So now if we get custom animations on an enemy ship we killed, can we get one that makes a 'neigh!' instead of a boom when kill with this ship??? Come on WG. Make it happen!
Looks interesting. I did the grind for Wisconsin, Oquendo, and it looks like I'll be able to finish out Niord. If the grind on this one is any worse than Niord, I'll probably be skipping it especially if Asymmetric battles won't be around.
I am looking forward to trying her out. Especially since I watched the movie The King's Choice that shows how she got hit and severely damaged by ww1 era (coastal) defence guns and torpedo's from the early 1900's, during the invasion of Norway, never firing here main guns before she sunk in the hours following.
I honestly thought we would see her as a T7 reward or as ways to diss the fictional Yorck. But I’m mildly interested, if only, cuz I will then have all 5 Hippers in my port
Thanks for the overview of the Blucher! I am hoping that they do not pull a Niord level 99k baseXP mission. If so, it will likely be another skip. I agree that this is the most appealing dockyard since the Wisconsin. I appreciate your time making the video for us!
This is my own opinion so there is no need to argue: so...30mm on the angled area of the citadel? against T9/10/11?? is this a joke WG... Mainz and Eugen have 40mm and are pretty good for their tier but hipper with 30mm is painful bc u cant ricochet/avoid much BBs shells bc of the overmatch 30mm and on T9 there is even MORE overmatch and they put 30mm on the angled area of the citadel instead of 40mm? Blücher will be a good ship but this small detail on her citadel will make alot diff in combat against high caliber ships. so in short its not even going to be like an eugen, this is literally a hipper up tier with better AP and dispersion, i hope there will be more changes bc as it looks rn its not even worth it to get a T9 hipper that has no chance to survive against high tier BBs much less farm them or deal dmg to them... this is MY OPINION but for me Blücher is not worth if u want just for dmg, there is better ship that do this job and have better survivability and other stuff, i was hyped for nothing, will it still get her? yes bc i want all hipper-class ships, will i play her often? prolly not bc i have better ships to play at the same tier. Blücher in short will literally be an AP azuma, long range between 18-20km shooting AP and expecting to hit smth but at mid/close range she will have difficulty to survive unless the enemies are blind or ignoring you, we are talking about a Hipper armor matching with T9/10 and superships that can delete a normal T9/10 ship, so for a T8 in disguised as T9, she has no chance in those matchmakings. but if she goes against T8 or bellow, she is gonna dominate. This was my opinion and i had to let this out bc i was rlly happy for Blücher to come but they fked up her survivability that i was expecting to be (eugen hull/citadel for example), i hope i can have fun with this ship but with the current matchmaking, cvs, subs i doubt a T8 ships with only gun/dmg improvements will survive against T10 and superships, i hope my opinion was helpful. ty for reading and sry for the big text, i had to express my disapointment
Same stats like Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen. Take note, she's a Tier IX ship but honestly will I personally loved it and will tribute this ship for 27th Birthday during one of the future updates.
For those that don't know, there is a key difference between Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen in terms of survivability. Hipper gets 30mm of armour on the citadel slope while Eugen gets 40mm. That little bit of extra thickness helps make Eugen slightly tankier. And it looks like Blucher gets the Hipper citadel, not the Eugen citadel.
In reality PE is so much more survivable than Hipper and Mainz. Don't forget that PE has HEALS. PE's dmg output seems to be less on paper compared to sister ships, but its much better survivable makes her last long in a battle, resulting in more XPs in reality.
Im honestly hyped for her! She looks amazing! I am however kinda worried about the classic tier 9 matchmaker for her... In ranked tho i think shes gonna be a beast.
looking intressting like said if you are collector you gonna grind it annyway....... and i gonna grind it and if not last phases i buy them out so for small 40eu i can maybe have here
Blucher problem to what i see is her citadel armor, using hipper rather than eugen. she will easily be citadeleted. Also, acceleration of german cruiser sucks and gitgud then
im staying skeptical until we get the data mined stats because rn that just looks almost identical to roon so im wondering what they even changed to make its guns "special" the hull is also looking worse the t8 hippers. Hipper and tallin get a full ice breaker but the t9 dosnt and that cit also looks like 30mm to me so the t9 has the worst hull out of any hipper?
99k base xp mission for Niord is such bullshit. Still working on it and it’s so dumb. Hope the missions aren’t the same for this ship. Also can’t stand these double gun turret ships. Make it triple or quadruple turrets.
Historically Accurate Butcher, zero fire resistance, zero torpedo protection.
😁😁
Yeah, not really anything that would cause me to run out and get this ship. Meh.
Let the Young Frankenstein horse whinny references begin! Looking forward to getting this one.
neigh!!!!
🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴!
I only came here for the Young Frankenstein comments.

@@TheJoe7Six yeah why did they make niord so difficult? They want us to play longer grinding I suppose. I'm not falling for it. Skipped Niord as well.

the 99k base xp realy wasnt that hard especialy with asymms still around. the non bb dmg missions sucked more imo
@@Mobo___ it is grindy for people who aren't interested in doing 5-10 games/day without skipping a day
@@Mobo___ meh, heavy cruisers like napoli, marseille or castilla really did the job for me on asymms so it wasnt THAT bad
@@DiselHunt yea exept if you dont have cruisers on t10 -_- did it on brest but still t9 and below cruisers in asymms are pain
Peanuts saying it wasn't much or they did it in assym have no life. Assym is crap XP so we know they played for hours and hours.

ty for reading and sry for the big text, i had to express my disapointment
Agreed. 30mm on the Armored Deck Slope is not enough, that alone makes the cruiser unappealing.
De 7 P was also a real steel ship from the dockyard
Does it take extra fire damage from Forts?
Same stats like Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen. Take note, she's a Tier IX ship but honestly will I personally loved it and will tribute this ship for 27th Birthday during one of the future updates.
Good AP main gun.
"Enemy Bow in"
I guess I'll just die.
Her career was not relatively short, it was very short. She was sunk while her crew was still super green, almost maiden voyage.
Agree with the glass cannon analogy. Agir has 62k and even that is squishy
For those that don't know, there is a key difference between Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen in terms of survivability. Hipper gets 30mm of armour on the citadel slope while Eugen gets 40mm.

Anyone know whats the Next RB ship ?
Can't wait to get it
Agir is pretty accurate as well.
Blücher is an Admiral Hipper class CA
Hard pass for me!
Thanks for the video Bou!
Im honestly hyped for her! She looks amazing! I am however kinda worried about the classic tier 9 matchmaker for her... In ranked tho i think shes gonna be a beast.
Why are the camos for all these newer ships so boring?
Because WarGambling lost Art Department in their divorce with Lesta.
looking intressting like said if you are collector you gonna grind it annyway....... and i gonna grind it and if not last phases i buy them out so for small 40eu i can maybe have here
can i swap the current garbage for this
Man i really hope they change that Turtelback from 30 to 40 like Eugen gets at least it dosent get overmatch cits then
I'm skeptical since Niord was a bit of a letdown. No more starter packs for me, despite the higher steel rewards.
This HP pool and armour will be painful in times of 457mm BBs everywhere not even speaking about t11s.. glass cannon u guess?
Exactly, this is gonna be a horrible. You can't angle. This will be a hard pass for me.
Does Blucher look thicker? Am I crazy?
Crazy? NO. Sexual projection.. HELL YA!!!
yes😂
Shocked you didn’t mention the reload 8.8 seconds is very fast for 203’s
Yeah double the reload of USA heavy cruisers. Really fast lol 😂
Blucher problem to what i see is her citadel armor, using hipper rather than eugen. she will easily be citadeleted. Also, acceleration of german cruiser sucks and gitgud then
Its so beautiful
Sounds incredibly average. Maybe even below average with that armour and speed, or lack of.
This ship will melt from he😮
Make sure it has weak torpedo defense..... just saying....
Also weak AA if compared to both Hipper and Prinz Eugen. Due to the fact that Blucher sunk in 1940 or 1941
Only when being torpedoed by pan-european DDs
just like Bismarck and her steering 😂
insta buy for me because of gameplay and historical relevancy
now i understand why wg loves whales
🤣, historical relevancy? Just say you want this ship bc you buy every ship WG releases.
im staying skeptical until we get the data mined stats because rn that just looks almost identical to roon so im wondering what they even changed to make its guns "special"
the hull is also looking worse the t8 hippers. Hipper and tallin get a full ice breaker but the t9 dosnt and that cit also looks like 30mm to me so the t9 has the worst hull out of any hipper?
I don't get it why you think this will be a good ship.
Because Gun Power is the most Deciding Factor for a Cruiser.
Blücher Guns are extremely Powerful.
So Blücher will be very Strong.
another mid dockyard
99k base xp mission for Niord is such bullshit. Still working on it and it’s so dumb. Hope the missions aren’t the same for this ship.
Also can’t stand these double gun turret ships. Make it triple or quadruple turrets.
This is just a Hipper...what a rip off
Must.....Have......Blucher!!!!! And should we not use the Norwegian port in case the ship gets set on fire, torped and capsizes on us?
