Ship design makes sense... Spain liked what Italy was churning out,much like Russia. Could be a interesting cruiser. But the Spanish flag abstract slapped on the sides always seemed weird.
@@pendragooon That's indeed true. I've seen pictures from American ships before 1916. Ocean liners from that time had big US flags on their sides to discourage German ships from sending torpedo's into their sides. Eventually when the US entered the war, the flags were removed from the ships. Ocean liners were kept mostly at safe ports. Although some were used as a troop transporter.This happened again in early WW2; SS America had big flags on her side in 1939-1940.
@@pendragooonWhile Spain leaned to Italy, they had indigenous designs. The tier 9 in fact, the one based on the project 138, could have been made into a T10 by using the actual proposal of 12 203mm instead of those stupid British guns who are totally out of place
As you noted the burst is nearly free, for some players they would probably find better performance if they took extra time to aim the burst compared to just firing when on cool down. The DPM is something like 15% from using burst but that would be easily made up by better aiming.
I play World of Warships; Legends on Xbox, but what i enjoy about you video's is how you explain what you do as you're doing it, which pretty much explains why you're doing it as well simultaneously . This has helped me learn many things about when and why to push, choose between HE/AP, and how i should angle my armor depending on what I'm up against. On average over the last 3 years I'd achieve maybe 60 to 70k damage and maybe a kill. I consistently through advice given by you and a few others brought my average up to 140 to 180k and consistently 3 or 4 kills so i appreciate the style of your videos because you are not only entertaining, but incredibly informative as well and it has helped me enjoy the game more while being more effective Keep doing what you're doing and i hope you have yourself an awesome week!!
Looks a strong ship and that second game with my main man Paul in the Cv is an amazing player, I used to be in his clan and I have been amazed playing with him some games like he is the best mino player on the whole NA server fact, nice games I shall look forward to getting them in September then for free.
kinda hyped for this line. i love the alvaro de bazán even though its just a bit over mediocre, and as a cruiser main finally big guns and speed. and i love the arcs and f key. just the damn early access bs sux but in 2 months i can play this game again :P
Thank you potato for saying what I’ve been saying to people. DPM means nothing if the enemy only takes one good salvo then angles. Two good broadsides is worth more than 2 second longer overall reload. Just kite after you fire two shots. Stay within 12km and you can go dark after the burst
Looks like a descent ship, kinda similar to the henry but with the bust fire and better armour more competitive in the current meta. Looking forward to play it (in two months 😅)
The armor is worse than Napoli's but no worse than most T10 cruisers. And the guns are much better than Napoli's. The reload is so much faster and she even has lower drag coefficient. She has hydro. Looks like a fun ship.
I’ve blown a few of these things out of the water already. I think people are really thinking this is a Napoli but with burst fire and no smoke… all I know is my Georgia, Stalingrad, Yammy and Vincent have been munching on these Italian bois. Especially the players that have already bought their way to the Castilla. It’s definitely a neat ship that doesn’t rely on its gimmick that much, but it’s hilarious to have when a light cruiser gets caught out in a bad spot. Have a friend with the T9 and he has done some filthy things to Minotaurs especially. I think the ships will be decent but definitely not game breaking like a lot of the previous tech tree releases have been.
Looks a little squishy, but not too bad. Might be pretty good, especially with a burst nearly the same as standard reload. I was thinking when the Vince when broadside and you tried the AP, it might have really hit him hard.
The reason behind that camo was that Spain was a neutral country during ww2 and they wanted to make sure their ships were easily identifiable by both sides
Yes it says that it's based on the Italian designs. After the civil war fascist spain got closer with italy and thats why (almost) all the higher tier spanish cruisers look very similar to italian ones, they were given designs by Ansaldo.
My only experience with ships from Spain was the Canarias (decent, but nothing to write home about,) and the DD Alvaro de Bazan, which I am not a fan of. This on the other hand looks like its going to be a lot of fun.
losing 3,5s on reload for getting 2x the alpha (burst) dmg is absurdly strong tbh. Its always in every game that the more burst dmg the lower the DPM vs a dmg over time type.
Oh man, I thought I'd see the game highlight of when I met you yesterday and you had a Kraken. I was the Benson you finished off after the game was over :) Keep up the awesome play!
after wargaming goes under i will be fully trained on how a cc for a community is just a marketing ploy, too many times i trust the opinion of others only to find out they made some videos based on their opinion that you will find no common ground with, this channel is the odd exception
Yes. More Fletchers please! I ONLY want real ships. No more paper ships till we have all 175 Fletchers! And God help WGif they have any gimmicks or I will complain about that too! Just real historical combat in my arcade game!
Instead review new ships from low tier with progress to top-notch - as always to catch public attention some YTbers taking as first about X tier to increasing a hype for a new top toy. Did WG paying you for such a bs ??. I'm not salty - normaly good reviever should take a tour from low tier V to the X . Probably all comes from utter stupid competition and race between WoWs Ytbers - who became a first to review a new X tier ship from a new line. Of course my point of view will be highly criticized, but I don't give a heck about it.
I find it harder to watch your videos lately as every single game you play super passively and have no battle impact. It's like you are scared of dying and having a bad match so that you don't have to record anymore. This gameplay is just becoming so stale to witness I hope you can find yourself again potato...
My guy in the immelman just going battleship fishing, don't mind him

It's historically accurate. As a neutral country during WW2, you really wanted everybody to notice.

@@pendragooon It is historically accurate but makes no sense in game.
@@frankvc5899 maybe they will make it as a premium since it's a common wg practice.

This ship looks crazy fun and very powerful. It could just be your MM and skill level, but dang... Looks very good. GG PQ
Of all the entertaining things I saw, the best was the crying Ohio trying to explain that he had not in fact been baited
seems fun to combine front-back turret when kiting away.
Front turret burst, rear turret normal, so you can deal more DPM while more kiting
Definitely the boat you want to take to go waterskiing.
By watching the video i can say for sure, i'm gonna love playing this ship. Gotta grind it as soon as it's fully released.

Have you seen the T9 Andalucia ? It literally is British guns, Italian AA, German secs and french armor. Literally an asset flip.

I would like to think of it as a 18 guns with 20s reload, pretty cool if you think it that way
A fun ship is certainly a new thing. Last one was regolo.

Just over mediocre are the most fun to play. Making a ship work that shouldn't or difficult to make work is very rewarding.

Cool ship, thanks for covering it! I like the new comments/tooltips clarifying pen at range while you're talking about it.
Also: OPness...huehuehuehue

torps on the vincent made me smile so cool.
I love the fact you mentioned the Gdansk .... WP mate o7
I'm still waiting to see this ship and the whole line getting nerfed, but as time passes I get more and more afraid that this will never happen 😅
I was concerned they might be AP only. Looks fairly balanced.
Great guns, fast! Damn it another cruiser line I'm going to want to grind haha gg! 👍
massive balls on that immelmann captain
I'm grateful for the honest sample games. PQ: the content creator least likely to cherry pick games. It's downright inspirational.
A potentially balanced ship that’s fun to play? Doesn’t sound like war gaming these days
Ayy I was waiting for this, how convenient!
Seems like the wows version of wots bourrasque, double tap monster

Hi PQ, great as usual. Can you make a video about how to calculate the Aim using the crosshier data of time of shells and distance?
I play it the same way as Henri IV, flanks and AP overuse.
Looks a little squishy, but not too bad. Might be pretty good, especially with a burst nearly the same as standard reload. I was thinking when the Vince when broadside and you tried the AP, it might have really hit him hard.
Looks like a mix of an Italian & Russian ship
Hey Potato just curious as to what UI you are using? It's just very clean.
Looks good, but I couldn't help noticing the slow turret traverse.
this feeling, i think is love at first sight
play it almost like a venezia, primary HE opportunistic AP
i like the Spanish flag but man is that camouflage pattern bad.
The reason behind that camo was that Spain was a neutral country during ww2 and they wanted to make sure their ships were easily identifiable by both sides
@@fockewulf4178 I did not know this. Thank you for putting it in a historical context. That said, it is a game and these ships are fighting :)
It's not a camo, that's the naked ship. Any camo (expendable or permanent) will cover up the flag if you're that annoyed.
I'm curious, 10" is not a standard cruiser caliber for the 30s-40s. Was this a proposed new design gun from Italy?
Yes it says that it's based on the Italian designs. After the civil war fascist spain got closer with italy and thats why (almost) all the higher tier spanish cruisers look very similar to italian ones, they were given designs by Ansaldo.
My only experience with ships from Spain was the Canarias (decent, but nothing to write home about,) and the DD Alvaro de Bazan, which I am not a fan of. This on the other hand looks like its going to be a lot of fun.
Detail your HUD mode configuration, please.

Quite a speedy ship
Did WeeGee finally do it? A ship that's fun to play in a specific niche without warping the meta???
My God all this powercreep
RIP Henri
If everything is overpowered then nothing is.
UA-camr rng for new ships! Lol god games tho. The boat looks lke fun!
Imagine this in WW2
Burst fire is one of the better mechanics. And based on reality.
How do I get to the ship?
Looks fun, and my Zao will be sad
Oh man, I thought I'd see the game highlight of when I met you yesterday and you had a Kraken. I was the Benson you finished off after the game was over :) Keep up the awesome play!
Looks good.
21:30 sound sus >.
yo potato im a noob in the agem how can you aim top view like u did uin the video
21:31
Hehehehehe
You jinxed it... You enjoyed it, now WG will nerf it into oblivion... XD
Just a minor note: it's pronounced Cah-STEE-uh.
all of the games lately have just been blowouts 😔
im smelling this line probably get nerf
Man none of the HE you shot in the game lit any fires, only a secondary gun lit one near the end of the game, what are the chances of that
This looks like the American ship Des Moines but with tier 8 german battle ship tirpits or tier 7 battleship gnneassu secondaries
"Ca-sti-ya"
I just hate the camo that WG has given the Spanish ships, they really got lazy.
Love
It's a pity that the old ships aren't retrofitted. Mostly only new ships have burst fire and Co 😅
Another reason not to buy T11 Petro aka Novorossisk
after wargaming goes under i will be fully trained on how a cc for a community is just a marketing ploy, too many times i trust the opinion of others only to find out they made some videos based on their opinion that you will find no common ground with, this channel is the odd exception
AND THEY SUCK 🔥🔥🔥🔥
“CAST-EE-YAH”. Come on dude. Not hard to look up pronunciation
it's castilaaaaaalalallaahahahahahahahhahaah
Even Bou got it wrong 😢
It's actually not that bad.
more like GAST IH JAH
Hey, no need to be rude
i cringed so hard reading what the Ohio player said in chat
Yeahhh another paper ship from wg mind
I still believe the brust fire idea is stupid and will eventually ruin this game.
It's still peanuts compared to subs and CVs
Don't really about T10, that's a pretty boring tier.
When in the hell did mexico get war ship?.........LOL
Who remember when wow was about REAL ww1 and ww2 ships ???😢
Most of the cruisers of the Spanish line existed in real life, and the top tier ships were legit projects of the XX century.
Yes. More Fletchers please! I ONLY want real ships. No more paper ships till we have all 175 Fletchers! And God help WGif they have any gimmicks or I will complain about that too! Just real historical combat in my arcade game!

Lololol @ 21:32

Kah stee yah
