Please write a little about every BB Line in the game....

[_HardHitter_]

Return after 4 years, there are many Nations added to the game, before there was only Japan, USA and Germany.

Please tell about every BB Line's PROS like Gun Accuracy, Penetration, Armor and Mobility and CONS

HAAHAHA

 

Get the Keksarge.... Behold the ultimate 

Abomination!!!

 

 

Everything is inferior!

Tech tree ship are worthless, they sink your credits, and.... Yeah...

 

We have BB with smoke, Italian BBs

Russian BB have limited DCP

Constellation and Borodino have radar.... Thought despite having torpedo and good secondary, constellation is fragile unlike tirpitz.

 

And the bad news, DD like Kleber and Elbinh will Spam you from 16km... Euro DD have insane 90 Knot torpedo with long reaach of 15.

Look no more, get Kearsarge

Okay. What is another BB line that is Fast and have Accurate Guns & Good Penetration like Japanese ones?

US Fast BB line.

 

However,

You will need to play the slow, 21 knot, US dreadnoughts from T3 to T7, before you can reach the fast BB line (T8 to T10).

 

For T3 to T5, you may need to play Random Battles to be able to go up quickly.

For T6 and T7, you can play Scenarios / Operations. It will be less stressful than Random Battles, but it the down side is game fatigue.
A scenario lasts about 15 to 19 minutes.
Also, it will depending if the team is familiar with the scenarios / operations or not.

You will get 23 knot traditional USN BB in T8-T10

they have decent AA and DFAA, and high torp damage reduction (yamato still the best though)

4X4 16in, 406mm for T8-T9 and 4X4 18in, 457mm for vermont

and a verrrrrrrrry long loading time with a similar base range to the fast BB line

citadel is above the waterline for vermont while kansas and minnestoa are having citadel at waterline.

Okay. Can these new high tier French/Italian BBs with 380mm guns penetrate citadels of other BBs in the game?

French have insanely high pen value, Republique have higher AP Pen than any other BB at 15km below except 510mm shikisima....

Republique HE is also insane fire starter at 49% chance... just below Thunderer and Conkek..... combined with anti citadel protection... this bastard can be good at duel cqc.

 

the only problem of republique is.... due to 32mm armor, every low caliber gun spam is a lot hurt....

so insanely fragile againts smaller ship

go here kamerad! if you want to look the value of AP penetration of each ship.

[Metal_illness]

Japan- good

US- bad unless you spend a fortune for steel/ RB ships, then -good

Germany - poor ze germans

Italy-  don't even bother

France- good, maybe

Britain- good

Russia- great, working as intended
