      I once started a game in the Kongo, got a work call, quickly plotted a course to the enemy base and told my team to use me as a decoy. When I came back, the game was over and I had a low but just about adequate amount of XP, and a few thousand damage caused. Was better than just sitting there, at least. Unfortunately, I hardly took any damage.

    The transition between pre-dreadnouughts and dreadnoughts was a wild period for sure. Here we have the ship that at the same time has characteristics of renowned "floating hotel" heavy cruisers and true dreadnought battleship.

    The Mikasa was my favourite ship back when you could get flags for close quarters expert. The best part was that yes, you only got it in random not coop, and yes you only got it once a day, BUT bots padding random still counted, and having 9 secondaries kills in that first game of the day gave you 9 flags. So once a day I'd sail the seven seas like Yosemite Sam in search of phat booty, and got all the flags I needed. I apologized in advance to any actual player, then melted their faces with secondaries like I'm sailing the ark of the covenant.
    And then I'd sometimes do it again just because I was bored.

I remember the good ole days before WG ruined lower tier randoms by putting bots in them, I used to be able to take the Mikasa out late at night and though I had to wait a few minutes at times it would often put me in a 1 vs 1 match against some POS tier II cruiser (totally fair), and I would always laugh at their vain attempts to do anything against me :)

    As much as this is an April Fools, i always thought they would add more T2 Battleships of the old Pre Dreadnought style, sure there is not many, but enough for most nations to have 1.
    Sure makes me miss the really old days when this thing fought T1, and yes, the 152mm HE secondaries would Citadel all T1's. Was truly a cursed time, and in a way, I miss it.

    • @dclark142002

      Actually, there are far more pre-dreadnought battleships than dreadnoughts.
      WG development teams really made a blunder when they made this game about world war 2 ships. 1900-1920 has an order of magnitude more ships and classes available to model in game.

    The society that looks after her have stripped away some of the paint on one of the steel beams inside the ship to display the markings of the steel supplier, Glasgow Steel.
    She also has lots of memorabilia from the Russian fleet she decimated at Sushima Straight
