Armada: De Grasse

[@HELLCAT.28]

3:50 ok...

[@johnc4122]

Aaaaaaaayyy it's Hellcat! Everyone subscribe to this guy!

[@uss_pekka847gaming5]

OHHHHH! I get it now! 🤣

[@dsduckworth]

@0:50 A german aircraft carrier??? Somebody been smokin the good stuff...

[@blyatman4876]

Germany actually had plans to build aircraft carriers. The first project called the "Graf Zeppelin" was launched in 1939 but was never actually finished. So they could have had interests in converting large ships into carriers.

[@michaelg8593]

The conversion never happened but they had planned on calling it the glamour's name of II

[@dave3682]

Yes, during WWII the Germans captured the incomplete hull of the De Grasse and had plans to convert her into an aircraft carrier. However, lack of supplies meant that this never happened. Blueprints for the carrier conversion are readily available in a quick Google search.

[@michaelm9975]

David Seehafer You think it would make a good premium aircraft carrier for the Germans?

[@dave3682]

Why premium? We know that WG is gathering resources for a future German CV line, she could just go in the tree with other planned carrier converts like Gneisenau, Europa, Seydlitz and of course Graf Zeppelin's incomplete sister (since GZ has already been confirmed as a premium).

[@MarkusReese]

The successor to La Gallissionere. Superior in every way, but somehow fit into the same tier. Thanks to making a good ship in testing garbage.

[@birb9422]

When will you add the German aircraft carrier Graff Zeppelin ??

[@Xeonzs]

You got your wish lol :P

[@Trades46]

I'm still kind of sour that the De Grasse isn't the 127mm bristling AA cruiser she ended up in real life. I hope we'll see that configuration in the Colbert, which is still alive today, albeit awaiting disposal after failed attempts to turn her into a museum ship.

[@Slayer_Jesse]

so, kinda similar to the atlantas?

[@Trades46]

Even more guns than Atlanta or Flint for that matter; De Grasse & Colbert also possessed 57mm/60 caliber Mle 1950 which completely out-classes the 40mm Bofors. If Colbert makes it into WoWs, she would have AA capabilities that would make a Des Moines or Minotaur blush.

[@GintaPPE1000]

Colbert has a longer and more notable career than De Grasse as an AA cruiser, as well as better arrangement of the main guns. I'd honestly rather have her as the French Atlanta.

[@lordredlead2336]

And we have colbert

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

WG: We know you guys want the Italian Navy, and the royal navy, but here is a premium no one wanted, and just for fun we nerfed its sister ship so that this ship is better in every way! Playerbase: We want the damn Alaska already!!!

[@rudolphna54]

"no one wanted" uh, ok? I'm pretty sure I've remembered people talking about this ship as a possible premium forever. Also, you've gotten RN cruisers, RN BBs are on the way, and a RN DD is on the way as well. You also got a Italian cruiser. You really like complaining

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

I don't remember ever hearing someone talk about this ship, but literally thousands of people have asked for the Alaska. For every one person that wanted this french thing, 500 want the Alaska. Also I think instead of adding in the premiums now, they should add entire lines, then add premiums so we don't have to wait 6 months for a new line.

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

Well the Alaska weighs about the same as the Moskva, but had more AA guns, bigger guns, more armor, and was about 30 feet shorter. Plus since WG are to lazy to model penetration off of shell speed and weight, and simply go off of size "Looking at you american 16" super heavy shells that should have the same penetration as the yamato" The Alaska will struggle at whatever tier it gets put at since its guns were amazing IRL, but would suck in game just like the Scharnhorst. If WG would stop being lazy and update their game to have more realistic penetration peramiters the Alaska would be the best cruiser in the game, even beating out the british 16" shells at range.

[@BarcelPL]

So it if official - French Navy unique skill is being better at running away.

[@charlos3782]

The myth that the French are weak losers is just that, a myth with no basis in reality. It's just another example of Anglo-Saxon arrogance.

[@peacekeeper4647]

J'ai arreté moi au bout d'un moment ce cliché c'est vraiment....énervant

[@charlos3782]

Peace Keeper ouais je comprends ^^ des gamins irrespectueux...

[@nichaloushinson2507]

Charles De Swag the French never ran they played it smart and I agree with you

[@trlacr1781]

Charles De Swag complètement d'accord. Faites les malins bande de prétentieux , mais ne venez pas réclamer un nerf du De Grasse quand vous vous serez faits ridiculiser! (Même si j'ai un peu de famille anglaise)

[@thekhabtain2225]

does anyone actually use incoming fire over priority target?

[@D4rkn3ss2000]

The Epic Bunny nope, and that's what makes the video hylarious

[@Ermy1996]

nope. is like they dont even play the game. look at the GK/ dank express video.

[@erikodegaard2943]

Is the audio kind of weird or is it just me

[@pauldrive7243]

So defensive fire,hydro acoustic and speed boost with fast accurate 152mm guns,9km range torps with probable better armour than La Glassionaire? OP much? ( yes I know its a premium ship)

[@alphaadhito]

For sake, I thought it was Neil deGrease Tyson!

[@a1700zz]

Damn good cruiser, Prefer to La Gallssionnere. Superior to any earlier french cruisers.

[@ZVelzy]

If wargaming ever adds Submarine's into this I want an animation of Convoy 92 following the song Sabaton did on it "WolfPack."

[@Ermy1996]

i would laugh so hard. half the ships have hydreo, subs speed on surface 15 kts, submerged 3 kts. laughable.

[@jediael9906]

Well well, submarines are here in the testing phase at least

[@UhackUdie]

@@jediael9906 Yep, coming into ranked now.

[@JDRLawrence]

Could you try building the HMS småland

[@UhackUdie]

Well we have smaland now kekw

is wargaming going to lunch world of warships blitz any time soon I know this is irrelevant but I wanted to know

[@danielgomez5926]

Fine game!

[@artacania]

blablabla.. French run away blabla.. Under Napoleon Bonapare the tricoloure was the most feared and respected flag in Europe. Every county had their highwater mark.

[@Cheese_Boi1986]

just got this in a supercontainer

[@chrisp6710]

What does de grasse translate into? I looked lit up but google just said fat

[@lifesimulator3964]

Neil De Grasse Tyson everyone

[@rakaaufar1625]

pleese colaboration kantai collection

[@Edax_Royeaux]

Even this sales pitch is quite sedate. I'll pass on this ship. Next time, give the VA a cup of coffee.

[@jargon9346]

De Grasse Degrasse Tyson

[@kristianbowitz288]

All french ships have clocs... WHY?!

[@lukasvillar9328]

They are not clocks, they are used to inform the distance of the targets to the other ships, so even if a ship can not see the target they can concentrate the shots in a single place.

[@dharmdevil]

"player favorite" nurnberg. yeah right

[@lordredlead2336]

In concole it is a player favorite
