The first shots are exchanged at twenty-three hundred yards.

Fire and smoke flash in the toothed maw of the low-slung obsidian horror cruising through the misty waters. Some cold, detached part of your mind traces the contrail of the shell as it rips through the fog, arcing high before plummeting right for you -

- the blast lifts 305 from below, jolting the deck against your feet. The hiss-whumph of compressed air hits your ears again as the weapons officer sings out; “Tube Three - fish in the water!”

“Hard to port and emergency deep!” you cry. 305 responds adroitly to the helm as she noses into the Sunda Strait, her wake foaming as she picks up speed entering her true element.

Hisss-whump. “Tube Four - fish in water!”

You shuffle around the deck as you turn with the periscope, keeping the cross-hairs on the fog-shrouded shape of the monster, now careening into a hard turn - he's heard the high-speed screws screaming his way.

Six. Seven Eigh- the muzzle blast slapping aside the morning mist; the scream of a high-velocity shell tearing over the conning tower close enough to hear through the pressure hull.

“ALL STOP!” you demand hoarsely, “and hard to starboard!” Slapping the scope's handles flush with the shaft, you send it sinking down into its recess in the floor - it can only give you away now. You brace against the chart table, staring down at it as your nape shrivels, sensing the incoming salvo you're trying to dodge.

Hiss-whump. “Tube Fi-” the warrant officer's cut short by another blastwave that goes ringing through the hull from bow to keel.

“The hell is that?” Wei asks you. “K-guns?”

“ASW shells,” you reply grimly. “Helm, flank speed. Make course two-two-zero.”
>>
“Shells?” Wei says quietly, eyes fixed on the computer plot tracking your outbound fish. The display's strictly COTS stuff, and even if it wasn't there's only so much data to be wrung out of your boats old hydrophones. It's all riding on the weapons officers now, their eyes grimly fixed on oscilloscopes as they grip small joysticks white-knuckled, controlling their fish on unspooling wires. The software can supplant their hydrophones for your boats, but they can't compare or collate data. There's only one thing for sure - the Abyssals are running.

“Blunt-nosed, subsonic,” you reply quietly. “High arc trajectory, won't skip or break up. Hits you at periscope depth. If he'd had common loaded, we'd be dead now.”

Your XO turns his wrist over to check his watch. The destroyers slowed down to track you when they heard you start cavitating at depth - now they're accelerating to flank, trying to outrun your fish. Your sonarman heard them making close to 40 knots, earlier - and your fish top out at thirty-five. You can't turn with the wires unspooling, and you can't reload, either.

There's nothing to do but wait.

The men managing fish one and two lean forward in their small chairs, sweat trickling down their face as they burn the oscilloscope’s wavering line into their eyes. Small lights come on, telling them what the torpedo's automatic guidance and 305s computer wants to chase - but they both over-ride it, pushing their joysticks sideways to line up on the smaller, steadier signal. #1s operator releases a stale breath as his screen goes dark - and slumps as #2 station's operator follows suit. They both turn towards the sonar console.

Your head sonarman swivels back and gives them a solemn nod.

Two minutes later the warrant officer on station five slumps in his chair, looking sick. He doesn't have to say anything - his fish ran out of juice. Six follows next. Then four - and three.

“Got one,” your XO breathes. It's as good an epitaph as any Ming boat can hope for.

“Range? you ask quietly.

“Seven-thousand or so,” your sonarman replies quietly.

“Helm, ahead-two thirds,” you order. The confirmation drifts by your ears as you stare at the lines on the computerized chart, denoting the bearings of the incoming signals and their roughly-estimated range. The other two are coming for you, and they're pissed off, their sonar banging away on active, hunting for you.

But even active sonar works best if you slow down to hear the echoes better. And they'll be loath to slow much, lest they catch more torpedoes. And they must have lost track of you during that mad dash at flank with you in their baffles.

You eyeball the distance as sonar pulses ring off your boat's old hull, sweat trickling down your face as you calculate reload times. They'll be on top of you before you can reload the bow tubes, but you've still got fish astern.

Two. Two, exactly.

[ ] Let your sub sit silent on the sandy bottom while your position is still somewhat ambiguous to reduce your active sonar signature - and wait. You've only got two fish left - you've got to make every shot count, from close range. If they had standoff ASW aside from those shells, they'd have used them by now - and the shells only work on boats at periscope depth.

[ ] Keep your speed up and keep tacking away from them - in water this shallow they'll find you sooner or later. You've got a maneuverable boat, loud decoys and a noisy surface duct to work with. Buy time to reload your tubes, and keep taking standoff-range shots to keep them busy till help arrives. ASEAN would have to be deaf not to notice this brawl.

Letting the sub just sit there is ASKING to be depth charged, and in water this shallow, there's little chance they'll not hit us, and in this noise, we have a better chance at running and drawing them off, besides we don't know if abyssal air is in play or not

It goes against EVERY instinct I learned playing 688 Attack Sub and SSN-21 Seawolf back in my misspent youth, but... this is a situation where being a hole in the water would be fatal. And unlike those, the people the noise attracts are going to HELP you, not try to kill you...

You're not hitting truly making-a-loss-per-game crap until you hit tier IX, at least with the current economy.

Gold isn't anywhere near necessary if you do a decent amount of damage per game, even at Tier VIII.

The Königsberg is one of the best non-premium credit earners in the game; with it's goddamn 6" Super-AP machineguns.

For no particular reason a long-forgotten quotation from an American skipper surfaces in your mind - “when you shoot at a destroyer and miss, it's like hitting a wildcat in the ass with a banjo.” These two seem like wolves - you see one bearing peel away from its neighbor as the other closes fast.

“They're using hunter-killer,” your XO says grimly. You nod silent agreement. One's peeling off to maintain standoff, drifting while it bangs away with active to guide the other in on your position via radio. Turn your bow towards the spotter, and the killer's own sonar gets a good bounce off your broadside. Simple, lethal, and effective.

But you've got a few toys the U-boats never had. As the first boat comes in hard and fast for its depth-charge run, you order a course splitting the angle between your persecutors. When the abyssal's close enough to make out his machinery noises, you make your move.

“Hard to starboard!”

Your helmsman puts her hard over, turning your stern towards the spotter ship. There's a soft “bump” sound as your signaling tubes fire - an active sonar decoy slipping into the water in your wake. More than a simple noisemaker, it generates a cloud of bubbles that forms an effective “knuckle,” a knot of turbulence that reflects sound waves.

“Emergency back!”

305 shudders slightly as her shaft's inertia fights the new pull of the motors - and then the screws begin digging in backwards, slowing your forward progress. The abyssal thunders overhead, blinded by his speed as he strains to outrace his own -

- “depth charges,” your sonarman reports, sounding a bit incredulous, despite hundreds of tons of high explosive sinking towards you. Not even ASEAN still uses them regularly. Every asshole on board clenches tight for the first thunderous, muffled blasts.

The first detonation lifts you an inch off your feet, your teeth clicking together sharply. The second lifts 305s bow, pitching men against bulkheads. Then you stop counting, the hammerblows thundering through the water to crash into the pressure hull from all sides. You hunch your shoulders instinctively, dreading the next blast, even though you know a direct hit will kill you before you realize what happened.

Then it ends, the Abyssal's churning screws fading into the distance.

“Damage!?” you demand.

“Minor flooding in fore torpedo. Chief says they're good to keep loading.”

They'd better be, you think. The spotter's charging in now, taking his turn at bat as the other one cuts engines and drifts, guiding him in on his attack run. The first battering told you one thing - they've got K-guns to spread their depth charge pattern out to each side, the better to catch tricky maneuvers like yours. They saw your turn, but were only able to range on the knuckle. You can't possibly stop dead in the water, so they assumed signal degradation from the end-on aspect and assumed you held same speed-

“They're old,” Wei says.

“What,” you growl, eyes still fixed on the incoming destroyer's plot.

“No standoff. No torpedoes. Not even hedgehogs,” he says. “They don't know about active decoys and they think we accelerate half as good as we do. World War One - early Two, maybe.”

“Yes, and?” you ask pointedly, sweat trickling down your brow.

“They're not stupid. They're going to figure it out.”

The second destroyer comes in for its run, the plot clocking her at thirty-seven knots. You order a hard-right turn early this time. Your helmsman keeps his brass wheel spinning like a dervish, snapping it opposite when you bark at him, “knuckle!” Rapid fluttering of the rudder churning the water into turbulent false contacts periodically through your emergency turn, giving the impression of a longer, continuous contact. Another turn to the left - more flutters, more knuckles - and you hold this one, pointing your bow at the distant spotter long enough to launch a decoy.

“Bring us up!”

“SIR!?”

“UP, DAMMIT! UP!”

Your crewmen are already responding, 305 pitching her nose up as she claws for the misty surface. Above, your enemy has already picked which cluster of contacts look most promising and is attacking, charges splashing into the water.

Every man on the bridge jumps off the deck when something clangs against the sail. There's a few brief, sonorous clunks down the side, not four feet to your left. Twenty later God kicks 305 in the ass, your boat shuddering violently as the charge detonates below you, fuzed for your old depth.

“Sir, we've got a shaft or a prop off-balance!” comes the DC report. “Engineering recommends limiting speed to 17 knots!”

Your XO gives you a stern look. You read the unspoken truth in his eyes - you can't keep this up very long. Twice your enemy's passed ahead, and your only live fish are astern.

We are not Sam Dealy and we are also a much bigger target than the manlet, we don't have the same room for error that he gets (especially with leveling effect), and we're in a fucking Ming-class running half the speed of the enemy (which is admittedly faster than Harder can move underwater).

>>
>>151187
>We are not Sam Dealy and we are also a much bigger target than the manlet,

Actually the Ming class is a bit smaller than a Gato - considerably shorter, a little narrower and with a much deeper draft, because the hull's shaped to optimize underwater performance. And it's only 500 tons heavier.

The maneuvers you've been pulling off here are ones far in excess of what Harder can do - with 18 knots at flank to work with you're considerably more maneuverable than Harder at 8, and your boat's much more nimble in the water due to modern design.

By the same token, your torpedoes are kind of shit by any standard, and the spooky ghost effects have guaranteed that they're even worse. Passive-only? Russia pls

interesting. Very interesting. But harder does have one major advantage and that's his deck armament.
But still, physically we are indeed a larger target than Harder because he normally doesn't manifest his hull in combat, heck I'm not sure if he's manifested his hull period, so essentially an Abyssal depth charging the manlet has to hit a target the size of your average scuba diver instead of one the size of a semi truck

SSBNs rotate between two crews to maximize uptime. While one crew is out at sea, the other is on land for training and a bit of R&R. Then the sub pulls into port, both crews unite to restock the sumbitch, and the other crew takes it out to sea while the one hangs out above the waterline.
TL;DR there are always SSBN crews with internet access.
Pretty sure the ones at sea don't have access, because their entire sea tours pretty much consist of "be sneaky so that people don't know where we're hiding enough nukes to glass their asses", but I was a carrier boy so don't take my word for it.

Kiso. One of the Kuma-class.

As the other destroyer turns in to begin its attack run, a strange feeling starts buzzing through your blood. You can feel the fear surging through your veins; the ice-cold grip of fanatical discipline beaten into you in officer candidacy school - even the quiet, instinctive voice reminding you that the Political Officer is always watching. But this strange thrumming through your being is new. Something's resonating deep within, something about this whole thing that your heart's realized before your head.

“Hard to starboard!” 305 comes about neatly, swinging her bow towards the new spotter ship, giving the new attacker a good look at your broadside.

“All astern full!” you order. There's a brief exchange of puzzled glances, but it doesn't slow any hands as they comply with your order. Your boat continues to swing through its turn, bow turning end-on to the cold, chilling pings echoing off your hull - and past, towards the attacking destroyer approaching at a right-angle to his fellow. 305s batteries are discharging fast, screws fighting your inertia. You're too slow, now - and you're about to be run down. Eyes flicker towards you nervously, then back to their gauges as the rapid beating of the destroyer's cavitating props grows loud enough to hear unaided, thrumming through the hull. You watch the tactical plot keenly, waiting for the forty-five degree arc behind your boat to intersect the enemy-

“Fire Seven!” you command, and a second later a Yu-4 is thundering into the water from your stern tube. Screaming in at flank speed the attacker doesn't hear it, but his buddy does - you hear him taking evasive action immediately, heeling into a hard emergency turn to put his stern to the incoming fish. The tight turn robs him of speed, and with your close-range launch, chances are good you can catch him.

“He's using decoys,” one of your torpedomen grunts, gritting his teeth as he focuses on his osiliscope. “Like before. Maybe a jackhammer, too.”

“What?”

“Early acoustic jammer,” he replies. Apparently he does read the briefings. “I could use active-”

“Do it,” you say, and a second later your own sonars are banging away, pinpointing your own fish, the fleeing destroyer and his decoys. The flank sonar arrays are more precise than the bow-mounted transducer; and your crew trained in recognizing the devices - your man threads his fish carefully through the decoys and into the wake of the fleeing destroyer. You watch his instruments carefully, resisting the urge to cross the control room and hover over his shoulder - he knows what he's doing, and all you can do is distract him.

“FUCK!” he snarls, squeezing his trigger to detonate the fish before he slams a fist into the console. “He was outrunning me. I was this close. I might've dinged his prop. I didn't. FUCK!”

“Doesn't matter,” you reply.

“... sir?” Wei asks.

“We're sailing backwards now,” you point out. A sub sails almost as fast in reverse as it does forward, due to its streamlined shape - at least an old, noisy screw-propelled job like this one, that is. And after all the Excitement you just gave your friends in an already noisy surface duct, you doubt they cottoned to you swapping end for end.

They know you spent your fish - six forward tubes were standard in their day, as well - which is why they're taking pains to stay out of your stern arc at close ranges, even if playing it safe means putting their pattern down too distant to kill you. They've got you in the shallows, and they think they've got all day.

“Here they come again,” Wei announces - and indeed they are, charging hard. They know how long it takes to load a tube, too - and they figure you just loosed your shot soon as it was nocked. They're safe for another several minutes, for at least two or three more runs - so they're both coming in now, line abreast. It's what you with particularly stubborn contacts - a rain of explosives too wide and long to escape.

“Make heading one-one-four degrees,” you order calmly.

The range ticks down rapidly as you sail backwards from the Abyssals closing for the decisive blow. They circle to the right, then cut in sharply once they're clear of your supposed stern arc. Again you turn your “bow” to them at close range to cloak your evasives against their sonar - but they've slowed to twenty-five knots or so to keep contact with you, confident that you've blown your wad.

“Fire Eight!”

Hiss-whump.

“STARBOARD!” you bark, but the helmsman's already hurling his wheel to sidestep the incoming enemies even as your fish roars through the water. They both hear it coming, turning hard to evade - but your target catches the fish halfway through her turn. The thunderous blast reverberates off the shallow bottom to grumble against the keel of your boat, mingling with the volcanic growling of Krakatoa's deep subsurface caldera not twenty miles distant.

“All ahead full!” you order, “and hard starboard!” Tube #1 will be ready in moments-

- but the abyssal isn't inclined to give you them. “Contact is inbound at thirty-four knots, estimate nine-hundred-”

“Ping!” you order, and the ping rings out from your bow array -

“SIX HUNDRED AND CLOSING-”

Going from reverse full to ahead full to reverse full with damaged screws will probably leave us dead in the water.
Going deep when he's got a good track on us and pattern throwers will leave us sitting ducks.
Surfacing will probably get us shot but it should keep us safe from the depth charges. No good options, really

So while we wait warmly for Deme to update, have a funny story that just happened a few seconds ago. Here's some context. I am in my office right now, sipping on a carafe full of Ranger Coffee and laughing my ass off at KCQ, chunnimomboat, and the internet in general. From my desk you can just barely see the front desk of the hospital. The private manning the desk looks over at me everytime I start laughing and I will just stare at him. I finally got up and went over to talk with him. Conversation is as follows.
"Evening sir."
"Evening, you want some of this *RC is offered*"
"Thank you sir, if it helps you then maybe it'll help me pass the time."
"Oh I'm sure that this isn't the only thing that's passing our time."
"Sir?"
"Is that Shikihime Garden you're playing?"
"Umm, uhh, sir I'm not sure-"
"Bullshit your friends, bullshit your family, bullshit your immediate superior, don't try and bullshit me about that kind of stuff."
"Yes sir, sorry sir."
"No harm no foul. I'm more of a KanColle guy myself."
"You play kancolle sir?!"
"Yeah, you got a shipfu?"
"Nagato sir."
"Your waifu is shit." I whisper. "shit~."
And then I went back in my office.

“EMERGENCY BLOW! EMERGENCY BLOW!” you order. “HARD TO PORT!”

305 shudders and roars as thousands of PSI go screaming through her labyrinthine miles of internal pipelines, emptying her ballast tanks in one thunderous moment. The boat lurches and lunges under your feet like a live animal, sending you reeling against the periscope mast for support as she hurtles towards the surface.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOqalX5FJ2c

Your XO's already studying the tactical plot on the chart table, pinpointing the enemy as your mast-mounted radar comes to life. “BEARING TWO-FIVE FROM BOW!” he shouts. “She's trying to ram!”

“I KNOW!” you reply. “Rudder amidships! Rudder amidships!” Your helmsman brings the wheel to a deft stop, then spins it back adroitly. His cap's fallen off, short-cropped dark hair glistening with sweat as he watches his instruments carefully. 305 is picking up speed much faster on the surface, but-

“Captain, he's still faster, we've got to dive!” Wei insists. The radar has a perfect fix on him, but the sonarman's reading off the active ranging - “four hundred yards!”

The boat lurches and jerks as a shell slams through the sail above your head. Not that it matters, not now. You turn to the boatswain. “Ready boarding crew!”

He picks up the 1MC without blinking. “Boarding crew to stations! Boarding crew to stations!” 305 lurches as another shell smashes into her somewhere foreward - the pressure hull is compromised, now.

“Sir,” someone is saying, “Engineering-”

Fuck engineering. “Range!?”

“Three-hundred!”

You do the math in your head, imaginary protractors spinning out a dozen circles in a few seconds -

“Two-fifty-”

“HARD STARBOARD! HARD STARBOARD! STARBOARD SHAFT, EMERGENCY BACK. STARBOARD SHAFT, EMERGENCY BACK!”

The collision horn sounds as 305 turns her hard nose - her old-fashioned, narrow, knife-shaped, strongly-reinforced and pressure-proofed nose - towards the flank of the monstrous destroyer sailing on an intercept course. You see him shift direction too late.

The collision horn sounds, and you brace for impact.

AND NOW: BACK TO OUR USUAL CAST!

Solemn silence sits heavy on the room, the rattle of the air-conditioning vent the only sound as too-cold air slips under your collar and down your spine. The glossy high-res photograph of the leveled dockyard keeps drawing your eye, but your mind just spins and spins in that rubble, unable to gain traction, much less pick a direction of inquiry. Your little group sits, dismayed and subdued by the magnitude of awful potentials hovering just out of sight, half-glimpsed and imagined.

Unfortunately, “dismayed and subdued” is a relative measure, and not everyone's on the same scale.

“... so?” Kongou asks.

You glance at her. “What?”

“Soooooooooooooo...?” she says, leaning to one side and sliding her head over one shoulder to emphasize the effect.

What!?

“So what are we gonna do!?” she asks impatiently.

You feel your brain starting to fall apart like a diced apple, chunks ungluing from the whole to careen into dark space alone. “What.”

“What,” she says crisply, her British accent returning, “are we going to do?”

“You're asking... me.”

“You're the Admiral!”

You turn to Chief Parker for help - but he, too, is gazing at you like this is indeed your job. You don't bother looking at Hate. You can feel his barely harnessed urge to sit bolt upright and wave his hand in the air like a good little butterbar, eager to put forth solutions you will not want to hear. And he knows you know, the son of a bitch.

“... right. So. Me.”

“Yess, dess!” Kongou affirms with a sharp nod, her chestnut bangs drifting over her eyes.

You look down at the photo.

“How the fuck should I know?” you snap. “I've got a photograph of one leveled Russkie submarine base, and a recording of some super-creepy multi-frequency scream. Do I look like an intel geek to you?” Kongou purses her lips and tilts her head studiously, so you keep going. “This isn't enough to go on. What the hell are we doing? What are we looking for? How are we looking for it? Where do we even start?”

“Oooh,” Hate says, bouncing in his chair a little. “Ooh ooh ooh!”

You studiously ignore him. “Parker, what are the chances that I can make noise about this without getting an angry e-mail from the director of the CIA?”

“Somewhere between fuck and all,” he replies grimly before turning his coffee mug bottoms-up.

“Me! Me!” Hate says, actually raising his goddamned hand now.

You turn to the exuberant Marine. “Yes, Lieutenant?”
“We can-”

“DENIED,” you bellow, doing your damnedest to emulate the voice from Quake III, because Hate respects it infinitely more than your Command Voice. Or your Command. Or you..

“-insertion with a Virgina and do an on-site recon,” he rolls on, completely unfazed.

You open your mouth-

“Yes, sir,” Hate says solemnly, “I want to sneak my big, black submarine into that tight, well-guarded harbor to put a seaman on their forbidden shore.”

You stare at Hate for several long seconds, wondering if you can just raise your cane and... draw the NCO asshole out of him, like poison from a wound. You know the legend of The Process - the bars are an inescapable curse, one often swift and terrible in its transformative powers, sapping men of their will to live like a V-22 feeding on a ground crew's hope.

But you doubt you'll last that long. You open your mouth to make reply-

- and turn as a sharp rapping comes at the door. The Marine guard opens it. “Come here, quick - you've got to see this!”

Explanation:

A single Drifter battleship is able to damn near melt anything that's not a capital - or a well-fit/max defensive-skilled battlecruiser and up, with active support - with a single discharge from their Doomsday-equivalent superweapon.

They have two layers of shields - when the first layer goes down, the Doomsday fires and (usually) slags your ship.

Oh, also, once you attack them, you're on their shitlist permanently until they destroy your ship - they will hunt you down no matter what system you flee to. Lost a Maller in Tama due to that - hard to fight against a pair of Drifter battleships in a cruiser.

TL;DR don't pick a fight with them unless you regularly wolfpack about with buddies.

WHO'S NEXT?
>>
You pile out of the Secure part of the facility and into the dingy break room; old enough that it still carries a faint smell of tobacco (banned for years inside most Navy buildings, of course.) On the weathered-looking CRT TV hanging in a battered metal rack from one corner, you see-

“-a sub!?”

It's an aerial shot of a submarine, nose planted in the stoved-in side of an abyssal destroyer. The two vessels are locked together, crewmen pouring out of the hatches of the sub to sprint for the abyssal's side, firing submachine guns and pistols wildly as they go. You see flashes of light and smoke as grenades detonate on its decks, blue-clad marines swarming the machine. Dark, mishappen shapes are lurching from the superstructure of the monstrous ship, boarding axes and harpoons clutched in carapace-clad pincers.

“What is that?” Parker asks. “WHO is that?”

“No deck gun, smooth conning tower,” Hate says. “Is that a GUPPY II?”

“No,” you say. “No, that's not an old boat.”

“Has to be,” Hate says. “Look at the bow!”

“It just looks like one,” you observe. “It's a goddamned Ming!”

The fight seems to be going well - but as the camera (a news helicopter, it seems,) circles the ships locked in their death-duel, you can see a force of abyssal 'crew' massing on the other side. It's hard to count their number - at first glance they seem just an unusually misshapen boil on the warped, twisted side of the ship - but then they move and roil, dull flashes of black obsidian blades catching the morning's meager light. They're massing to counter-attack across the deck - even as you watch some are scaling the superstructure to the bridge wing as others enter open hatches to cross the beam of the ship.

And then, just like that, they're gone.

There's two, three, four bright flashes, and the ship's flank vanishes in smoke and shrapnel. As the dark clouds drift away to mingle with the thinning morning mist, the scarred flank of the destroyer is revealed, shredded and shattered beasts strewn across the damaged deck, black ichor dripping down the ship's side to spread ugly through the water. As you watch, the ship seems to melt, its gunwales collapsing inward as they soften like hard plastic under a blowtorch. The abyssal destroyer sinks as it collapses, Chinese marines scrambling to clear her decks before it takes them with it. Within seconds the abyssal has vanished into the waters, leaving only the badly damaged Ming, bow crushed as she drifts in her own spreading oil slick.

“... what the hell was that?” Parker breathes.

“Scuttling,” you say quietly. “She scuttled.”

“Who's THAT!” Kongou demands, pointing at the screen. The cameraman's focused on a new arrival - a small one, barely a dot on the water. The resolution's not very good, especially through the fog, but you can make out a large dog at her side, standing at least waist-high to her. As the stiffening wind drags the last of the morning mists off the shallow waters, the swirling gossamer veil swirls around a void in space around her, tracing the outlines of the vessel she once was. You've seen that before - many times, now - but as you study the vague hints of her outline it feels familiar in a different way. A wrong way, subtly elusive; something you've seen all your life but never here, something that should never be here. It's not a shellback bow, flush-deck in rear - and no stacks that you can see. The high, proud prow, designed to cut through waves at high speed, topped by the forward gun mounts - absent. The mist swirls and butts against the flat, wide, huge forecastle, swirling over a vessel with low freeboard fore and aft. It's...

“Kasturi,” Kongou whispers.

Chief Parker turns, and without a word, slinks out of the room.

That's probably based off of her sinking.
She knew she had a lot of wounded, she knew she only had one life boat still intact, she knew a battleship was coming and that the cruisers were still alive. And then she was gone.

The Spica-M that went down with Kasturi (the dog) lit up the destroyer with its 57mm gun fuzed for air-burst. That shreds exposed crew but doesn't do significant structural damage to any sizeable vessel.

Yes, although in some of the write-ups other modern ships have been sunk, so there is the possibility that they could come back.

Ah, so she didn't actually scuttle- she just got her shit pushed in by the little girl and her dog. I expected that might happen.

He literally just said that the airburst mode doesn't do significant structural damage. That abyssal most certainly scuttled. There's no way those particular ships could sink a destroyer that fast.

Dunno. I remember querying planefag about this, didn't get a response. I'm thinking somewhere in the ballpark of eighty-five percent losses, given how Naka just up and tooled off despite the crew calling for assistance... and the encroaching Abyssal forces vectoring in.

IIRC, we seemed to have completely forgot about them as we were attempting to pull back and regroup.

...Are you forgetting how she deliberately spent time tossing out life preservers and dragging the wounded to the lifeboat before the crew insisted she move on?

So does that mean we have no reliable way to capture abyssals now? Unless we can prevent them from a heroing.

Have a shipgirl board and fight her way through the crew.

>>152331
She did 'tool off', she was out of rescue equipment and still tried to physically rescue crew in the water with her hands. It was a dying crewman who told her it was ok to go and get Harder.

That is very far from 'tooling off'.

We have a cored-out ship running on life support, there's certainly the possibility that we come upon an abyssal that's too battle damaged to self destruct and can tow it in and keep it alive.

There's an account of a bomber pilot from WWII who was watching a documentary after the war about the military scrapping old bombers. They walk around the front, he sees the nose art and he screams "THAT'S MY SHIP!"

Late to the thread, but are you FUCKING KIDDING ME?
>>150934
>>Tossing the Karlshruhe
>>Without getting the Königsberg first
Either of these ships have AP that will flat out MURDER any tier-appropriate opponent that shows its broadside. My last game in the Karlsruhe before I graduated to the Königsberg, I smoked two Chunnibotes and an opposing Karlsruhe in the first five minutes of the game - I was on a pace to earn a Kraken if my client hadn't crashed. Five 150mm AP citadels into the side of a Tenryu = Chuunibote erased from play in one broadside.
Königsberg is all this with its guns in three fast-firing turrets, not eight slow-ass singles, and two triple 6km TT banks per side. Skin's thin, but the AP is Kruppstahl tier, and you have the range and speed to kite anything you can't slug it out with. Avoid Cheatlands and St.Lou's, bully anything else without mercy.

And if you can't print money with a Derzki, you are unfit to drive a destroyer, because you are MEDIOCRE.
How to Derzki:
> Spray silver paint on teeth at start of match, resolve to take at least your own tonnage to the bottom with you
> Avoid cruisers, murder battleships, assassinate carriers, use torps to knife-fight destroyers
> Hide behind cover, ambush suckers at corners
> when enemy comes within sprint-attack range of your hiding spot (~5-6km), lunge from cover, dash into torp range, dump ten fish on them every twenty seconds
> watch BBs melt and carriers burn, drink their tears and laugh at their salty chat comments

Having just finished the thread, and looked at your presentation, I have to say that biggest problem is that you don't define the difference between a destroyer and a cruiser.

I get that you're army, so you might think you can just trust the Navy on this, but trust me, that's a terrible idea.

(Remember, we closed the cruiser gap against the USSR by re-designating a bunch of our largest destroyers Cruisers. Further, the latest destroyer is ~15,000 tons, in the same ball park as the last heavy cruiser.)

Worse for you, the biggest difference between Tenryuu and a Japanese destroyer is that her guns and armor don't suck.

However, that's also the difference between a Japanese destroyer and a Fletcher.

TL;DR By WW2 Tenryuu is basically a destroyer, thus not for Lewd.

Didn't the Russian designate anything over destroyer tonnage that wasn't a submarine (after they dumped the Stalingrads) a "Cruiser" though?
