My favorite ship!!!! So honored and badass that my uncle served on that ship. The build setup is awesome. I’ve done this before and catch so many off guard it’s really funny seeing some people panick 😂
Thanks for the inspiration Spartan! after watching this I started my Iowa grind again first battle back in the Colorado 6 kills 123k damage dreadnought high cal kraken Again, thanks for the inspiration keep up the good work
It didn’t take me long to learn not go full broadside with my Iowa. However, I guess being new to the level 7’s I went with my lower tiered ships, I didn’t even think about the reload time. I’ll have to try it, especially against some the other premium shops who secondaries are hitting my ship and setting it on fire before I can bring my turrets to bare on them.
Love the videos I think this line of videos on the path to the Iowa was great gave all us lesser captains a great insight into numerous tactics and different ways to play these ships . Keep up the good work 👨🏼✈️
Love the videos! I grinded to the Iowa and finally got her a few weeks ago. Gonna do your full dispersion build for sure, I almost have enough commander xp to buy Sims
Thankyou spartan ive been using this build for about 5 days now and love it been catching so many people of guard with 24sec reload good shit thanks again
My history is a little fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure no WWII battleships were commanded by any wifu's and I'm REALLY sure none were ever commanded by Megatron.
@Spartan Elite43 I just unlocked William Sims in a crate a couple days ago. So, for the dispersion build, what free-to-play commander would you put in place of Azur Lane Scharnhorst?
Hey Spartan you should do a community post with all the bbs line to vote for the next path to... And about builds i managed to get a 20sec reload on Massachussets making it a monster at brawling
@@elijahsellers3727 Revel and Maden lvl 16 as inspirations, Lee as a commander with brawler perk and the reload slot 4, the biggest downside is of course the range at only 15.8km... but its really fun even if its not the "go to" build i did put out some nasty games with it...
Hey Spartan they make a 1/200 scale version of the Iowa and the Missouri I want to build one one daythey are absolutely massive they are about 4ft long when complete
You beat me to completely maxing William sims I knew more battleships were gonna come but you beat me darn! But also interesting base traits. Also Iowa’s guns are 45 caliber not 50. But however I believe the Montana has 50 caliber guns but I could be wrong. If I’m right expect more range.
@@SpartanElite43 you know what’s interesting I’m pretty sure they said 45 caliber in the wows video for the Iowa but the internet says 50 so I’m gonna go with the internet
@@williamchastain9510 The SoDaks were the last of the American 45 caliber battleships. The entire point of the Iowa class was that it had the 50 caliber 406mm that gave it extra range for the pacific.
Spartan, how many games in row should I Iowa (as a verb), to get decent game or rng? I have 16 Sims. And, what s up with the plotting room, is it yet working?
Yes the secondaries help shoot down planes. They contribute to the Flak clouds you see. A lot of the american 127mm guns are Dual purpose and not only fire at surface vessels but also planes.
Hey Spartan, I was in a match against you last night for peeks countdowns and you gave me a little crap for taking off my camo on my Iowa, just wanted to apologize for getting so annoyed by your comment cause I found out how to turn off the camos visually in game so I can have the camo benefits while maintaining the clean no camo look, love the vids spartan, keep em coming
Hey spartan how do you get so much silver in a tier 7 game I play my Bismarck in AI and get 95,000-130,000 damage and loose 10,000-40,000 silver with premium. is it because I am playing In AI or just because I'm bad
Hey Spartan I finally got to play with you. I was in The Akisuki on your right that shot the kagero and took your kill. It was a great match to play as well as watch from your video ! Anytime you want to partner up SANDSTALKER 005
I get where you're coming from When idiots just go to the edge of the map trying to be a sniper at 22 km.... But you can't say after dominating C or A That is not good to be able to shoot 22 km to the other side of the map
Hi Spartan I have 230 million silver and I have 47k gold and 860k global XP i have every Japanese ship that they put in the game I have all the Japanese aircraft carriers I have all the Japanese campaign ships that were in the game I have all the premium Japanese ships I got both legendary Japanese ships I have both anime captains for the Japanese and I have all the Japanese captains I spent so much money in this game I just can't stop spending money which I have plenty of money to spend oh and all my ships are maxed out as well I am a whale I spend a lot of money in this game the game is just so fun but I love your videos keep up the good work I play on PS4
The is still my favorite ship evan though its broken but so are a lot of BB at the moment if WG would at least acknowledge there is a problem that would help then they might fix it and the other BB's that can no longer damage cruiser's the way they should every BB has become very inconsistent
@Spartan Elite43 Hey i know this is an Iowa vid and all that but i just noticed you have Hellsinger, just in case you don't know it, Hellsinger is a hybrid dd commander meaning you can get both , twist and track and fragile threat . Which also means that not only can you outspot enemies with the double concealment build , but also be prepared for encounters beforehand because of the extra info twist and track provides. i highly recommend you give him a try at some point because his skill set is gamechanging for the Japanese dds P.S. Also great video as always with the Iowa 🌽 and i hope you have a wonderfull day if you are reading this.
I had a Iowa bully me, just ran me over in my German cruiser YORK, so they was not aware how close the Bismarck was, first salvo from that megalodon just wiped that full health Iowa off the map. I said I'm dead, I'm next but I can't run like a coward because I don't want to be fined repair cost so I switched to high explosive set the beast on fire, torped her then came around to her left, her guns still wasn't on me I burned her again 1xcentidal! I said if she fires it's over, her secondary took a chunk of my health, I fired my torps full spread and the Bismarck died gloriously THANKS IOWA.
I love what they say in the naval legends video for Iowa
*”Iowa would end the era of battleships, by becoming the best of them”*
My favorite ship!!!! So honored and badass that my uncle served on that ship. The build setup is awesome. I’ve done this before and catch so many off guard it’s really funny seeing some people panick 😂
Thanks for the inspiration Spartan!
after watching this I started my Iowa grind again
first battle back in the Colorado 6 kills 123k damage dreadnought high cal kraken
Again, thanks for the inspiration keep up the good work

Yay!!! Spartan finished the series,well done! Please can you do British BBs next :)
My history is a little fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure no WWII battleships were commanded by any wifu's and I'm REALLY sure none were ever commanded by Megatron.
YES! FINALLY just unlocked and bought the Iowa! About to take her out now!
Enjoy!
Thanks spartan I was playing Iowa a lot and not getting what I wanted but you showed me how to play and thanks for this
Glad to help and hope you enjoy her!
Enjoyable video Spartan. I'm playing this ship quite a lot these days. can be fun but at times very frustrating also. 👍⚓
Nice to see you going on the NJ, I went on her back in 2019. Still wear her hat almost every day
Liked your load out for the Iowa. Good video Spartan Elite
Hey Spartan I literally just unlocked Iowa😊 and setting it up like you got it hooorrraaa
Noice! Hope she treats you well
Weird, I don't have those commanders as options for inspiration
Some commanders are only available if you buy them unfortunately
Very good battle Mr spartan keep the awesome videos coming 😎
Can you do a path in the Japanese BB:s after this? Also, live your videos, they have made me a better player. I’m serious
Yes
yes
Yes, more people need to learn to Amagi.
Yes, I live his videos too😉😋
I’m for this as I struggle with Japanese compared to anything else
@Spartan Elite43 I just unlocked William Sims in a crate a couple days ago. So, for the dispersion build, what free-to-play commander would you put in place of Azur Lane Scharnhorst?
Cunningham
But what other free-to-play commander would you add in addition to Cunningham? I do not have Azur Lane Scharnorst.
@@timothyalexander5208 Paolo di Revel for faster reload
@@SpartanElite43 thank you! I appreciate the advice!
Love this series. If you like his channel, let’s support him. Like, comment and watch the commercials all the way through.
Congrats m8, she's a beauty and a beast. Hopefully I'll catch you in my Bismarck some games.
Reload build helping me and my stock iowa thanks for the info
I don’t give up many citidel hits but I def get a butt load of citidels 😊
Noice
I frickin love my Iowa 😊
The fact that you could right now in theory get the Georgia a 20-22 second reload Is just disgusting
Im just now bout to get the iwoa thank you so much for this buils Spartan 💥
I think a path to the vlady would be awesome?
My first tier seven ship in the game and now that Kansas is coming I’ll start grinding for that as well
I got into a game with you last night,you were in the yudachi and i was one of the ochakovs right next to you
Noice
Hey Spartan you should do a community post with all the bbs line to vote for the next path to...
And about builds i managed to get a 20sec reload on Massachussets making it a monster at brawling
Thats actually a solid Idea.
Wow, how did you get it that low?
@@elijahsellers3727 Revel and Maden lvl 16 as inspirations, Lee as a commander with brawler perk and the reload slot 4, the biggest downside is of course the range at only 15.8km... but its really fun even if its not the "go to" build i did put out some nasty games with it...
@@aproudbaguette3605 I bet! I'll have to try it
Hi sp
Is it possible for you to focus on the legendaries for this series becuz a lot of people I think don't know how to play them
The series is literally made for tech tree ships
Wonder how AL Queen Elizabeth would do for your reload/traverse/grouping? Just curious.
Hey Spartan they make a 1/200 scale version of the Iowa and the Missouri I want to build one one daythey are absolutely massive they are about 4ft long when complete
Iowa with a 24 second reload...thats pog and gonna try it now when my drained resources are available.
How do you get all the boosts
Is there anyway to get the old AL commanders like Sharnhorst?
They bring them back every so often so keep an eye in the store
@@SpartanElite43 thanks!
So... can the amagi over pen ships that can bounce 406mm guns?
Beautiful,This is why we look to you,One of the Best CC's to teach us how to play correctly
Can you do a review on the texas
Iwoa= God mode 😂
Btw love the vids
Amagi is better in my opinion.
Did they fix artillery plotting room?

I noticed that the default iowa's bridge looks different and it bothers me. How do you get that type of bridge?
More of this videos!👍❤️
just got the Iowa today
Who could I use since I don't have scharnhorst?
Andrew Cunningham is a popular choice or perhaps Charles Madden to help with a little faster reload and traverse
@Spartan Elite43 I see thanks I'll see if I have madden, already running Cunningham for my inspirations.
What's the top 5 best American battleships in order?
Anyone know how to change commander pls help cause im losing my mind
Yes when hovering over the ship press up on the d-pad and then press A on xbox or X on PS
@@SpartanElite43 thanks super helpful
Can’t wait for “path to Kansas” series
Spartan, how many games in row should I Iowa (as a verb), to get decent game or rng?
I have 16 Sims.
And, what s up with the plotting room, is it yet working?
The max range i reached in the Iowa is not 22km (is that possible?) but 20.3km
My Amagi has like 13.4 detectability with a concealment mod.
Usually when I outright delete someone, it's at 19k+ range. Regardless of the ship I'm in.
Do the secondaries actually shoot down planes?
Yes the secondaries help shoot down planes. They contribute to the Flak clouds you see. A lot of the american 127mm guns are Dual purpose and not only fire at surface vessels but also planes.
@Spartan Elite43 wow I didn't know that. But what about Worcester's dual purpose main guns?
@@Dublinplanespotter23 Alot of the light cruisers for the US also have dual Purpose Main Batteries which work in the same way.
I think you should stick with this even if it was once a week, biweekly or whatever works best.
Great Video!
is champagne a good ship to get?
I didn’t play wow for year and I just played it yesterday
Noice
Hiiiiii! Can you do the Japanese dds? Next I love this series!!!
GG, but I’ll stay with my dispersion build 😂
Hey Spartan, I was in a match against you last night for peeks countdowns and you gave me a little crap for taking off my camo on my Iowa, just wanted to apologize for getting so annoyed by your comment cause I found out how to turn off the camos visually in game so I can have the camo benefits while maintaining the clean no camo look, love the vids spartan, keep em coming
How do you do this?
@@Ozark-nq9uu its in the settings under customization
Accidently said 32.7s reload, its 30s
Hey spartan how do you get so much silver in a tier 7 game I play my Bismarck in AI and get 95,000-130,000 damage and loose 10,000-40,000 silver with premium. is it because I am playing In AI or just because I'm bad
iirc Megatron has a long range build
Since I’ve started watching I got the yamy
Hey Spartan I finally got to play with you. I was in The Akisuki on your right that shot the kagero and took your kill. It was a great match to play as well as watch from your video ! Anytime you want to partner up SANDSTALKER 005
Funny thing I’ve had the Iowa for almost a yr now and never used it once I want to keep it a virgin
Can you do path to the Bismarck next please?
Megatron gives you more range.
You got the math right this time
I get where you're coming from When idiots just go to the edge of the map trying to be a sniper at 22 km.... But you can't say after dominating C or A That is not good to be able to shoot 22 km to the other side of the map
Best Battleship in the game
Potatoes, please note the lack of reversing at the start of the match.
Can you take the camo off next time when you show the armour scheme please. It makes it much more visible for colour blind players like me lol
im 500xp off the iowa !! will get her tommorow :)
Why's the red team always seem to be better when I'm playing? 🤔🤣
Just got it wish me luck lol
Noice! Enjoy
@@SpartanElite43 1st game 3 kills 119k damage with only 2 upgrades

Can you do the British BB’s next having a hard time with that line, Love the series Spartan
6th! Wish I had the Iowa
If not, at least include the yamato in the japanese BB line
Is it in the bb line? No
I think champagne goes faster and coming Georgia will probably be faster as well with speed boost LOL
Does anyone else want to see spartans service records
How do you forget about the most famous of the Iowa’s. I know Missouri is famous for one thing but still
Debatable and he didn't really forget.
Can you please help iowa or missouri but I think missouri is going to be harder because I have no steel so I have to go iowa😑😑
Iowa is much easier to get
Fun fact The other 2 planed Iowa’s we’re the Georgia and Kentucky
Illinois, not Georgia
How to iowa. Could’nt be more accurate with this paint
The is still my favorite ship evan though its broken but so are a lot of BB at the moment if WG would at least acknowledge there is a problem that would help then they might fix it and the other BB's that can no longer damage cruiser's the way they should every BB has become very inconsistent

Ppl say Iowa has crap Armor
What about my Nagato
Do the path to the Vladivostok
Could you do the russians next ? 👍🏻👍🏻
Solution to
👌👍
I've smacked battleships and nuked cruisers at 20km+ so don't know what you mean bye hurting the team.
Ok not to be a know it all but Missouri was the last battleship ever built
I guess if you want to go on technicalities since it was technically finished after Wisconsin. I was more going by the numbers.
I love youuuuu
