I go all offense and also do ok, even defensive commanders will not save you from a BB. I play cruisers almost exclusively because it is more challenging. Position and awareness is the only real defense for a CA. Tbull...always top notch advice man!

I remember one game: I was in a Omaha, coming at me was a Queen Elizabeth leading a Dallas. Between us was an island off my port bow. I took a few shots at the Dallas knowing that my guns wouldn't do much to the battleship. My plan was to break contact by going around the island and coming up behind the Queen Elizabeth for a torp run (as the Dallas would most likely have pulled ahead by the time). The Queen Elizabeth said "Nope" and one shot my ass. LMFAO😂🤣😂🤣😂

Another great and informative video... it drives me nuts when I'm in my destroyer my team expects me to hunt and kill other destroyers... that's not my job, honey. Sure I'll kill 'em if I see 'em, but cruisers need to know their roll and stop farming damage off BBs and go kill the destroyers out there harassing our battleships.
@catloveralways4 жыл бұрын
As a cruiser player I do expect you (destroyers) to help hunt them. Most are able to find them easily using twist and track. But I don't necessarily expect you to engage them.
@packatk74314 жыл бұрын
@@catloveralways I'm not saying that I won't or wouldn't hunt and kill destroyers when it's prudent... I want to win just like everyone else. But when I have to come off defending a cap or I'm pulled off front line spotting because an enemy destroyer is harassing my battleships and a perfectly capable and in range cruiser is completely ignoring that destroyer I have an issue with where that cruiser captains head is... and it happens often enough for me to say something here.

@davefinfrock33244 жыл бұрын
Actually, it is your job to deal with other destroyers. The cruiser's primary job is to help you with that. You're going to run into them first. If your cruisers are paying attention, they should be getting guns on the enemy DD as soon as you spot it. You'll be doing likewise while trying to avoid damage, but it's a group effort. Cruisers and destroyers should be working hand in glove in this situation. Also, keep in mind that 8" gun cruisers aren't as effective in dealing with DDs as 6" gun cruisers--we won't get into Graf Spee and anti-DD work.

I'm a Cruiser Main since release!! A good Cruiser player gives you a high chance of winning and then there are Cruisers players like myself!! I'm not a Heavyweight Hunter for show, it's what my boats do!! I'll also add that if a really good Cruiser player escorts or trails a Battleship, that Batfleship aside from getting Dev struck had the potential for a 200k game!! Teamwork trumps everything though no matter how good or great you may be.. If the other team is a team and it's a bunch of Rambos on your team?? GOOD LUCK!! Enjoy your vids Bull!!
