World of Warships - Learn to Play: Tier VII German Cruiser Yorck
0Back in early December, I joined NA Community Managers Boggzy and Ahskance for a bit of time on the official World of Warships stream to talk through the basics of playing some of the German cruiser line. The result turned out pretty well, but we didn't cover the odd-numbered ships at the top of the line. As such, I've created this video for Tier VII's Yorck from scratch.

21:43 - Sample Gameplay
Yorck is the first heavy cruiser in the German line, which necessitates a radical shift in how captains approach a game compared to all of the ships they've played in the line up to this point. She is far more resilient to incoming fire than Nürnberg, but her main battery reloads twice as slowly. Accordingly, she has to be a lot more cautious in the early parts of a game where the positions of the enemy battleships aren't fully known. In this video I'll talk about how I build my Yorck, why I fit her out that way, how I recommend playing her, and follow all of that up with a game demonstrating the ship in action.
Enjoy!
