4,529 Paladinum Member 7,109 posts 11,704 battles Report post #22 Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) You don't have any real ship for T5/6-7 and T9-10. Real ships that once belonged to and served the nations in the "Pan-Asian" faction, that is. Wujing and etc. are abominations created by WG to take advantages of the Lunar New Year event, along with the LNY captains. Ew. Imagine what kinds of abominable "alternative histories" WG write up if they even think about making this line. AND A BUNCH OF CLONE SHIPS! F**KING CLONE SHIPS! CLONE SHIPS ARE THE BANE OF THIS GAME!

And not just being cloned out of thin air. Sorry but if this whole line consists mostly Chinese ships, then it's a big no. You could argue half of the DD line is filled by Chinese ships. But since most people here acknowledge that PRC & ROC are 2 separate nations, we let that sink in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
