Suss is suss

Online PC Games


World of Warships

Yeah, as someone else pointed out (YT streamer) last night, something odd is up with this Leyte Gulf event. Someone must have been willing to spend the money on the Admiral pack though because in my last game for the day, there was a Tennessee on our team. 








First Mission chain completed. Expect the subsequent mission chains to get increasingly difficult. It would be a WG thing, especially when they're not forthcoming about the subsequent mission chains. What are you hiding, WG?



















Five of the mission chains pertain to the "free" Tennessee, the last mission chain is specifically for those wanting the "free" Enterprise. Becoming worried now.















Completing a mission within the mission chain rewards with a Leyte crate; in the first mission chain completing the first missions rewards with two crates while it's only a single crate for the subsequent missions. Opening them however is a bust because you only get a small amount of economic bonuses. In the images above, this was the last mission reward - five credit boosters. Underwhelming for the effort.

It occurred to me while gaming the FR25 that it might be the prototype to the highly popular and highly dangerous (in skilled hands) Tier IX Italian premium destroyer Paolo Emilio. Which explains why the latter is only available through the Research Bureau. Sadly, I'm gunning for the Vamp Deuce (Vampire II) instead which is Tier X. Maybe Christmas will be generous. No hurry anyway.

==========================

A Glimmer of Light perhaps?

Returned to Space Marines 2 thinking the server maintenance was well and truly done. Not so. Glitch saw me booted from the game due to this server maintenance error. Anyway, relogged back in and everything seemed fine thereafter so picked a mission. Vox Liberatis. First attempt ended in failure as was the next attempt. Third time lucky?

































Levelling up weapons provides access to better versions. 














Omega Marines. Chosen this chapter of Unknown origins because (1) there is no Retributors which is Syama Pedersen's homebrew chapter that featured in his five-part animation masterpiece Astartes, and (2) because I like the split colours, and (3) none of the others (apart from the Salamanders) really stand out to me, and (4) I prefer to go different out of curiosity and personal like.


Already spent any Requisition points that's leftover customizing toward this goal. Paid for the left pauldron and Nuln Oil so far. 3 more items to go to complete the set and I can outfil my first customized unit.
