The München is based on a real design, the M-class cruisers, that had the keels of the first two ships in class laid down. They were designed as "scout" cruisers for raiding forces and never meant to contend against anything larger than a merchant cruiser, with two inches of belt armor (for reference: about the same as Khabarovsk).
i love my Krasny Krym. the secret of making the Krasny Krym work is the combination of Priority Target, AFT, BFT, Demolition Expert and Concealmeant Expert + the 2 fire flags. why? because you become a mini-Zao with almost 17km range. as a cruiser...on tier 5. believe me, its hilarious
Just picked mine up yesterday. Feels like a German Atlanta. The rainbows you can get from the high turret arch allows you to use islands as armor. With a good rudder shift and speed-wiggling is rather easy. While it does start fires as well as my Nueve de Julio-having torps can be a nice present to give to those who do not respect your social distanced aft. The Kriegsmarine recommends staying 6km away to avoid contracting 533mm Vierling Torpedoes.
So I got her, took a chance. Like Soup said first few games was rough. But man quickly becoming one of my favorites. Kite, kite, kite, great firing arcs for shooting over island, decent range, build it for fires. But now avg dmg is 75K , had multiple games over 100 now, and one at 140K. About at 30-50 games in. She is a great combo of speed and rapid “fire”ing, Well worth it, fun to play.
The famed Krispy Kreme? Oh yeah, I have her. Took me a long time to actually survive longer than 3 minutes. My friends laughed at me the first time I took her out with them. How do I play her? Max speed all the time, constant unpredictable zig zaging, sling only HE. If you do get really close by chance then use those torps. It a nut shell she's a sniper.
Hey Zoup! I am a recent subscriber... but just wanted to take moment to say that I really like your style... meaning your presentation style. I enjoy your videos and you commentaries. I especially appreciate that you find the time to push videos despite career and family... especially with the new babies! And speaking of career... thank you for serving us and our country! Be well!
While I am not a good player, I do enjoy playing the Krasny Krym and have a coin flip win rate. I play it much like you describe playing the Munchen with the entertainment of always having guns pointed in every direction no matter your zig or zag to dodge. Dodge you must as it is fragile. Torps are also last resort in emergency. My bet game is 64k damage with 3 kills. Average is 25 K which is the HP of the ship. Clearly Black Templar is much better than I am. Oh, and it's AA is not bad for the tier.
I realised pretty quickly that I had to think of Munchen as a T7 Nurnberg in terms of play style. Her superb speed and really good manoeuvrability mean she is great at dodging shells, especially long range salvos, which is important because the trick to me lasting through the round is to not get hit. Fun little ship and a nice fit between Nurnberg and Mainz (Which I have and do play both fairly regularly).
The Nurnberg is one of my favorite ships in the game (definitely my favorite cruiser, at least) but I haven't really played the game since the carrier rework two years ago. This ship is certainly an incentive to come back!
As always , after seen your videos, the result is the same: I buy it :) , and by the way, congratulations for the History contest you own recently. I wrote one history too, but after reading yours, I feel better nobody see mine .... (my english is a bare version of if)
you haven't lived until you get a double tier 8 game in a japanese torp boat 6:25 Myogi this thing couldn't hit the broadside of a barn from the inside (everyone has one or two ships they hate)
Krasny Krym winrate 70% max dmg 142.785 avg 44.338,16 vzhabin.ru/US_WoWsStatInfo/?realm_search=eu&nickname=IusSanguine i like here she can brawl very nice and with the icebreaker often bouncing enemy BB guns on front. first you shoot on side very angeld to the enemy than switch and back to ather side all ways direkt to enemy BB when close and enemy already shoot go full broadside and torp them (normaly you already get burn on enemy how repear it so leak he cant can stop is neerly garantied). vs ather criusers try to cita with AP hunting DDs also not a problem all in all a good alrounder how can often surprice enemy BBs and do extrem high damage

Great review NoZoup, I'm interested in getting Munich and now have a better idea of what to expect.
I picked her up on day 1, and HE spamming is the way to go. Fun, since it's a different playstyle for German cruisers :)

Be well!
So it’s basically a faster reloading Yorck
it is brutal in T9. Anything can citadel it. Maybe works when you are top tier but you have to manoeuvre constantly.
congrats on the short story
Hindenburg is my best ship so I will be picking this up, thanks Zoup!

I don't believe your going to have 17 klm range in a Nurnburg like is offered with the Munchen sounds more like a Mainz as I said above
@@vernonjackson3435 Nurnberg main battery range is 16.5 km..
I have a blast in this ship. She struggles A LOT in T9 matches but she is still very fun.
The Nurnberg is one of my favorite ships in the game (definitely my favorite cruiser, at least) but I haven't really played the game since the carrier rework two years ago. This ship is certainly an incentive to come back!
I like you just the way you are you make each and every day a special day by just you being you and the best person you can be is your honest self!
Still trying to decide if I should buy it or now.
Sounds like a repackaged Nuremberg

wow I see I'm on youtube, sweet thanks zoup
Or, save your money and get any french cruiser? Or any soviet T7 and below? Or Myoko?
The only thing that sucks about Myoko is that it's guns and it's rudder are pretty slow, but other than that I'd say she's a more solid pick
What other boats are like this one?
I like/enjoy the Krusty Kreme i like 15 of 130mm all them guns that thing eats up low tier ships if you play it rite
you haven't lived until you get a double tier 8 game in a japanese torp boat 6:25 Myogi this thing couldn't hit the broadside of a barn from the inside (everyone has one or two ships they hate)
Sounds like a tier 7 Mainz which is another ship you just want to kite in
Kinda like a German Atlanta?
I wonder why Graf Spee has 8km torps
There's actually a story behind that.... but I don't know it. :-)
mewn-shun - there ya go.
no
You sure it isn't French?
Hahahaha if you hide the whole match…… get dev struck every time if a BB sees you😊
This ship plays like a Pensacola

i like here she can brawl very nice and with the icebreaker often bouncing enemy BB guns on front. first you shoot on side very angeld to the enemy than switch and back to ather side all ways direkt to enemy BB when close and enemy already shoot go full broadside and torp them (normaly you already get burn on enemy how repear it so leak he cant can stop is neerly garantied). vs ather criusers try to cita with AP hunting DDs also not a problem all in all a good alrounder how can often surprice enemy BBs and do extrem high damage
💩 at tier 7.
Second :)) nice video Zoup...
LOL Zoup . You ve lost your salty and i am starting to suspect WG won . Cmon Wargamin russians get Smolensk , and germans get a T7 ? Really now ?
Well, come on, now.... Germans also recently got the Mainz, the Aegir, and Odin.... Not to mention all the CVs.... but who likes CVs anyway!? :-)
1st
Just dropping by to leave my every episode dislike. Carry on.
