(*: Massachusetts and Massachusetts B being combined, I did reduce the numbers of players a bit since an overlap may exist, battle count remains unaffected) Massachusetts*: 257k games with ~20k players

West Virginia: 16k games with 1.9k players So for the last quarter of 2018 we get following numbers for the USN BB Premiums on the NA server: Now we do not have access to sale numbers, WG is keeping them tightly locked up, but we can look up how many times each ship has been played over certain time periods. What gains far more popularity are ships with unique/fun playstyles, ships which will make players play them over and over again.

USN BBs themselves are not necessarily popular ships here. This thing, while paper/fictional no doubt, does give a new flavor which none of the other BBs could give.' No gimmick at all, kinda like Alabama? Sales numbers would hardly support the effort required. another gimmick? Radar is already given to Missouri, and we shouldn't attempt to repeat that. AA? We already got a number of Tech Tree and Premium BBs for that. I don't really see how any of the BBs could be added at the moment in a way that would really attract my interest. We already have two Iowas, two SoDaks of which one already has been heavily gimmicked, two Standard type Premiums, a Premium New York class, and NC. 'Gonna play the booman, but gameplay wise this thing is more attractive for me than most if not all the USN BBs that existed at this point.

I have written this in another thread on Georgia, it should perhabs provide a new insight: I’ve got no issues with her other than why? So many other USS BBs, why go the paper route.įrom what I can see, this decision was actually rather obvious.
