Two matches of the new Convoy game mode in the Massachusetts. Both are on the attacking side. It’s a pretty cool game mode so far! You’ve got to intercept the red team’s convoy of Liberty ships.

Good way the start my evening watch a great video. Thanks Aerroon
How did you like the pause at the start? Did it throw you off?
Yes I thought I need to complaint again to the cable people
I was wondering what was what as well. Just means I know your style well.
I thought you got sick again and ran out of voice.
Some maps are harder to defend the transports. The thing with defending is you have to aggressively attack and if you have a Cleveland and the have a CV he sits back and baby sits. Name of the game keep them from even spotting the transports.
Congress and Kii seem to be really good in this mode, you should definetly try them 😉
Congress is almost cheating. The Radar and Hydro is so damn useful.
Imagine the attacking side throwing…
oh wait, it already happened to me like 2 times already
I really like how you’re showing commander skills now
Thank you. I guess showing them at the end of the video with explanations wasn’t a good idea huh.
@Aerroon anticlimactic ending after the battle.
“If I look away and pretend nothing’s happening, everything will be okay, right?” Sounds like WG’s overall strategy for the last year or so …
lol
Totally working strategy!
this mode is great with a Tirpitz =)
Its amazing just how many can fuckup in this mode thats so simple I played 7 matches and most players stay behind the convoy allowing the ships to get destroyed while BB’s hide behind islands
no sht, i lose just because one BB decide to do crossfire like far away from the convoy to get some useless cross fire
Yes we lose
Yes he lives
the main issue with convoy is that the defenders don’t really hav ea way to just stop the attackers from sniping the convoy ships other than gluing themselves to the ships
i find in this game mode the attackers have a higher chance of winning, and the only way for defenders to win is to play hyper aggressive push and not stay near the transports
I lost 5 times on the attacking team. It looks easy but it is not, when the defending team knows what they are doing.
@ザム「Zam」 Same here. Attackers should cooperate well in first place otherwise they’ll get destroyed one by one.
Actually this gamemode may be the only use for the kansaw – the aa protects convoys and the guns are good against broadsiding convoy defenders (because they have to sail near broadside to stay with them) and attackers (who show broadside to position). 12 he shells are amazing against convoys as well. Also the torpedo belt is sufficient to human shield the convoys
How bout a game mode were the defending team are all DDs and have to defend merchant ships from enemy subs which is the attaxking team. God that will be hard af
That ooland save though!
It’s a fun game mode and easy to farm XP and credits in. It’s so easy when your on the attacking team compared to defending. I don’t think I’ve lost a single game where my team was attacking cause the Liberty ships are so fragile. Also, BBs are really powerful in this mode and the queue for them is really long. TLDR: fun but lots of room for improvement
I wish random was played more like this. Random socks now.. I’m getting tired of the game play style
ive actually thoroughly enjoyed playing in this mode. had a decent spread between defence and offense. As others have said, the only defence is good offense. on the map you were playing for example you have to make a b-line for exactly the same position you were heading and intercept the enemy ships before they can target the transports. Managed to defend successfully a couple of times. Absolutely LOVE the fact that it encourages close quarters and no long range spam. its actually really good fun. Probably needs a bit of tweaking, but overall a really good change of pace.
WG in their infinite wisdom nerfed the liberty ship’s health. It was higher before.
Lenin dominates this mode. I haven’t lost yet since it’s survivability and awesome punching power up close makes other ships fall short
This game mode is so much fun. It’s fast-paced, short duration, intense action. I don’t even care when we lose because I had fun doing it.
