WOW I DONT KNOW AGEN

Running KGV AW but with 35knts seems like a sitting duck situation to me.... I have the
same dilemma; speed with 42-39knts or AW 35knts(using lvl75 14" guns)

There is a time and a place for everything. Rushing included. As stated a rush is going
to be much more effective and forgiving if you wait and assess the situation. Finding an
isolated BB, or one already fighting a monty, SY, etc. Waiting for blind moments will
likely yield you the best results particularly in a fast ship ( it can be difficult as all
hell to fire blind on a 44+ knt ship).

One other thing to keep in mind is try to be aware of your OH time. Getting into a rush
at the end of OH can and will most likely be disaterous.

Rushing early on gets you obliterated with 0 attack. Wait until ppl are engaged and
distracted or an unscouted piece of map turns up before you attack.
AW KGV isn't really a rushing ship as much as it tries to steamroll things, for real
rushing you should leave off the deck.

Hmmm Ok...So if i were to rush early on and get more than one hit on a bb5 then I would
get more Xp than I do usually? I shall try it when the servers come back on.

Thanks for all the help guys :)

nice record capt!!

Lower tier BBs still receive a portion of shared xp. IIRC it is not up until BB4 or BB5
that it becomes almost 100%.

1) 0-15 Levels above your ship level = 20% increase in xp for that attack. 15-30 Levels
above = 40% increase in xp for that attack.
2) Higher team attack = more xp based on your percentage of shared xp
3) XP for a win is significantly higher than for a loss (assuming respectable attack).
4) XP is also based on means of attack. Torpedo attack = less xp, AA = Significantly
high xp.

In short: Try to win, try to hit bigger ships, and avoid using torps. That will increase
your xp. And to be honest I'd say winning games make the biggest difference on a time to
xp ratio.

if i remember corectly whit at lvl crew i was running 1.0 belt + 10.2 deck

now im training fp whit low recuit on when i run my kgv i put 10.5 deck and 2.0 belt
a liltle monster lol (but stay aways from sub lol)

and if you like this setup you will love your pow , the pow can only put 7.1 deck but
the 39knt is great you just have to make shure ppl whit bb4-5 dont shoot you at full
angle ,if you can make it to they angle 35-36 (for monty, yammy, and lion) your
armor will do the job.

and a other thing try to turn evrery time you shoot, some time u turn north
sometime south to confuse the ennemy then when your gun have reload continu to
charge armor can save you but when ennemy miss u that help u more

It's fine :P But I was under the impression that the amount of armour you could fit on the
KGV was only really enough to bounce shells that are smaller than 16"? Interesting. I
shall try this. Thanks :)

the 98k exp is a lucky game whit a super skilled cv player that blind and scout the
ennemy.

but my tactic is simple : your a bb2 ist not your job to start the fight so you wait
close to the battle line till the bb 4-5 start to engage ennemy, then you charge a bb
who is already focus on a other bb and whit the 14 you 2-3 shot him then u back for
repair and be ready for the next one. (try to always recharge your over heat asap)

and dont try to ruch 2-3 bb runing in line (like battle formation) wait for some 1 to
puch so you can attak him whitout be in range of to much bb. i try to make shure
only 1-2 bb can shoot at me when i ruch .

note that im using a full armor setup and 2 turret 2x 14 + 4x14 you only go 35knt
but you can bouns most of bb6 shell, ruching at this speed is all about timing and i
never over heat at the start, i keep the oh for the fight.

ps wacht sub lol they are pain whit the kgv, pow range.

btw sry my english is so bad lol
