet.  I rather have AFT on a BB than RPF, for better AA defense.  On something like Atlanta though, I can see it being useful in hunting DD's.  But there is CE in that line as well.  AFT+CE is still a good combo after all, especially on DD gunboats.  Sure, no more invisi-fire (which was a joke), but doesn't actually make it all that less useful as a combo.  Course CE+RPF might be the go-to.  We'll see. :)
