Markus Becker 0 Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Actually, the major weakness the RN had throughout most of the war was the lack of a fully tachymetric AA director. The British HACS really couldnt compare to the US Mk 37 in that regard.Didn't they fix that rather quickly with a modified HACS? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Tucan 0 Posted November 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Have to say i do like the 1920`sesque tripod and modifications added to the Normandie, Lyon look perhaps abit "topheavy" with the updated bridge but it might just be the angle of the picture...but damn, check the secondaries!! All the older French battleships looked terribly top heavy from the get go, esp. the tumblehomes... And even Dunkerques and Richelieus had a pretty big superstructure. Good thing we do not include metacentric height in game Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It might just be the rather stubby nature of the bow that gives this impression. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DB 0 Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 it amuses me somewhat when people complain about how deeply submerged some BB citadels are, without understanding that the game is glossing over a massive weight problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marek Tucan 0 Posted January 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 They already were in in the summer. Just expanding the collection. Harekaze is actually quite fun boat for Ranked, Kagero, only better at gunfights (with the Akizuki guns or with the 5"/54). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RETAC21 0 Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 How do you get them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Tucan 0 Posted January 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Buy - the HSF ships are purchase only, though there are also HSF skins for Yamato and Musashi. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DB 0 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) Smolensk and Colbert are live. Imagine a Minotaur on speed with HE. Insane and even more fun to play against than than the stupidly overpowered "DDs" Harugumo and Kitekaze. The progressive AA reinforcement is better.

Argus 0 Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Thunderer has taken some getting used to, but played well OMF'nG that thing can hit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DB 0 Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 A problem with Thunderer is that it needs a different captain than all of the other UK BBs, so it's not quite ideal as a Premium captain trainer. (I feel it needs Expert Loader, which is worthless for all the others, which should just have the AP removed for all the use it is.) But yes, if you get it right, things you hit stay hit.

Argus 0 Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Well there's your problem then, I've ground to Conc with frequent and heavy application of AP. Its might not be the best AP, but it works well enough within its limits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DB 0 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 I find that Conq AP causes me to rage quit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Argus 0 Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 Well I play with a standing ping of over 100, so if I were prone to rage quitting... lets just say I'm accustomed to lower returns than many people seem to expect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
