I think best we could do is spread and share these stories, so that all Captains would see the need of destroying some Land-guns.

..it wasn't a typo writing SS4 I meant the fourth SS you could build at level 92. The first three have those auto secondaries but the fourth lack any other weapons than torps. It's a great sub for sure, but in some battles I've been only too slow and did the scouting for long range ships and couldn't get a point. damn...

[...]i want to add that one advantage of SN ships is their high fire rate. Most ships, including CA41, DD50 and many BBs have four turrents with three barrels, making a great boardside damage as well as flexible shooting angle.

However, the setback of such arrangement is the lower range and shell damage compared to BB in other nations that use larger calibre guns with great damage penetration against thick armour.[...]

I'd say SN BB50 is best of that level and quite easy to play.  Not that high level player myself bit looking foreward to the big BB.

👍🏻

I think some of you might already trying their best to get drunk, or planning the next year's competitions or targets wherever or whatever those would be.

It's best time to review, what last year's highs and lows had been.
...startet NF in February, days and nights were so much fun with lots of you and attacks came in 24/07😁

Then there had been those Asian fleets that always attacked with multiple attacks and we were nearly not even able to fight our own fights...🤔

..the dude calling himself World-King, who messed up our chats and invited all the girls in his own harems-group! 😂

the upcoming of naval-creed that made several players leave (but some came back already...

..that TK-issue...

...and some troubles still to be discussed, or put aside...

There has been so many hours we've spend together, fighting together.
 so many joyful moments...
 And I'm looking forward to what next year will bring. Somehow we will survive.

Wish you all the best for 2018 fair winds and following seas.

(And beside NF: Joy, Health and Love and that some wishes may come true...)
 

edit: "read" from bottom to top

I just got the info that this bug has been reported already.

And be assured, there are steel rewards, star-points and captains-exp even if its not shown.

Agree, it's a hard Daily Quest to complete, not only winning all 5 battles, but staying alive as well.. [...]

Not only hard but bugged. Even if the task was "win 5 in a row staying alive" the counter should get reset if sunk and winning and not go back to 1.

[....]PD: But shouldn't be that hard for an IronMan[...]

Will do my very best captain, but most of the time I'm playing ships with untrained crews. Only for the daily "sinking subs" and "shoot down aircrafts" I get out my DD50/SS4...

However: If the task was meant to be "win 5 in a row staying alive"  it should give you more than 2gold (guess it was that "much")

Ahoi, whenever I got sunk but my team got the victory, the counter of the daily quest "Win great battle in a row" was reset to 1.

So I would have to win 5 in a row and stay alive (in the last four of them). 😧That's hard...

Totally agree with Bombona about the promised tournament.

And that "limited" Battles of that first tournament might bear a solution to have more fleets participating in everydays-WoF. There should be some kind of Setup when you sing in for War:

- total ships

- available/forbidden classes

- maybe ships per class

Maybe with less points with restrictions and full points for "without-limitations".

...however, there still other reasons not to fight in WoF, since most captains dislike Fleet-Hopping...

There are many good points in your logical arguments. Thinking twice, maybe you are right and team should just have a better awareness...

👍🏻

However it's frustrating when you're in the sub and have to come for the capture zone (that was the reason why they where developed) in second half of the battle, but the enemy has all possibilities to stay well away from you. Zone was build to bring all enemies closer together and not only those without land-guns. 😣

(btw KM SS4 has no Surface Arms at all)

First to say, i really like the new result pages. With sunken ships included, and name of the ship thats been in the battle. 

For the result of harbour attack, i miss the captains name and maybe his/her fleet. I think it would be nice to have it in the results. We all love tontake and share screenshots 😄

Ahoi, I've noticed that if there are landbased guns in the capture zone, they would gain control of the zone for your team, when there is no ship inside the zone.

That would make it hard for single SS to gain control, and easy for BB to avoid the SS if the guns are on BB-Team.

I think it's a bug and not a feature...

edit: see the pic with all ships out of control zone, but the BB will capture the zone by the land-guns and the SS and DD will loose that battle if they chase the BB

I knew there are worthy prem ships and my opinion not to suggest any prem ships was meant for km only, so maybe it was wrong to post it in here. Sorry for not being straight to follow. 

However:

Shiptrees, and the prem ships within, need some makeover i guess.

[...]. Maybe some months ago being available at such low level ( 55 ) it was interesting, now at level 79 and with it's actual stats..

This SS is NOT worth it nowadays, you come from the level 68 HEI Type I with 9k hull, 163 oxigen and 8 bow launchers, to find at level 79 the Kai-Kou Type with 11k hull, 178 oxigen, 6 bow launchers.. ( Okay, the Kai-Kou has 2 scout planes, but still.. )

[...]

While the extra oxigen is very important, the hull increase is not that much and you lose 2 torpedos. [BEN: I'd say swap 2 torps for scouts that no other nations' SS has!]

. if we compare the Kai Kou with the I 400 the situation is even worse for the Kai Kou, the I 400 has 15k hull 178 oxigen, 8 bow torpedos, and cost steel instead of gold..

[...] but I'm sure it would need some kind of rework, as right now I don't think it is worth of that valued gold.

Agree to all of that, but it would be true for several nations and not only SS but most prem-ships!

They've been a great advantage when they were abailable at the same level as lower level-ships. but in the new system there's not many prem ships recommend to buy. (if not for exp-bonus)

.[...]Lets said that only top lvl DD,CL,CA,SS,CV,BB (lvl 100, 110, 120) are allowed with a new sort of regards.

I'd say that kind of battle already exists and it's called WoF. 😉

🤔

But to be serious: Limited use of repair kits and smoke would be nice. I don't think that there's a need for more than the three existing levels of online battles (beginner, expert, great) at least not at the moment.

Better focus on an even matchmaking and review the WoF-modalities. There are several good suggestions to be found in here.

Actually you don't have to restart the game, but have to change nation (re-log the nation)

Thanks for the report, we will consider to fix it ASAP...😄

... ASAP is such a good phrase... 😉

...would be really nice to have such a button. 

...as was suggested before...

Ahoi,

I think it would be nice to have a small notification (little number on red like on chats or achievements) on the "Daylie task-button" whenever you finish one.

That would be nice on the ships-icon down left in the harbor as well, once one of your crew members is ready to train.

Thank you.

Thanks devs to add new daily tasks on sinking SS and aircrafts, teaching DD/CL/CA players to focus more on field management!

May be the tutorials should teach more about those tactics and not only how to hit with gun and torps...

Those tutorials might give some hints about what task for which class in a mixed taskforce...

Agreed on both.

I think their stats had been increased some weeks ago. 

And I can remember endless discussions about hunting SS until the battle timed out. That's what the capture zone was made for. Maybe that one needs to be decreased in size every minute... 🤔

Yes, and yes...

...both setups would work and it's hard to tell wich is better. I'd say start with engine 3 and switch to bulge-armour when it's expert or better veteran crew. your speed will have increased and with the added armour and crew-bonus you'll also be able to eat some torps, without getting sunk.

😮...wow, that's been lots of work. Thanks for sharing, well done!👍🏻

...even when I can't find the respect you've claimed in your answer, I don't think you've understood the message.

It's not KM Shipsnames what's offending, but glorifying the hero's of the third Reich while denying their crimes.

At least it's against the law where I live, and in my case it is offending as well and that would go with the rules to report them. And yes, that's what I will do.

If we don't, that would only draw more people saying foolish praises and phrases, most of them wouldn't even understand the meaning. And that would draw more of those ppl to the game.

I'd like to play without idiots denying facts of history and no: I have no trauma, I'm just educated and enjoying diversity and tolerance instead of aggressions and ignorance.

[...].I can, perhaps, add my experience to Neuner’s point. I too got my 1 of 2 on stage one (where I remain) at the very beginning of a 2 week cycle, right after ranking rewards were given. If it is a ratio, and does start tabulating on that cycle, it should be very easy to test. I look forward to doing so when the current cycles restarts in a day or so.

Lets pretend there is a counter, it wasnt reset with the tournament cycle this morning. I made three Battles and won them all, but my Master of Mankind is still on 2

At the moment it seems that no captain can send his application to us. We (Leaders or Chief) have to be online and see that captain in global chat. We can sent him an invitation and he will get a tab for 10 sec where normally the "join battle" tab appears to "join fleet".

...well that could be done better I guess...

I find myself wondering if the fast CL and and new DD50 are going to make upgrading the secondary weapons worth while.

If you meant to say: Use secondaries against those fast-ships - they aren't that useful, as long as those bitches keep their distance. Even secondaries fire at a high elevation so that those grenades will only hit the wake...
