to me, i find it hard to play ijn and sn and usn bbs, my reason is the 45 degree, i really
find myself can't hit anyone with this kind of angle...

i play km and ijn both bbs and cvs.

My opinion is that IJN is more fun than KM. Mogami cl/ca rocks is much better (at
least it was from what i remember) fun than the km. When you get to BB lvl you can
actually do some damage with the IJN BBs contrary to KM ones which it feels like
that you are throwing stones to a wall.
Obviously the tactics used for the 2 nations are completly different. Since you have
to implemented ninja tactics to get in range with IJN where as with km you have the
same range from BB1 -BB3 which is kind of boring. Game after game is all the same.
CVs i would say IJN is harder as you food for everything. I got the akagi remodel and
GZ. With KM at least i get to shoot something down.

SO conclusions:
KM BB is the hardest i believe and IJN CV.

My 2 cents

interesting so i have a reason to blame something then me:)
but i agree unless for kita ijn is tough in lower levels.

In my opinion, IJN is the hardest nation to play.
-Extreme hang time which means a really good predicting shot is needed almost all the time.
-Paper armor, can't take much (if any) damage before it's crippled
-Huge rear of a ship which makes turning and running while being shot at a bad idea.
-Decent AA (used to be the best before MN and USSR) (weird angles)
-Worst pilots in the game (aside from DB)
-Somewhat slow compared to some other nations
-Subs are quite decent (high dud rate)
-Everything from DD to CA sucks (with the exception of the kita it's some fun)
-110 guns hit like they're 12" guns and don't quite do the damage you think a gun of that
size would do
-1st set of Naga guns are better than the higher level set of Naga guns
-Perhaps the worst BB3-BB4 in the game
-Slowest subs

Yeah, I have a 120 Super Yamato and the Amagi.
Why do I choose to play IJN? Simply because it is the hardest nation in the game. It's a
great challenge and makes everything a lot more involved than just UK AW/Durability, KM
Range, US Firepower, MN AW/FP, and USSR Range/FP/Durability. With IJN, you actually have
to dodge the shells.


These are my personal opinions, I don't care if you disagree with me or not.

Eli,

In my opinion the amagi is one of the easier bb6's but that's just me being who i am. I
love the hangtime on it cause it's a defensive ship and it's fun to just pelt people with
it at 45 degrees and nearly 1 shot or 1 shot them :D

The four original nations of NF:

USA - "Balanced", "Great AA" (actually, pretty bad AA, but good AAW FWIW)
KM - "Range", "Speed" (actually, half-mm range difference at top-tiers, slow speed)
IJN - "Great Torps, Diverse CVs" (but the CVs suck and the BBs are neglected)
UK - Easy Mode

Hardest BB - KM is easier early, IJN is easier later (generally speaking), but both are
pretty hard

Hardest CV - UK & IJN

Hardest Subs - KM is to subs as the UK is to BBs

Overall: IJN is probably the hardest nation. KM takes skill for BB, but its strengths
are tremendous for those who know how to play them (especially at CL/CA/BB1-3)
and the KM has great CV and SS

I personally grew up o 45 degree angles but i hear from most people, even people that are
really good at driving them that IJN bb5/6s are the hardest to play and get accustomed to.
Some people think you have to be psychic to play the amagi well with its 6 sec hangtime.

After the T4 fighter patch IJN or MN fighters are the hardest to play with due to the
simple fact that they are hard to play with unless dragged all over the place like the
player is smoking crack.

UK is by far the easiest

I've played all the US subs, dub rate is ridiculous and same for UK. IJN CV's t3's just
get shredded, I prefer high angles but i'm used to the monty which can take a good whack
and keep going unlike the super yami.

i agree with UK CV, as i am suffering with it now...lol...

for BB play, i agree its either KM or IJN as the hardest... personally i hate the 45 degree
angles but i prefer the low angles of KM...

never really tried subs though...not that i care much bout them...:))

IJN's fighters are worse kin the t3's at least =/

KM or IJN for BB

US and UK for subs

UK and IJN for CV
