I hate how Naval Legacy ships have been locked behind extreme Gacha Mechanics
Yamato Kai, Roma Aeterna and now Eiserner Kanzler have all been locked either behind the top end (or incredibly low chance) of Whishing Wharf events (Yamato and Eiserner), or stupid low chances behind sequential loot boxes (Roma).
As someone who is a pretty big history fan, the fact that these ships exist alone, is quite frankly annoying, because really they could have simply been really cool skins. But alas, even as they have been added as unique individual ships, the sheer expense needed to get all of these ships is absurd.
I really wish WG had instead made these special ships more accessible through additional campaigns/personal missions (similar to Halsey/Yamamato etc), where you would have the opportunity to slowly grind these ships out over a period of months/a year. Something that doesn't expire like dockyard ships do, but would take a significant amount of time/skill to grind each of these ships. If you wanted to get them sooner, then you could spend your dubs ig or something like that if WG really wants to encourage you to spend your money.
I dunno, just kinda rambling a bit, because I would love to have the full collection of these, quite frankly, amazing visual versions of these ships especially with how closely Wargaming models them to their real life counterparts, but if you already missed out on them or don't whale now, sucks to suck I guess.
curious to hear people's thoughts
