Regardless would be an uphill battle, less armour, less penetration, less damage per shell, fewer guns. Layout means we won’t get 1-tapped but that’s where I envisage the positives end.
And vanguard will be the highest BR
na they wont even move the br’s up cruisers vs yamatto
Layout would be that they can get onet-apped when penned, and well, If with supecharge it would be possible to penetrate Yamato’s armor inside 10 km
For some reason I have doubts about this)
With WT penetration formula, supercharged 15" APC can penetrate 410mm RCA@20deg up to roughly 10km. This already takes angle of fall into account.
One of the main disadvantages of Yamato’s armour scheme in this game is that she cannot angle like most of other ships to increase armour effectiveness in close quarters melee, due to the presence of diagonal bulkheads. So she has to stay distant from any potentially dangerous opponent with full broadside, which somewhat limits her tactical versatility. I would say the playing style of Yamato will be very similar to US standard battleships atm, that is to stay as far from your enemy as possible and being a sniper ship. She’s going to be very strong in a fundamentalistic long range gunnery engagement but she’ll be struggling in short range maps and cap-points where you have to rush forward.

Yes, good, but that’s only if the ship is purely sideways. Basically, the ship will obviously be going at a certain angle to the enemy. It could be some newbie who will be purely exposing his side to the enemy.
But the developers don’t provide a supercharge for the 380mm Vanguard
As I have already mentioned above, in Yamato’s case, going at a certain angle will actually decrease Yamato’s effectiveness or armour due to her specific citadel shape.
For example, when angled 40deg, Yamato’s citadel can be penetrated by supercharged 15" at roughly 12000m, as opposed to 10000m when showing perfect broadside.
Stay tuned to the dev server :)
This week maybe?👀
Hopefully we get a trailer tonight and dev stream tomorrow.
I think it could be next week tho
Question is, what ship are you gonna play first?
i would like him to play vanguard but i think it will be yamato
Since all 3d models are leaked I would expect it this week
Starting with Y

I needto do Rodney first before Vanguard
Oh yeah 😂
this has to be the highest density of capital ships in one update
Yeah, now we cope about an update at the end of the year adding cold war ships
