This ship, while having a large history in both World of Warships and naval history in general, inflicts pain on both its captain and its adversaries. Don't get me wrong, it's still a good ship, but I still can't get over that idiotic armor scheme...

A National Audit Office (NAO) report on ‘The Equipment Plan 2023 - 2033’ in the UK makes for grim reading, revealing a massive so-called ‘black hole’ in the Defence budget, which means there is apparently no money for key projects, including future warships.

This episode begins with a discussion by host Iain Ballantyne and guests Dr Gary Blackburn and Dr James Bosbotinis about the bid by Venezuela to annex a major part of neighboring Guyana.

This ship, on paper, is pretty mediocre. And, for the most part, it is very much mediocre. But, in the hands of a skilled player and/or in the right situation, this ship can be deadly.

Robert Oppenheimer, the so-called ‘father of the atom bomb.’ It includes a discussion on the historical context of The Bomb’s use to end WW2, especially in light of the US Navy already bringing Japan to th…

This ship is challenging to play, not because it is a bad ship at all (it's actually pretty good), but because it requires common sense and a large amount of situational awareness to play...something that a lot of WOWS players seem to lack...

In part one of this discussion between Dr. Gary Blackburn and host Iain Ballantyne, they investigate the recently published UK Defence Command Paper (DCP).

In the second and final installment of our discussion with British submarine captain Commander Rob Forsyth, we hear how a hard-charging Soviet spy vessel forced him to order HMS Repulse to ‘crash dive’.

They consider the …

It is a breath of fresh air to have a more basic, down-to-earth battleship that still exists in the game with a playstyle that is not defined by gimmick consumables, but by a genuinely balanced ship that offers exciting gameplay. Even more uncommon is the coupling of a balanced ship and a historic ship, which is exactly what Nagato is. Listen in to…

The name of the game with the Amagi is situational awareness; you have to have situational awareness to be good with the Amagi, which is why the Amagi is a great ship to choose when one wishes to develop into a mature World of Warships player. The Amagi forces gameplay that is well conceived with great thought to ensure oneself always has the advan…

The Fusō is one of those ships that looks at power creep and laughs hardily. This ship was introduced into the game on launch and is still going strong.

For possibly the most generic ship in World of Warships, made entirely of off-the-shelf parts, the Anshan does surprisingly well. This ship takes no risks and does not rely on gimmicks, making it more friendly to play for the average or beginning player to use. The Anshan is defined by its low-skill floor, low-skill ceiling classic destroyer gamepl…

In this episode host Iain Ballantyne talks to Andy Benford, a Cold War undersea warrior who saw service in diesel ‘dirty boats’ of the British and Australian navies and aboard nuclear submarines, not only in hunter-killers but also the UK’s Polaris deterrent force. Aside from Andy’s brush with death during a notorious 1972 hovercraft accident in th…

The Kongō is something of a right of passage, a ship that everyone ought to play at some point in their time playing World of Warships. The ship has an interesting playstyle that teaches players the concepts in World of Warships that they will need to master in order to survive at higher tiers, making it excellent for newcomers. Very forgiving, but…

A rarity in World of Warships: a balanced ship that doesn't suck! Florida is a ship that was unexpectedly added to my collection; I have come to cherish the Florida, for it is one of the most reliable ships in my possession. Strong, but not overpowered, requires thinking, but isn't stressful to play, and it produces results. Bottom line is, respect…

What else is there to say about this ship? It is the most played warship in World of Warships; the Bismarck has a legendary status that has outlasted its life in the real world and will likely outlast its life in World of Warships.

This cruiser is the epitome of a British Warship in World of Warships. You either do great damage in this ship and love it, or get nuked every time you press the "Battle" button and hate it. The Albemarle simply is not a fan of living a balanced life (or living at all, some would argue). Still perplexed with this ship? Listen in to learn more! Emai…
