Black Friday ships

[sneakybass]

What new ship or two ships would you like to see made Into a black ship and offered on Black Friday sales....there will be more black ships im sure

[Jackson]

Ohio. But I wouldn't pay for it ;)

[UnrepentantSinner]

Kidd, Velos (unlikely to happen, but i can dream), Irian, Brandenburg.

[Jackson]

Actually I wouldn't mind Sun Yat-Sen. I want it, but am not going to pay 19300 doubs for it. It's one of the very few that hasn't gone to coal. *yet* Usually Black Friday ships have a 30% discount.. I might jump at that.

[sneakybass]

I saw a black friday container under the feature section just got me thinking about what WG might add later. We have 20 ships so far but they always add one or two more I think. We only have one tier 10 ship so far , I would like to see a American sub Balao or Bourgogne, or Montana ,Iowa. I think If Yamato was turned Into a black ship, geess I think a lot of people would get that ship sales would awsome for WG.

[Dee-Jay]

Benham, Smolensk, Musashi, Georgia... but they're not going to be in the black fleet of course! :)

I'll get Alaska and Massa if they're still available this year.

Maybe Le Terrible B and Kidd B are sensible choices.

Any of the coal, steel ships I don't have (a long list). I take it they'll never add RB ships (although they're possible quickest to grind anyway).

Is Sun Yat Sen actually any good? Does it bring anything to the table that Bajie doesn't with it's toughness and stellar accuracy? Big guns but not big enough to overmatch like Musashi does.

Why not Velos? I think any T8 or T9 doubloon ship is probable? I recently did a double coupon buy to get her. Worth it for 7000 doubloons or whatever that works out as. XD

It's a Soyuz with six big guns. No, probably not other than I dislike the silly gun arrangement on Bajie and Izumo. It's not too bad. I enjoyed it in test. I think it's pretty rare because the only way to get it is spending $80. Usually T9's go to coal eventually, but that one didn't. Don't overthink the overmatch too much. It takes such a precise accurate (lucky) shot for that to even matter it's usually irrelevant anyway.

It probably wont't be Velos because it's too new, and also because it's only been available for doubloons. Probably won't be Yat-Sen for that reason as well. Just because haven't seen it doesn't mean it couldn't happen though.

Now you're talking about serious whaling again! T10's are over $100!

They add 4 or 5 every year... I think 4?

[Nepgear]

Black because it's funny, or Enterprise.

[sneakybass]

For me I want a black ship that i play to spend money on.... WG has so many ships to choose from I don't think i would ever pick the one WG would choose.

[christof]

I would love to see Benham or Georgia, but we won't. Fairly sure of that.

Halfway suspect we might get to see a submarine. Even though the number of possible choices isn't big on that front.

I do think Velos could happen, despite its age. Kearsarge wasn't that long in the game either, nor was Chkalov. I don't think we'll get it though. I do kind of think we might get to see a Blyskawica B though. Don't ask why, may be because European DDs just got expanded.

Ägir B anyone? I could see that. And maybe a Zeven Provincien or Groningen, just to give the Dutch their first Black ship.

[Hiei]

I'm trying to remember all the black ships

I see a lot of free ones listed, but aren't all the Black ships premiums? (I know Kearsarge is coal?)

[christof]

List of all current Black ships (leaving out the B, because they obviously all have it):

Alaska
Asashio
Atago
Atlanta
Chkalov
Cossack
Dunkerque
Graf Zeppelin
Jean Bart
Kaga
Kearsarge
Loyang
Mainz
Massachusetts
Napoli
Pommern
Saipan
Scharnhorst
Shinonome
Sims
Tirpitz
Yoshino

Yeah so they're all Premiums/Freemiums (Armory ship)
I could see Missouri B, that would be neat.
There doesn't seem to be much pattern
Jean Bart and Massachusetts both got a B version but I can't think of any crazy good BBs this year? (Though I'm sure there will be one for each class)

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we ended up with Somers B!

[sneakybass]

Come to think about it ,It will never be Bourgogne I would not think.

[sneakybass]

Well I wonder who's guess will pan out later this year......

No, I don't think they'd ever sell a steel ship. A lot of people would be REALLY angry about that.

I'm sure we won't of course, but that'd be really funny!

I don't see why they wouldn't do Benham or Georgia. They did Massachusetts and that was pulled for exactly the same reasons. Borderline too strong and too popular.

I will be surprised if we don't see a submarine. They're pushing them like the future of the game depends on it. They're now forcing you to play them in order to finish a collection.

I would say Blyskawica is as likely as anything - perhaps more so.

I can't be excited about Agir myself, but also seems like a logical choice.
