The shell velocity and angle make it difficult to hunt DDs. Petro has a longer range on his radar and flatter shots. Des moines range is low and at high range you won't hit much. The great stuff is the good concealment for a CA, the good legendary mod and your ability to punish broadside of other cruiser that you can ambush occasionally.

Des Moines is arguably the best tier 10 cruiser and even the best tier 10 in the game. Worcester is good but that's it. The CA line also takes you through the Baltimore, one of the best T8s due to it's stealth radar and good DPM for a CA. There's a few meh ships on the way, but that's low tier cruisers for you.

In summary, Des Moines requires, extreme trigger discipline, extreme patience and waiting for the battle to develop, picking the right fights when it is appropriate, and extensive knowledge on the maps, ships you are fighting against, and the player's tendencies that play them.

As a cruiser, it's your job to ferret out what the enemy is up to. Des Moines has access to the "Hydroacoustic Search," "Catapult Fighter," "Spotting Aircraft," and "Surveillance Radar" consumables. All of which, when used properly, decrease the likelihood of being surprised by the enemy.

Des Moines gets overmatched in front and bow by shells bigger than 16 inches and overmatched anywhere by 18 inchers. Bowtanking a Montana: Fine. Bowtanking a Yamato, GK, Preussen, Ohio, St Vincent, Thunderer etc etc -> You're going to be in a world of hurt.

Play one battle in World of Warships T2 Diana Lima, a Port slot, and a commander with 9 skill points ... (Worcester) would be easier for a new player, but the Heavy Cruiser line (Des Moines) is the better/stronger line at Tiers 9 & 10. pps: By all means focus on one line, but don't completely ignore other lines/ship types. ...

Everyone seems to think the Moskva has Russian sluggishness, but its rudder shift is the only mediocre part about it; it has the second best turn radius of the t10 cruisers. Zao a

While looking through all the armor profiles, I found this interesting fact: Des Moines is the only tier 10 (possibly true for all tiers) cruiser with 27mm of bow armor, all other 3 having 25mm. (Hindenburg does have patches of 40mm plates, but they are too small to make a noticeable impact.) While 2mm seems to be a very small difference, let's

A very comfortable ship to play and man, if you catch a cruiser broadside, they can be deleted (RIP to the Des Moines at 19km that I blapped from full health). If you know where to shoot on BB's - can do consistently solid damage and put up good numbers. That being said, barring big surprise additions to the Armory, R.Lauria will be my next pick

Even its confirmed that T7~T9 USN cruisers has been planed to give a small buff. The general idea is 1.As for Des Moines, we see only small drag in damage comparing to other T10 cruisers as a weakness. So we will probably slightly buff her output, too. Armor and ballistics are two of the most rea
