if navyfeild makes it easier to lvl up low lvl sailors that that will remove the problum
entirely.. yes its understood that its a team game but i hate waisting my time
grinding... the longer i have to grind the less willing i am willing to play the game..
and msot dds cant have both types of guns without sucking at both CLs and CAs can uggle
both but again its a loosing battle

^Not all CV's do :P

But yes; if your flagship/CV is attacked by a DD, then your entire team is failing, not
just the AA that volunteered to escort the ship. Seeing as you're in the finger-pointing
mood, blame them.

If a CV is killed by a DD... the driver is doing something wrong.

CVs have R slots... this is exactly the reason why they are there.

there is no point in arguing whether aa ship should load HE, everyone has its
duty.And if everyone has done his share, no chance is that this team is going to
lose.This is a game calls for teamwork, but personal skills, if not of more importance,
at least as important as teamwork.

you can blame the team for why dd can come near the flag than to blam the aa ship.


by the way, i often sank flag or cv using Brooklyn with aa\he. ^^

Lets just remove all ships, have 1 ship everyone uses which is exactly the same and make
sure the set ups can't be varied.......... or not

Napoleon, are you really thinking what you're saying? should we Laugh now or
you're gonna tell us when to start?

You got BB/CA/CL for shoot ships, then you got AA CA/CL for shoot planes, there are
DEDICATED AA ships in the game, what means Dedicated AA Ships? Ships that
should play AA.

The AA Shells deals no damages to ship (which is dumb, imo, but ti's not the subject
here), the HE/AP shells deals no damages to planes (which is also dumb, how would
a 16" shell pass through a fighter witouth damaging it? well again out of subject).

A GOOD (I said Good, not Spamming) AA ship is as much usefull as a BB in a Team
(since it's currently your point of view) shooting down Fighters/Scouts (preventing
ennemies to have sight on your ships) and shooting down Bombers (preventing your
BB to get shot/finished by a bomber run.) It's not a story of grinding or whatever,
sure shooting planes makes you earn Credits and Experts at a better rate then
everything else, but it's not (in most case) the first goal (except may be for experts)
it's more a "Strategic" choice,
having a Good AA ship is good for :

1 - The CVs can focus more on Scouting than Defending/Fighter Covering/Counter
Scouting.

2 - It's a good input for the BBs AA (even the BB using AA are becoming rare).

3 - The BBs using AA can focus on Ships attacking when they're in range w/o having
to take care of the planes incoming (already tried to shoot a BB5 while having to
shot down a wave of DB? It's a hard job).

So yes there are "unarmed" AA ships, most of the AA ships don't have to fight Ships,
and if a DD reached your flag ship, it's may be because you have fail BBs that let the
DD pass the line, or either your BBs are all dead, which wouldn't make a change if
there was or not that DD.


For resume, pointless Topic.

You have to remember a lot of people play aa ships to level up crews, or expert them.
Therefore they level up as many as they can. So that being said the two argueably best
nations for AAing doesn't have duel purpose aa gunning sailors (KM,IJN). Therefore don't
argue something that lots of people will always do.

Second, if you are a battleship and need an aa boats help to take things down, you should
not be in a battleship.

Problem of AA ships is lack of normal ammo for good AA guns. Equiping guns in torpedo
slots will change nothingq because they are for HH at best.

And sometimes DD packed with good crew can do more damage than 2 CL

OMG
Then Cv's should carry guns too. Use brain man... AA ship is AA ship. BB is BB. If some
one want play AA he put only AA ammo due to high amount of it needed in these
farmed Cv's. So get off from AA ships.

OMG can BB ships bring AA guns?

Stop. Crying. About. Useless. Crap. BBs rarely carry AA guns, go whine about them. CV
rarely carry AA guns, go whine about them. SS rarely carry AA guns, go whine about it.
It's the same with ASW too (subs excluded). And what do you THINK AA ship stands for
smart one? It stands for ANTI AIR, not ANTI SHIP.
