World of Warships - First Look: Tier VIII American Battleship USS Nebraska
149Here's our First Look at Tier VIII American hybrid battleship USS Nebraska. Nebraska introduces a concept that's previously been confined to a handful of premiums into the regular tech trees: hybrid ships. I'm not 100% certain the game is ready for - or truly needs - this idea, but here we are. Nebraska is largely based on the hull and armament of USS North Carolina, married to a squadron of dive bombers similar to those found aboard USS Lexington. Join me for a deep dive and we'll learn more.
