Range, K.M.

Armor, Brit

Torp/CV, Japs

Little bit of everything U.S.

Boiled down:

British have the best gunners if you choose to make them go Accuracy-->Accuracy-->Accuracy
or Reload-->Reload-->Reload. British have the best support crews because they get support
ability bonuses and each ship has 1 more support slot. British guns do the strongest
damage and they can block shot at high levels if went accuracy all the way. British also
have the best armor (cheap and can pack a lot) but is very expensive. British CVs are
so-so at best.

Summary: GO BRIT.

US has so-so everything except CV. US has the best CV until lvl 93, 95, or 99. If played
well can be great, otherwise, just so-so.

Summary: GO BRIT unless you CV.

IJN has great torps and many CVs. Everything else sucks in comparison to all other
nations given equal level. If not a very good player, don't touch this unless you want to
use torps to level a neutral sailor to a CV BO.

Summary: GO BRIT unless you CV.

KM has bonus to gunner stats but cannot specialize like UK so not as great. However, KM
has longest ranged guns so if you play smart, they are good nation to use. They also have
great engineers and deadly AA guns. Don't listen to people when they say KM CVs are good.
I have yet to meet one other than Rolleso in his Graf Zeppelin II or possibly Coolfish in
his Graf Zeppelin.

Summary: Heads or Tails. If Heads, GO BRIT; if Tails, go KM.

Here it is,
Japan
+ Torpedoes are their specialty
+ Large CV variety
+ Good Gunners
- Very weak armor

Germany
+ Great AA guns
+ Best Gunners
+ Long gun range
- Low gun range

United Kingdom
+ Best armor
+ Best per shell damage
- Expensive armor
- Low gun range

United States
+ Great CVs
+ Well balanced
+ Best AA Units

Personally, I want to go British, mainly because it would be easy to name ships. But
for beginners, especially for the expensive British armor, I'd Go American

Since the new DDs got introduced Brits lost their DD strengths, the CL stage of the
brits is boring anyway. CA stage rocks again, BB stage is bad until you get RP12.
From then Brits are just getting stronger and stronger and stronger....

Well, perhaps this will change once we get some ~level 90 BB out from all nations...

kevj speaks the word of the NF gosple


follow every word of it and the NF gods will bring salvation upon you at lvl 70

I don't exacty know what is the best side to go, but I do have a sheet somewhere,
i'll see if i can post it

USA- Delete your sailors and go british

German- Delete your sailors and go british

Japanese- Delete your sailors and go british


simple enough?
