MEET the Light Cruiser "Silverwind"!

[p]Hello, soldiers![/p][p]I've noticed that many of you are primarily interested in the naval aspect of the game, which is nice because it's a type of warfare that has always attracted me.[/p][p][/p][p]I remember when I was little and my parents took me to the seaside; I spent hours on the rocks reading books about World War II naval battles that my father had bought me. There weren't many pictures in those books, so my imagination ran wild, and the real smell of salt air gave my imagination a more realistic feel.[/p][p][/p][p]Back to us, today I present to you the light cruiser: "Silverwind"![/p][p][/p][p]Light cruisers are ships capable of operating autonomously in a variety of missions, but they are at their best when used to hold off smaller vessels.[/p][p]These ships are fast and quite imposing, although they can't match the might of a dreadnought.[/p][p][/p][p]The Silverwind can accommodate four crew members.[/p][p]All can use 12.7 mm machine guns and 40 mm flak cannons.[/p][p]The first three members have two turrets (front and rear) with each equipped with two 155 mm guns.[/p][p]The fourth member cannot use guns, but has two triple torpedo launchers, which are lethal against slower-moving targets.[/p][p]You can see how, if each member equipped themselves with anti-aircraft weapons, this ship would be able to enforce a naval "no-fly zone" within its weapons' range, something larger ships cannot do.[/p][p][/p][p]The Silverwind's two main weaknesses are:[/p][p]- the lack of truly heavy armor;[/p][p]- the lack of weapons for attacking units below the surface of the sea.[/p][p][/p][p]How would you use this vessel in battle?[/p][p]Do you have friends who would like to share steel and salt with you?[/p][p][/p][h3]THE ONLY GOOD BUG IS A DEAD BUG![/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]
