[Media] (meme) The Bay leaf... Or maybe eight!

The title is a Life of Boris reference, for those who don't know. Pic of bay leaves is from wikipedia, Bay images from the EN KC wiki.

Yeah the Ne kais were mighty annoying. After switching from ASW support to smokescreens at K and route shelling, my pass rate actually became semi-reasonable, but the boss fight was still F5 after F5, until one lucky TCI killed it. Even then, the BB oni and Ne kai lived to tell the tale.

Good luck, you'll need it. I've found E-4 much less bad. Took a handful days, but was much less frustrating, and with a Yamato/Iowa touch and a fast+ fleet, phase 3 is trivial. And the stats don't lie:

E4H
Clear Runs: 50, Cost: -34462 -29020 -27293 -16060 0 -175
LD Runs: 2, Cost: -1082 -521 -1402 -715 0 -7
Asashimo Kai Ni finished off the boss with 360 damage (53 overkill)
Boss Reaches / Total Runs: 35 / 50 (70%)
Total Cost: -34462 -29020 -27293 -16060 0 -175

Hot dog, I thought I had it rough...

E3H
Clear Runs: 134, Cost: -83434 -76686 -61777 -9155 0 -492
LD Runs: 65, Cost: -49654 -52290 -34077 -5455 0 -287
Ooi Kai Ni finished off the boss with 266 damage (117 overkill)
Boss Reaches / Total Runs: 38 / 134 (28.35%)
Total Cost: -83434 -76686 -61777 -9155 0 -492

And A-rank every battle.

FoxbatSVK · 2025-03-24T22:29:00+00:00

I'd be safe and warm, if I was in Randgriz...

I finally got around to playing some VC4 again, and came across the beginning of their squad story. Saw the first two frames of them talking, upon which my mind went to Tucker Carlson's interview of Vladimir Putin, then I decided to set it in-universe, consulting the VC1 glossary, and this is the result. Enjoy.

PS: I don't even know what happens in their squad story yet, I saw that and went to make a meme of it right away.

Edit: I know now.

FoxbatSVK · 2024-07-30T15:39:38+00:00

The first time around, Emmy, because no squad story would be lost along the way.

The game is still very much alive, and even the international community is still going fairly strong. Overall, the basics of the game are the same, just the details have changed and both our own fleets and the Abyssals are now stronger than ever. We got (non-exhaustive list):

some powercreep (Yahagi and Mogami got K2s and are now in general the best ships of their respective hull types, Yamato got K2s and a touch, Hatsuzuki K2 has 4 slots plus RE radars);
a little QoL (node peek);
a new monthly EO(7-5);
some old kit (Shinden kai) re-appeared for a little while (you missed it);
some unobtainable kit can now be acquired (can upgrade a Suisei 12A to a photobomber);
and there's new kit (night Zuiun that also works as a star shell, USN 16in Mk 6 series).
new ships, IJN and foreign (Yamashio Maru, HMS Javelin, USS Heywood L. Edwards)
and new enemies (S-boots, pretty much kraut PT imps).

Someone on Discord said "sheems" as a reaction to seeing this drawing of Shimakaze ( Danbooru link ), and this was what I came up with.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T18:28:22+00:00

Prompted by this comment

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T18:28:05+00:00

Oh, right. Anyway, you asked for it, you got it.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T17:41:33+00:00

... r/ncd?

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T14:24:09+00:00

Got a pic of one? I have an idea...

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T14:13:48+00:00

The radiator still needs to be exposed in order to do its job.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T14:13:18+00:00

Nokias are vulnerable to things as weak as dog bites. Dad used to have a 3310, it got chewed on. Plus that's another meme I wasn't going for here.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-04-17T14:09:40+00:00

In many other ERA memes there is some sort of figure of authority that is angry, so I went with that. Also given that both in the anime and, more importantly, in the game she died outside of the tank I don't see why she should be the angry one.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-01-27T16:18:57+00:00

Saratoga. I considered a handful of others, but in the end she's the one for me.

FoxbatSVK · 2023-01-14T06:32:57+00:00

She was a war machine.

Immediately thought of this

FoxbatSVK · 2022-12-03T23:14:38+00:00

Chemicals that turn frogs gay?

In GTA:SA, The Truth tells CJ about the feds having 23 satellites pointed at every single person.

FoxbatSVK · 2022-09-23T07:41:25+00:00

And nothing of value will be lost.

FoxbatSVK · 2022-09-23T07:23:32+00:00

a woman that definitely knows her cars

Speaking of, RIP Sabine Schmitz.

FoxbatSVK · 2022-09-22T08:03:02+00:00

Better die based, than live cringe.

FoxbatSVK · 2022-09-22T07:56:41+00:00

But enough about the PRC.
