there is not much diffrences if you class it late or not

I knew we'd all had this discussion before:

My personal conclusion is that if you want to, you can class late and decide through
calculations (that I'm too lazy to do) when you want to reach the Acc / Rel cap. It's
much easier, however, to just class your sailors on time and if you're obsessing
about weight, trim recruits once you've hit the caps. That way, if they ever raise the
caps, you can just right-click and expert-grind, and VOILA, you're at the new cap
again.

Also, it's not that hard to roll 11/11 gunners. Just takes patience is all. Spend a half-
hour of mindless rolling and you'll almost certainly find a pair (plus a whole crapload
of +12 supports and maybe a fighter or bomber you can level and sell). Two, if
you're lucky. Now 12's... those are the hard ones.

Not everyone can get what they want.

It's not like everyone that has luck rolling those uber gunners, not everyone that will
spend fortune to buy them knowing neut rollers will tend to try to ripp off when they get
such high base.
And not everyone, can get elite either.

Unless you can sell a pair of elite for 500k I would then consider it :P

ffs

get 12acc/11rld gunners class them as RLD and class on time...your gona hit ACC
cap at mid/late 70ish and RLD cap in mid/late 80ish BVEed ofcourse...

it's just that simple -.-

**Uhm. Classing them up gives you more sailors per level than leaving them to class late.
More sailors means more experts and veterans, equals more true ability. **

Technically true, but it's not those 10 extras experts for delaying 10 lvls that will make
a huge difference .
Unless, you are able to bypass the integer system in vets and experts.

Uhm. Classing them up gives you more sailors per level than leaving them to class late.
More sailors means more experts and veterans, equals more true ability.

3 special reasons to delay classing:
RELOAD GUNNERS case only.

Either you really hate your spread at low lvl, classing late from 10-15 lvls will let you
have better spread in the 70-80(bve) instead of 85+(bve) because of the new cap patch.
Do this, if you don't mind reaching the reload cap a bit later and care about spread in
the low lvl.
@Danita, I just don't agree that part. It's actually much more, over 5 levels as minimum
for sure.


Or, class reload gunners late in order to optimize your rookies removal.
It means you would be able to trim much more efficiency as the accuracy ability is much
more higher. Therefore, your true accuracy ability will be hurt less faster by removing them.
At lower lvl you won't be able to do much, but at higher level, you would be
able to remove much more rookies to have a lighter weight sailor.
For the freak speedwhore/armoured whore only who are on crack about a small ton of difference.


Or, if you're a love experts burner trying vets them for fun. You can burn an incredible
ammount of experts without altering the reload and accuracy.
Plus, if you're lucky and get vets, your gunners will provide a better repair rate(once
you get your experts back from shelling/farming/aaing). This
may only be obvious combine with supports only.

Consider a km rapid fire the UK reload gunners, which get penalized much more in accuracy
but benefit less than uk reload in term of ability and have a smaller crew growth than UK
gunners.
Back in the time when I had like 140 vets and all experted, I would burn everything and
leave about 150 experts.
Times has passed, and vets conversion are successfull. Allowing me to burn much more experts.

Now, I can burn all experts on my rapid gunners, without altering the reload and spread.
I am the winning here. Because I will slowly have a better repair rate ability combines
with my supports.
And I am still a winner if they fix the aaw ability back. I will not only have a higher
true aaw ability because of my abnormal number of vets, but will reload cap/accuracy cap.
Complicated to understand my post?

Don't worry, this will take time to understand.
0$ spend to get them to 220+ vets, I didn't waste my time at all. Wasting time would be
trying to get experts back because your accuracy/spread was worse.


Oh psst, because UK will benefit a higher ammount of accuracy and a higher crew growth
than a chief rapid fire ( 7/8/9/10? vs 6) per level, you may be able to burn much more by
delay classing.











Now, you can disagree if you want. I just hope you can give an interesting asnwer.

always same questions and always wrong answers....

it does matter how u class ur UK gunners, u are thinking good on classing them late as
rel-rel gunners.
i wont explain why, just to those that saying classing late = food, not true, and if u
guys don't know how it goes with abilities and caps pls don't misslead ppl,ty.

It's not worth it to delay classing UK reload gunners.
You don't gain anything from delaying classing for a few levels. Only when you delay
classing to the mid 60's or later do you maybe get to the ACC cap 1 or 2 levels
earlier. But you'll take a much bigger hit on the reload cap.
Totally not worth it.
