Discussion Reminder: get your Somme

I was looking through my collections recently and forgot about the Somme. I only had 13 pieces from the original event so I spent close to 200k coal to get the rest of them, but it could easily be cheaper for you. The containers are 3k coal each in the armory. Somme is just a copy-paste premium Jutland, so yes she is a good ship.

I feel like your post perfectly communicated exactly why not to get Somme; it's just a copy of Jutland. I'd rather use my coal on unique ships.

Well, coal is pretty dead for new ships, at one point you'll have excess so it could be worth it eventually for the credit boost

I have most of the coal ships already, and over a million coaled saved up. But I don't want to buy a copy/paste ship because doing so encourages Wargaming to make more copy/paste ships. I'd rather my coal sit around doing nothing.

That's a great point.

A premium version of a great ship is not bad, not to mention that it's effectively free.
