Niord

Island Hopper

Created by

CategoryStealth
Description11 km detectability on a BB is disgusting. Introducing Niord; this ship will be an island hopping menace, launching 10 torps every 90s. this concealment will let you get really close to the enemy and they won't know until its to late. You can start the battle by sitting near the edge of your firing range and shooting HE at BBs to set fires. Then go dark and move uncomfortably close to the enemy and launch torps and load their broadside with AP shells. Quickly turning with your hair-trigger rudder, you can launch the other side of torps if need be. Wash, Rince, and Repeat for carnage.
