She would still be the worst torp ship, but at least have a chance to use them, and she would be able to fire as she was designed, as a gun boat.Īnyway, I do not recommend this ship until they buff it somehow. The original gun boat role for them was fine, but they nerfed them to much, Seems to be confirmed by many others, as there almost no russian destroyers in the matches. Primary armament There's a lot of good stuff to say about these guns, but also quite a bit of bad. It's similar to its older cousin in a lot of ways, some of them bad. It's basically just a squished North Carolina at a glance, honestly. This combined with that you pretty much a bomber plane magnet makes this ship in most battles very non enjoyable. I have been think a lot about why the game has become so toxic and why I find it less and less enjoyable to play and I believe it is pure selfishness. Alabama is like, the essence of an American 1930s fast battleship. Sure once in a while you get a idiot enemy DD that ventures close to you, but most smart enemy players will use their better concealment to avoid you. Your are visible to most and your 8 km torps are almost impossible to land since you have to launch inside your visibility.Īlso your damage is minimal in most battles, meaning you dont get much exp, have high repair bills and do not contribute to the teams victory much. Against cruisers, very little chance, as they have at that tier enough turrets to stagger fire, and it just takes one shell to crit you. I been playing the Tier 8 Russian Destroyer, and yes, on a one on one with another destroyer she does well, but most smart players in Tier 8 to 10 will not be caught alone.
