@Keyan_TTK Taking a new commander to Mogami and training IFHE just for that is a real pain. Especially since even if you are equipping the two rudder mods and going for evasion build, you probably still want concealment expert for the commander too.

I cheesed it by using ARP Myoukou commander but honestly, that fact is quite annoying. While I understand the monetisation benefit to WG for making respecs not free, I do think the game's health would be better overall if you could respec freely. People would experiment more and feel less constrained by artificial non-combat restrictions like that.

I couldn't agree more. My IJN Cruiser commander hit 14 pts a bit after I got Mogami, so I picked IFHE and he's still on Mogami, while 10-pts ARP Takao continues the grind upwards with Ibuki (and towards Zao). I also used the respecs discounts to make it less painful. My Mogami commander now has PT/AR/DE/CE/IFHE/EM.

I do wish I could respec more freely. Sure, there are tools like Aesis' Fitting Tool that can help you from the numbers side, but it doesn't tell you if you can make it work.

Also I grinded a 14-pts commander for Cleveland, so I know how much a slog it is.

On the old school tangent, remember this version of Islands of Ice? I really enjoyed this more than the current version we have.

I have never been in a match where someone scored Clear Sky and shoot down 98 goddamn planes down.


This was an AS Hakuryu with 4 fighters and Midway had no chance.

@hidahos
Congrats!

(May I suggest using imgur to post your pics? At least you'll get bigger, more readable pictures instead of these tiny thumbnails...)

An map with cover? What is this heresy?
I don't really have good memories of this map, probably because I played it with underleveled commanders on T8 Premiums.

[M.A.Mitscher]

@Keyan_TTK I saw that map quite a lot. I was of course much newer and I got schooled hard there. I still remember playing Stock Pre-Buff Colorado, ambushing a Yamato around an iceberg, only to see my shells bounce off. The Yamato just slowly turned away, laughed in chat, and obliterated me.

I had a lot of fun and harsh matches this map, matches that really drove the point home, "Maybe that isn't a good idea to do anymore." I still prefer this map than what we currently have. It looks like a playground with lots of stuff to try, the current one looks like a playground with only one slide, and that's it.

Reason i remember that map is when Taiyaki uptiered me from 5 to 10, luckily kamikaze is OP so even in a lose i had good results.

[M.A.Mitscher]

@WtBlaze Umikaze vs Yamato? WHO YA GOT?

[WtBlaze]

Nah worst part of that match was my kamikaze commander had torp acc and conc expert, so i had a .2km stealth fire range, still nearly got stop score, course, this was before radar.

@M.A.Mitscher I wish we could get that version of island of ice back. It was so much better than the current one.
