I dont think I am gonna use it..until there is a need..not sure why.. I always prefer the normal tech tree ship. Exception the Missouri.

I've done nothing but suck in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once the fad is over the only people who will pay it are those that don't have a better premium ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
766 [LNA] legionary2099 Member 2,342 posts 18,977 battles Report post #9 Posted July 6, 2018 (edited) Like i dont understand , the hype wave of Cleveland is uncalled for unless you play a dd. Most cruisers at tier 8 and higher has better effective firing range than cleveland who struggle to deal with maneuvering ships outside of 12 km. Combined that with the static kiting meta of ASIA server i dont see why people whine at it unless you are a DD player. Driving BB around these days is always a pleasure since there is so many camping idiots that think he is safe from spotter planed BB Edited July 6, 2018 by legionary2099 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

69 RimauLaut ∞ Member 351 posts 16,870 battles Report post #14 Posted July 6, 2018 GOT IT. Happy yet now I must go out and do things in real life. Maybe later can check the ship. There must be something good from it. Just like when people all hate shinonome.. I keep it with positive hope. Welcome to my scrap yard INDI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best (and also least attractive!) T7 BB. So effective at winning games. As for the Indy, I got one in a Santa crate and did a few of the free container missions, but the ship is so awful I just can't bring myself to play it anymore, even for a free container.

479 Unraveler Beta Tester 1,331 posts 23,131 battles Report post #22 Posted July 7, 2018 Today in my Haida I suddenly came upon an enemy Indianapolis. Although I was still outside my surface detection range, I was well within range of that savage 9.9km radar and my hitpoints were low. As I was preparing for my impending doom I noticed that a Catapult Fighter was circling the enemy ship... Thankyou, Indianapolis Marathon, for bestowing such a grand and unexpected blessing upon me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
