That's very nice, did the real Hood never get her own camo pattern?

On a related note, I recently upgraded from Fiji to Edinburgh, but I cannot find any decent looking skin for her.
Neither Tanz nor Wyvern seem to have anything for her. Are there other places to look for, or are can the Belfast skin be repurposed?

Re: World of Warships - Now Available
Not to my knowledge, Hood being the showboat of the RN got the short end of the stick on yard time.  She was due up for a major refit and was still sporting a plain gray paint when she had her fated encounter with Bismark.  Had she survived Denmark Strait she likely would have been given the same treatment as the Renown and the Elizabeths:

I'm a little torn.

On one hand that refit would have made a pretty sweet fast battleship, if a bit long in the tooth.

On the other she would have likely faded into obscurity during the war and ended up as a scrap at wars conclusion without being as famous as she is now.

 
Re: World of Warships - Now Available
I missed most of the Bismarck missions, until I started playing again on Monday. I thought I would have time to finish them and get the ship, but I only made it to the last part of stage 6 this morning before basically falling asleep in my chair. So no massive battleship for me, this time :(

EDIT: I'm dumb. I just now realized that the Bismarck is a regular tier VIII BB that I'll get eventually anyway. So I've got that going for me, which is nice.

Re: World of Warships - Now Available
Soooooo... Is anybody else playing the PvE mode? Because it's a whole lot of fun, and highly challenging.

And I'm consistently getting good and sunk, and was hoping for some moral support :)

I'm getting destroyed but it's mostly because I only am up to 5 in destroyers and they suck for that. It's also hard to convince people not to cowboy out but to hold and focus fire. If it gave more exp or money I would be more interested but for now it's just fun to do every now and then.

 
Re: World of Warships - Now Available
Perhaps a few of us HLPers should get a division together to really get those stars.
I'll be online Friday evening (eastern time), anyone else up for a good run of PVE?

What exactly is the reward for winning? I've never won one so I don't know.

Signals Flags, camo, a 10 skill Commander, and 1 day of premium depending on the number of secondary objectives you complete. The 2nd operation way less difficult compared to the 1st. Having played it several times, I haven't lost yet. Major keys to winning is having one member of the team playing CV and focus fire.
If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong

 
Re: World of Warships - Now Available
I had a fun battle in my Gneissenau yesterday.

The other team had gotten a Bismarck and Tirpitz into our cap, with a North Carolina on the way.

We had a badly wounded New Mexico trying really hard to escape. Our whole team was a little too far away to defend. I was the only one in range to do anything until they got turned around.

So I charged headlong at three tier 8s. I was going to get to torpedo range and hopefully hit the Tirpitz. But at least I could buy some time and reset until friendly bbs could get in range, while our cruisers capped.

And it worked! I got sunk pretty hard and missed the torps, but I scared the Bismarck out of the cap circle and badly hurt the NorCar. And then our two bbs came in slowly and kept resetting, and we won!

Another of Greedgamings frak-ups.

The Graf Zeppelin disaster! WG EU already started removing iChases review video from threads.
Nice way of making money WG, EU CC are silent ( or have to be), while the few american get censored on the EU forums. 

It would be nice if players would spread the word to other forums and platforms.  long version on NA and EU forums, short version: Do NOT Buy Graf Zeppelin, it is an utter broken piece of garbage and according to an post by the DEVS(!) intended this way!!!

EU still hasn't brought her servers back online, but yeah, that seems reasonable. I think I'll be taking my second boatwaifu out this weekend, farm some fire damage on the XP pinatas.

Pretty much. I've got Shimakaze and Ibuki on massage duty overtime, and my back still hurts. :pimp: :P

Also the new weapons/damage graphic effects look fidelitous!
