I was beyond ecstatic that Texas performed better than anyone had hoped on her way to dry dock. Sure there had been repairs to ensure that as little water would make it into the interior of the ship as possible, but still. She handled the journey extremely well for a ship of that advanced age.

In the grand scheme of naval history, Texas is very much overshadowed by Bismarck, Yamato, and so on. I believe she did a lot of convoy escort in the Atlantic in WWII. She counter sniped a German on Omaha beach, and also flooded part of herself to extend her range for shore bombardment on D-Day. Took a hit from coastal artillery later in 1944, then redeployed to the pacific where she did more shore bombardment at Iwo Jima. After the war she ended her long career, and is now a museum ship at La Porte, Texas. She is the last dreadnought in existence, and currently under going repair. Those are just bits of her history that I can remember, I didn’t even touch her WWI and interwar service.

@@sirdiealot53 the story behind that one is hilarious, after Texas finished her bombardment it just so happened that she perfectly struck a German sniper a couple of miles inland who was in a heavily concealed position.

@@TickleMyResearch it was gorgeous! A little wear and tear but that’s to be expected of a 80+ year old ship. Great tour guides, so many switches and compartments and doohickeys and then there’s the deck with simulated .50 cal and you climb inside the 16 inch barbettes. So worth it if you value navy/military history. Or just like looking at pretty boats. ;)

Tier 4-6 (especially 5) seems to be the most fun at the moment, but the money making is really at Tier 7, especially with premiums. If you need 30 million fast just play premium ships at Tier 7 with premium time active (7 days of premium time is enough, 3 if you have 3 days of free time to play Legends). If you aren't an absolute scrub you'll earn 30 mil really quickly. The small payment you'd need to get premium time is a small price to pay for easily making millions in credits.
