World of Warships - Quick Cut: Tier VI Premium British Cruiser HMS Orion '44 (Ranked Gameplay)

This is my very first game in Tier VI Premium British cruiser HMS Orion '44. Orion is clearly a Leander-class cruiser, with all of the various baggage that comes with. She gets an Engine Boost, slightly better gun reload, longer-ranged torpedoes, and the crazy British super Repair Party that doesn't show up in the tech tree until Tier VIII. This Ranked game on Islands of Ice showcases all of these tools in an effort to force a win.

In an effort to keep a better flow of content coming, I'm going to pretty up some of my more interesting Twitch games from a given week and share them on the channel. These are much faster to produce than my normal stuff, but are a little less polished.

Was there any chance for Mahan to survive? What would you have done if you'd been the Mahans captain?

Honestly, at the point we are pushing him, his death is almost guaranteed. He can delay things or possibly get lucky with torpedoes, but that's about it. He MIGHT have been able to torpedo charge me through the smoke. My AP shells are not able to get module incaps on his torpedo tubes, so it's possible he survives to wipe me out at close range. That probably would have been his best bet; try and use the smoke to lure me in close and hope my hydro is offline. But it's a slim chance.
