  • Torps on a York?

Hey guys first time posting here so I'll try to keep it brief. Recently aquired a York class ca. Got it outfitted and all
that fun stuff. Went into my first battle and pulled along side an enemy. We do some broadside tennis for a bit
until I see that I am low on dp. As I get ready to die, I unload 12 torps into his side. He then says "LOL torps on
a York?"

Did I do something wrong when I outfitted my York and put 6x4 barrel launchers on my York? Not much of an AA
guy, but if that is all the York is good for I guess I could work it out. It just seems with that many T slots it would
make an ok torp boat. And I know IJN is the torp whore nation, I just use it as a last resort thing, or when a
great oppertunity pops up.

Also, kinda off topic but I don't want to post twice. Could anyone tell me roughly how much a 11/11 acc/reload
level 20 neutral sailor is worth?

Thanks in advance guys!

Either a cv or a sub would be my next project after a bb4 or 5. Cv seems like a cash machine but I don't like the
plane interface very much. I've been leveling a couple pilots, but torp men aren't that bad.

Put front guns only and no torps.

With york you should be distance fighting, and with torps you need to get in close risking
enemy torps. Do not play broadside tennis, just kill the other ship while dodging. With
two front guns you dont have to go broadside, hippers, county, balti and mogami are for
broadsiding. Snipe from range on people that drive straight... while you do zick-zack
dodging avoiding broadside hits.

Since torpedo sailors can be used for uboat crew it is now more usefull using torps on non
ijn ships to lvl these sailors.

30k Attack in a CA in Blitz is shockingly bad. You should be farming rooms.

The real problem with York is, that it really fast reach its weight-limit. I have a Lvl 55
Crew and its impossible to mount the L Guns, except i skip one sailor.
And what is sad about the shared XP, torps on a CA work in several games. I saw enough CAs
with Torps and yesterday i was really surprised when a NoHa rushed in and released 2
Broadsides of Torps, shortly before she dies. But the best part was, that she sunk 2 CAs
and a CL. The Noha didnt shot a single round and made 30k attack. I stayed on range, fired
nearly all my shells and came on 29k. So sadly but in a few cases its really works.
In the old days the NoHa would have died under a mass of shells, before she could get half
the way between the Battlelines.
