[@randomcitizenlatt4872]

I missed hearing Mountbatten's fans in every video... As well as I missed yesterday's video. I cannot apologize enough.

[@kevinheaney7112]

Its so good to hear someone pronounce BRISBANE correctly

[@BlackHearthguard]

Yeah, instead of BrisBain, lol

[@merafirewing6591]

And it's the first time I see a Minon speak in full English.

[@FreshwaterNautical]

For those who want a good comp. with Brisbane, run it's counterpart Minotaur with it. A smoke Mino/Brisbane division with a good concealment gunboat destroyer is actually nasty.

[@mikedignum1868]

No cameos..this is not the first time we've seen this. Saw the show last night and I think I'd go for the Mino.

[@waynelawrence5220]

Stop saying you can wait a couple weeks and get her for coal, that is not what WG'ing has announced. WG'ing has said it will be RELEASED FOR COAL AFTER A LATER UPDATE, not when the event ends or in the next patch. So it is coming out at some right now unknown patch. If you recall they said the same thing last fall when the Velos was part of a similar web campaign and we still have not seen her released. Maybe it is coming out soon after the event but maybe not for quite some time.

[@terr281]

I picked the ship up for one purpose: clan battles, as a ranged HE dps'er. Soviet stealth radar to pop DDs, hydro for enemy (12km and greater) torps, 13.5k torps yourself (area denial / push cruisers out of position from stealth once the DD can't spot you... . In random battles, with CVs, hybrid BBs, and submarines... it is different. This season of CBs, though... .

[@stevecrawford333]

he range spam in cbs is a promise to lose

[@waynelawrence5220]

You might want to try playing her without IFHE. All the other cc's and steamers that have reviews out that I have seen are saying do not take IFHE because on this ship your HE damage will come from the fires not the pen so it it not worth cutting your fire chance in half.

[@samuelhakansson6680]

As if this guy knows what he's doing to begin with. Terrible play in the video, and he claims this ship is "just allright, nothing more". 2 km stealth radar is absolutely ridiculous, this thing is very strong for that reason alone.

[@davidwhitfield6025]

It would have been nice if she had been given a RAN Ensign (its a make up ship anyway so why not give her the Ensign our navy now flies on its ships.)

[@allanbourdius]

Don't all Pan-Europe, Pan-Asian, and Commonwealth ships have their national flags as alternates? All my Asian and one Commonwealth ship do.

[@davidwhitfield6025]

@@allanbourdius My two HMAS Vampires don't have an alternate Australian Ensign. Just account yourself lucky I guess.

[@sealordmountbatten]

She does! If you notice in port the RAN flag is flying! in the gameplay section, the replay unfortunately doesn’t pick up on that and just applied the commonwealth flag

[@davidwhitfield6025]

@@sealordmountbatten Thank you for replying. Actually the Brisbane has the British Ensign. I am referring to the RAN Ensign that all Australian ships flew from 1967 onwards. It is a defaced British White Ensign without the cross of St George. The cross is replaced with the Southern Cross and the Commonwealth Star/Federation Star. Love your channel. So much more positive than some. Keep on sailing and may your shells always fly true.

[@sealordmountbatten]

@@davidwhitfield6025 aahhhhh I see, I see, hopefully they get added in the future! Thanks!

[@brett76544]

The big question, commander at 19 or a tier 10 ship that you will get at least 2 containers for a year...... Or get the commander then coal for the ship.

[@Mike-DuBose]

Kind of looking forward to this one!

[@methrage]

got you be in one of your vids!! I really had to put the Vermont through her paces in that match, was lots of fun though!!

[@tomr1630]

I got my first capitan to 21 points. Thanks for your advice on capitan building.

[@turbogerbil2935]

AFAIK, WG has not confirmed when the ship will be released for coal. "After patch x" simply means anything from one month to several years. Personally, I very much doubt we'll see the ship in the armoury this year.

[@johnloy9331]

Agree completely about the camo, had to flip it 3 times before I realized there was camo

[@Cedric8486_1]

i have been saving up for her and yesterday. she is a very fun ship and i am a light cruiser main.

[@ScibyTravels]

They really need to get the Commonwealth country flags on the ships. It's like one flat image to slap on a flag.

[@123JWhyte]

after thjey removed eco bonuses from camos as a nerf art department is getting thier own back with bad camos

[@slowbro-]

One important difference is that Minotaur guns have 3.2 second base reload, and Brisbane guns have 5 second base reload. Gives Minotaur almost double the Brisbane's dpm. Shell arcs are almost identical, and firing angles are identical.

[@SkrapMetal84]

there is a note that this ship has a bigger AA range and is nearly maxed out on its AA level

[@shane2663]

Like to see HMAS Sydney and HMAS Australia added as well.

[@JafuetTheSame]

it's brisbn, merry chrysler, merry chrisis...

[@xzarial6652]

Just so people are aware BOTH the ship and captain will be available later for coal although they didn’t state wether the captain comes with 19 points or the usual 10!

[@mustrumridcully3853]

Any idea when?

I've got the USS Black. I don't mount the crappy camo it came with and run it in it's bithday suit instead.

[@luxie8097]

i use mods to disable all camos completely. game looks ridiculous to me otherwise lol

[@15Med3]

Maybe its just me but the 100 it seems, torpedoes on each side have been absolutely lethal for me, especially against BB and cruisers. Complete area denial or just to torp somebody to death. Definitely becoming a fav of mine. Ive played the Minotaur on the test server and i dont like it as much

[@marklewis3348]

Bit late now but it was perfectly achievable to get the ship for free. Do the missions, spend a bit of free XP, credits etc on the tokens. Much easier to grind those things than coal.

[@vasileroaita2864]

Nice video :)

[@user-ms5yi3wu6c]

It is about time we get another Aussie ship

[@dashdastardly]

Radar Mino is for aggressive plays. RPF is essential. You pick an island and you approach it using RPF so you don't get spotted then the fun begins. You support your DD from close range also providing AA. Its a hard ship to dig out. Brisbane looks pretty much the same. People think weak armour, must hide. It IS for aggressive play and not for open water. Open water is for emergencies only.

[@Mithril_Antimarr]

First impression is that it is an unremarkable ship that struggles when spotted by bigger ships... light cruiser specialists will pick this up but there is not much there for the rest of us as it is easy like all light cruisers to dev strike and doesn't bring anything unique or remarkable to the table.

[@baronofrhodes1185]

You mentioned ASW planed a dozen times, and used them twice... 🤣

[@tehpyono2203]

Are minotaur as sluggish as this ship. I got it and I felt moving it is quite sluggish.

[@peterskalak7844]

you might be able to filter the fan noise out with software, or move you pc farther away, or clean your heatsinks, or whatever you have to do to reduce that annoying fan noise.

[@sealordmountbatten]

Getting a new, bigger desk this summer, mic is currently ~6inches from the case, with the new desk it’ll be a few feet away

[@peterskalak7844]

@@sealordmountbatten that will be good news, I have heard you talk about fan noise but have not noticed it until this video, it was pretty loud and annoying in this one.

Thanks Sea Lord for the un bias review....

[@slaaneshgenderlord9184]

Just wondering, should I spent my tokens on the premium containers that have 11% to get me a CV or nah?

[@kalh5158]

I'm thinking doing that too and grab the Brisbane with coal

[@ludovitbradovka5208]

Wdym 550 from adventure missions? From the first set of missions alone i get 110 tokens

[@martindobrew80]

Not all points on the map give mission sets, only 5 of them

[@AidanDracole]

The nine stages of the campaign alternate between a mission chain and a story stage which players need to make a 'choice' (from what I've heard, it doesn't make a blind bit of difference to anything). So five mission chains and four 'choices' for 550 tokens and... well, nothing, respectively.

[@thomasfeiller2207]

I'm new to WOW.... on tier iv of American battle ship line. Only my second day and I'm usually in the top 3 for team stats.... this doesn't make sense. Are the teams mostly bots at this level??? I never see comments in chat. I'm playing random battles. What's up???

[@focusdagoat6172]

I’m new also ,but I’m on console. On Xbox when you start you see verses bots which has green background or verses which has red background, verses will be you and all human players . When events are going you will have option to play other modes like , Brawl & arena these are only available for short amounts of time and require a specific tier ship to play from what I’ve seen.

[@slowbro-]

Do I get Brisbane or the commander?

[@gantster5896]

I'd go with the commander. A 19-point commonwealth commander is a boon, especially one with a unique voice-over. Presumably, the commander won't be available again. The Brisbane, however, will be available for coal later this year, probably for the same price as the Salem.

[@xzarial6652]

They have said on stream that the captain would also be available for coal later but they didn’t state wether it would have 19 points!

[@Spalpeenz]

👌

[@hiyuh4113]

I think I'm going to puke if I hear the "Minotaur" again in reference to the Brisbane.

[@allanbourdius]

My Pirate Tokens will go for the 19 point commander, plus I find the female voiceovers more soothing, and I'm getting tired of Statue of Liberty all the time. If I get the ship it will be for coal sometime way down the road.

[@gamingplaylistsp]

how do i get commander kelly? have to grind tokens to buy her out or is there a faster way? i too feel the same way haha!

[@allanbourdius]

@@gamingplaylistsp grind the tokens. You can get enough faster if you buy the sequential bundles for coal/steel/fxp/ct.

[@sardaukerlegion]

Don't think i can finish this web campain, achievements need more time than a dockyard event in only one month.

[@thejamppa]

Yeah, first mission 90 top spotted and 24 mil potential damage and that is just 2 out of 4 mission of first tier out of 9... This grind is not meant to be achievable that you get something then spend dubloons and resources to get her... Then she comes in armoury for coal later and you regret life choices. Nope, not for me. I just kindly wait for her to appear in armoury. I have life outside screen. I can´t just sit there for a month do 18 hours of gaming.

[@sardaukerlegion]

@@thejamppa The captain is less expensive, try her.

[@snorkman2]

[@kingofcastlechaos]

Whoever is planning out these missions for WoWs is on crack. I am a decent player and play every day, but I am really struggling to get anywhere with these unreal milestones. Maybe they determined I am only 32% disgusted with the game and need to be closer to the median disgust percentage of 90%. This company's BS is getting really old.

[@MarkDrisch]

I'm sad to say that I'm super disappointed by this ship. The only damage it can do is with the torps. Her DPM is abysmal and not having smoke really makes this solely a DD assassin. I will probably barely play it compared to the Mino. *edit* I think you're being way too nice. This ship is a waste of time and or money.

[@Darren4352]

More gimmicks designed to suck us into a game that has already proven that it doesn't have our best interests at heart. It will be a rock hard pass on this one.

[@nicholasmelby5361]

I see nerfs in the future for this ship.

[@MB-xq3pq]

i got it for free from missions not worth real money its kinda decent but radar should be longer

[@iulica1337]

Brisbane is shit man i prefer to play Mino Moskva Napoli Hindi . No mobilty no dmg nothing. This combination of 20sec radar and that hight reload make her not so good as mino radar.

[@Caninoization]

so ridiculous and shameful WG resale ship again😏

I just canot play light cruisers cuz no armor. And when I fins an Island the enemy dd moved and suddenly your sooted again and get slaped by the satsuma from 30km away
