SS-if you like a easy kill
BB-if you want to have fun

Dont go cv, we already have plenty of crappy ones as it is.

CV - High credit gain.

Make a CV (for the love of god read a guide about making a CV crew because if i see you launching 6+ planes on one pilot i... well i don't care but doing so i BAD) and use the credit gain to support a SS or BB line.
Also they need less crew than a BB.

Subs have notoriously bad exp and they don't get good till SS3.
On the upside they don't need as much crew compared to CVs and BBs.

Battleships are good but you need a lot of crew and the exp is tightely connected to hod well you play.
You can get 100k exp or more or get oneshotted by a Montana right at the start and get 200 exp.

CV- best to credit and lvling some extra slot like Ss, BB Bo.
In Blitz useless until you get another cv to fight or get DB, TB.
In GB, boring with CV1-3 you send meatplane to death but u get xp ...

SS- SS1,SS2 are a pain in the back, you almost run to get 1 dmg to get xp, u cant chase anyone.
SS with crew 120, high dp, can stand against BB salve or a full torp launch face to face, evade them, there are like cat but 2 lifes (about 40K dp).

BB- extra slot lvling like CV
In Blitz BB is powerfull (depending nation too) but u ll last til lvl 63 limit.
In Gb BB1 are meatship for other BB, SS even pCA.
Don't forget launch your scout you ll get xp.


I would advise you CV, and lvling extra crew to T3 at least and choose afterward.

Depends what you want out of the game.

If you want to join pubbie rooms and kill people without concentrating, go SS.

If you want more than that, go BB/CV. Currently CV plays like a support role, with BB bringing the DPS or in the cases of armoured ships, being the tanks.

I would go IJN CV line to start making credits. Unless you want to miss certain ships in your BO tree because you lack creds.

If you plan at some point to go all SS, CV and BB in the end, i would say go with BB first then CV then SS.

Reason being, you can use the BB support sailors on your SS and CV.. mainly Engineers for SS's and a mix of Engnieers, Repairs and gunners on CV.

Ultimatly it will mean you SS an CV will have better OH (over heat), repair snd SD than if you went either of these lines first.. before going BB.

Although it does mostly depend on which nation you plan to go for each, and are you planning on just leveling everything for 1 nation or go for mulitple nations..

Either way if you have a BB crew high lvl for the nation.. your SS and CV will perform better in SD, Repair and OH.

just let me see if you will spam BOMBERS and I will make you regret that you will hit only few bombs and low attacks I will make sure of it you will learn a lesson!... CV should load FP"S not crappy BOMBERS.. bombers should me use wiseley
