Now basic skills you must use are either Priority target or Preventive Maintenance, Last Stand, Demolition Expert (unles using RN CAs in which case use Superintendent), and Concealment Expert. These are my basic CA skills since they will help hide you, set fires, last stand saves your life a lot of times since just like DDs your armor is weak and your engine and steering get taken out often, and reduced effectiveness when that happens is better than being 100% dead in the water. ( That is part of the reason Graf Spee has formidable reputation with some players, is in part thanks to it’s torpedoes, same with IJN cruisers) Naturally you can’t expect to go right out and use the torpedoes every battle, but the situations that are right for using your Torps are very much worth having them onboard. I also went AA build on my Cleveland so that I can burn the planes out of the sky for my team, which some tones requires me to camp out behind a strategically located island so that my team can advance without fear of easy air attack.Ĭruisers that get torpedoes can have extra fun by ambushing enemy ships inniskan areas or even laying some Torps to discourage pursuit. That’s why on Cleveland I actually take Spotter plane instead of radar so I can fire long range when facing tier X ships. The BB can burn and May Fire back and your location, but if you are onnthe move and have gone dark they often will miss you entirely. But especially if your CA has good Concealment, range, and fire chances you can fire off a few shells light fires, then go dark. Now in general you don’t want to go full on brawl with a BB if it’s a contest of how much armor both of you have and how big the guns are, you can imagine how that goes down. There are some Cruisers that can easily trick you into thinking they are Battleships thanks to their relatively heavy guns and decent armor, while other cruisers will never let you forget they are cruisers. They range from setting tons of fires, hinting CAs, hunting DDs, being AA escorts, and some like IJN I often feel are like oversized Gunboat DDs. And you learn how to citadel CAs so that you can avoid the same fate, and DDs teach you about rapid fire guns and torpedoes.Īs for the roles CAs fill they vary depending on the CA. To play Cruisers I have found it’s good to have logged in some good practice with BBs and DDs, since CAs are the in between class.
