{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}  
Van Kinsbergen is the fastest of all Tier 1 ships, even outrunning the fast patrol cutter Orlan. Her maneuverability is on par with or better than the other ships she will face at her tier. Use that speed to your advantage. Van Kinsbergen is a good ship to train a new player how to kite effectively. put some distance between you & pursuing vessels, then start zigzagging. Zig to bring your foward guns to bear when they reload, zag to evade return fire.  
Using the ship as a brawler can work, but her reload & traverse leave something to be desired in this respect. Resort to kiting in Tier 2 & 3 games.

For more aggressive play, take Grease the Gears, Demolition Expert, and Adrenaline Rush(a must-have). Several different skills may work for Level 4, but use of Inertia Fuse may help you get citadels & magazine detonations.
