The Montcalm availability issue is like Orion '44, Jupiter '42, Rodney, Xin Zhong Guo 14, and a whole bunch of others which have just been dumped in containers. If you're not playing regularly and clued into the game damn near all the time, when they drop, it's like 'where the hell this come from', because of the neverending parade of FOMO release events.
Montcalm was among the French ships that underwent refit and repairs in the USA in 1943. It helped the assault on Normandie beaches in June 44 with its sistership Georges Leygues by firing on German artillery positions, it actually saved the American assault on Omaha Beach by defying direct orders (British ships were assigned to fire on that sector).

Hey Flambino, I got the Mountcalm on a super santa pull yesterday. Thanks for a base play game in her. Looks like even overpens will wreck this ship. Nice super rare ship to collect dust in my collection.
@@Kellen6795 Yeah, the ship was real. But as we already have a ship from the class in game, WG just made this version to have something to fill up the boxes.
There’s a lot not to like about this game, but for me the music is just so well done. The holiday music just sounds great, and cheers me up every time I hear it. Look forward to the holiday themes in game every year now.
I wanted to test my beginner's (3 Mo) luck and so I bought 15 of the 20 packs of santa supercontainers as a retirement/xmas present to myself. 62 premiums including Hoffman, Prins,Van Oranje, Smolensk, 3 carriers, Montcalm, Orion '44, Chikuma II, Siliwangi, Ise, Alliance, Tirpitz, S. Thunder, Jean Bart, Alaska, Teng She, Collingwood plus a few others. I also used the steel, coal and dubs plus all the credits I farmed on my beloved Atlanta and Helena to get the Salem, Shimakaze, Worcester, Yamagiri and Jacksonville. 2 ships to 64. I figure I beat the odds a bit, newbie luck like Friday night in Vegas. I love my new fleet, so much fun. I left the best one from the containers for the last, get ready to punch your screens: Musashi.
And the WG not munipulating the game.... Perfect example. I playing from the open beta (2015. September) I have 62% win rate and my RNG and luck much below the avg. (I think because WG don't need to force me to stay because I reach this level without with paying them in the last 2-3 years.
They have these kinda 'rare' ships among the pre-release access events, there are like ~10 now ... they are there for a while at the end of a doubloon chain or in other ways and then vanish again, when the event ends. But as they are all low tier, they have a high drop chance on ship containers.
Montcalm was a French La Galissonnière-class cruiser, named in honour of Louis-Joseph de Montcalm. During World War II, she served with both Vichy France and the Allies.... Its real, just never mentioned 😂
The Navarin has been in the game for quite some time at this point, like a year or so. It's just not available outside containers. good secondary ship though.
Montcalm seems to be an oversized destroyer with dinky guns, to few torpedoes and no anti air defense... Only experts can be expected to survive in this, as Flambass just demonstrated... So good luck keeping it afloat...
I got her too , she and Picardie ( I got her tho from even for 1500db) are default reword seems , I am 99% F2P player (I have spend only 2€ on game ) , and I manage over time build nice ship collection before I have opend xmas crates , I got master collector badge = over 500 ships and I got so far from 20 mega & 41 : (in order I got those) - Velos -Montcalm - Scharchorst -K.Schörberg -Victoria -Yudachi -Juara -Florida -G.Hoffmann (goldcrate from sg) ... I get second part payed battle pass to as that 15 sg +1 mega & 6 certificates + 1 mega + 1 sg have potential to drop 2 ships , and with my collection hight chance T8+ . o7
I got a tier IX British Battleship Scarlet Thunder yesterday. And I was like what the heck is that. Wargaming Wiki list it a follows. Scarlet Thunder - British special premium Tier IX battleship. With its retro-futuristic design, the Scarlet Thunder ship is an engineering marvel that embodies the latest technological advances. Scarlet Thunder was first released for sale on 22 September 2023.
@@Roeper437 you play all the ships you have, and get festive rewards, for every 5 you can get a big container, for 1 you can get a little container..Armory..I think its teir 5 and above ships.
Hey love your game play and videos, I was wondering for your viewers, (I know you have those troll boxes), but would you ever think of joining with a random viewer and play as teammates on WOWS, and maybe give tips or just to give an average payer some fun playing with a WOWS pro. I defiantly would like to see you and jingles(the old man) play on a team and listen to the banter.
I don't think you, me or anyone else could get old man to play WG game ever again, as for playing with viewers, I do that sometimes, but mostly solo or with few friends
I'm getting lately to where I do nothing but select the "more coal" option...and getting a supercontainer..... of less coal than I would get from a normal coal drop.
??? 😧for real?? Getting a super container of less than 400 coal??? Ive left it on "more coal" & always only get 400 or one unit of coal! ...the exact same as mire signals or more other thingy. EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! 1 coal=400 , 3 shit smoke flags & like 500 free xp !!!
In 8 years of playing this game, I've ever only gotten 2 ships from the SCs. Both of them were the exact same worthless T2 garbage barges that I had just sold to be rid of them. Now I keep everything. Eight years of play, and I've never gotten a single ship from them.
17:00 yeah I am not sure this ship has any DPS at its extreme ranges. You were shooting a tier 7 BB for the entire time and got 2 fires I think, for 35k damage. Maybe that's good, I dunno. But that BB is doing fine.
It has intent and purpose. It is a ship, in the game, witness you using it for the purpose of, and intention of, winning, and explaining, it's existence. LMSAO
There are hundreds of ships in this game you can't get anymore, unless an event like this comes along and W.G. decides to put them in a random bundle at a lottery win rate of less than 1%. Nice clickbait title tho
If the Supercontainer was the one received from the Advent calender on 12/15, then I got 7,500 coal. Not bad at all. And I do believe the game is rigged. Any WG employee can watch the video, see your player name, and find your account. Then they can add some pixie dust to the account. Then Flambass (or any other internet/discord luminary) becomes and unwitting (false) advertisement tool for WG. Why do I believe this? Because the economics are too good to ignore: 1. It's dirt cheap; they don't have to make ad campaigns, 2. it reaches exactly the right people, 3. there's nothing to criticize since it's pretty stealthy. #teamtinfoil
i got exter, duplier, and tulon on christmas boxes, and few days ago in classic super container nueve de julio. The fk will play those, unless ranked 5 6 7 will come on.
Other day i saw a T7 Italian CA in Random Battles on opposite team. Had NEVER HEARD OF IT !! Looked in Tech tree after battle & no there. It wasn't a premium ship!! Wish I Could Remember Its Name !!! I forgot all about ut till seeing this video. ...All i can remember is T7 Italian Ca seems like it started with a letter "D" I think!....Maybe 7-10 letters in the name & it didn't sound "Italian " ....should have screenshot that !!! Dang!! Can anyone confirm this? Am i just going nuts???

Same with the Wiesbaden. I ironically enough got all of those in Santa Mega containers

Montcalm is a real ship though. She's a La Galissonnière class light cruiser.
That’s what I saw the Montcalm as. I saw her as a premium La Galissonnière
Hey Flambino, I got the Mountcalm on a super santa pull yesterday. Thanks for a base play game in her. Looks like even overpens will wreck this ship. Nice super rare ship to collect dust in my collection.
It's a La Galissonnière clone. It came out during a shipyard event if I remember correctly
It was a real ship built between WWI and WWII.
Can't believe you survived that battle.
Aslains modpack. Show all ships in the tech tree mod will show all nations premiums. Not the limited view you have with a vanilla install
God praise Aslain, amen.
Sure, that man is the unsang hero but it is weird af that org game doesn't have everything it needs included
@@Flambass not really that weird, WeeGee are to busy pumping out new ships better than the last batch to be adding these things.
Ship only made in order for WG to have something low-mid tier to fill in the boxes.
Nope shes a real ship. Was at the Normandy landings

Should be interesting after some trials. Well done!
It was a part of the D-Day event, available along with Orion44 and a DD (Jupiter I think).
That dd was the one spotting you whole game just went for CV !

The appearance is a permanent camo that can be removed to have the ship look like a Duncan.
I got the T10 German DD the G. Hoffmann the other day from a Super Container, The Hoffmann is q Premium Ship as is Montclam.
I got the Orion 44 for my first container..Also finally got the Musashi... ;)
how much money you spent for it lol... when i did some calculation i concluded that is better to buy it during auction lol

Got the Benham in the free container
Nice. I wouldn't mind that one or somers. I want all the usn dd lol
drinking "pipi" ? - just sounds wrong! - ☺
WHERE'S THE FLAM SAUCE?
I've always wanted to visit Croatia and drink Pipi
Flam complains so much about WOWS they thought lets give him a ship hahahaha I got the Arizona from a container :)
Got a Mutsu in a super container
Also got a ship too.
