I've got an Omaha that is giving me trouble. My first problem is I can't use any weapons
on the T-launchers. I get a "No force" message even with the right sailor mounted. My
most recent problem is when I try to enter a game room, I get a message telling me to make
sure I loaded ammo. I get this message even when both lockers have ammo, so I am
currently unable to use the Omaha at all. Does anyone have any suggestions?
At my wits end, m94haley
P.S. I have filed a ticket, just wanted to see if anyone else might have dealt with this
problem. (Scout prob fixed. I feel stupid.)

Don't forget the CLIII Heavy Engine, which gives my overweight crew 55/45 without an
Engineer...or the nice angles for the guns. Or the massive amount of armor you can put on it.

Seriously, this thing is very good at pretty much anything you want to do.

Omaha is a great ship. Most people to are to stupid to use it.

Ive killed a BB2 with the omaha, lol. Went right up to him, and i bounced his 14"... lmao.

Great SpeedWhore.
Great ArmorWhore.
Great AA-Ship.
Great ASW.


Omaha T-slots are bugged, even if you put a correct sailor on it, it will always say no force.

Omaha is not a bad ship.

admittedly I have not used it much, but I see the potential. compass is certainly not
entirely unjustified in glorifying it.

I, on the other hand, hold a soft spot for the brooklyn. and not just because it nukes DDs
in blitz.

If your 7" shells are bouncing, you're not aiming low enough. A full block of those will
take off 2K DP a shot.

Honestly, omaha is bad. I've played it way before shared XP in normal rooms. All it could
do was to run away and poof the 7" shells which bounced most of the time due to the low
angle shot.

Omaha is a great ship. It is not "just an AA ship." You have probably never seen it as
an ASW or a CL-killer ship.

That being said, scroll down on the gun list and ensure all guns have ammo. I see your 5
front mounts have ammo, and one of your rear mounts has ammo, but none of the other ones I
can see. You may have missed those. Also, consider carrying double ammo on the A turret
and Z turrets, since those have firing arcs on both sides, while the wing mounts only fire
on their associated side.

Gunners are fine. I see no reason why the support sailor can't use torpedoes, but to be
honest, the T slots on the Omaha are pretty shoddy even with HH because of their position
on the ship. You'd probably be best off going guns-only.
