[2022] Read First: Welcome to the New Player Captain's Log!

Hello everyone, and welcome to the New Player Captain's Log!

...

Wait, what is the New Player Captain's Log?

For those of you who don’t know me, my name’s Konception and I am the new NA Community Manager alongside Boggzy and Ahskance. While I have several years of gaming industry experience, I came into this position completely new to the game, which has put me in a rather unique position in comparison to my CM colleagues.

As I am new to both WG and WoWS, I thought it could be a good idea to share some of my experiences, thoughts and perspectives as a new player to the game. Every week on Tuesdays (barring holidays or other conflicts/unforeseen events), I will post my perspective on what I encountered in the previous week. This will include the ships I am playing, what I have noticed, what I need to work on, and any questions or comments I might have come up with. Anyone will be able to respond to these threads, which means that new players and existing players alike can reply with their thoughts, advice, comments or questions. My hope for this project is that new players (including myself) can learn/discuss some new techniques and strategies from more experienced players who might reply. I will be creating a new thread weekly, so feel free to check back regularly if this is something that interests you! In my experience, the new player perspective is a very valuable one, and I am hoping that my ongoing learning process can be an asset to the community.
That's about it! Thanks for reading, and I wish you all fair winds and following seas.
