The 16” North Carolinas barely matched interwar ships?
The Gripen was the most unbalanced top tier plane at its introduction we’ve seen in a very long time. It’s pretty hard to think of anything that was a worse offender, actually. Calling the Typhoon “almost unplayable” is laughable too.

Lmao.
Real books usually use the USN empirical formula, as well as various tables from real tests. And here’s the mystery: some ships, like USA ones, are very close to your numbers, while German ones are underestimated. Meanwhile, the French 330 mm or Soviet 305 mm guns of the Stalingrad class are clearly overestimated.
Do you know what the most funny thing is here?
Naval development and modelling is completely separate from the other modes, and you my friend, do not play naval, because if you did you wouldn’t be complaining about this issue.

Rodney and Nelson were interwar ships
Yes, I’m aware. The North Carolina’s were faster, more maneuverable, with more firepower and better fire control.
Heya. Is the placement of Vanguard after Warspite set in stone?
Seems very strange to me that it isnt placed after HMS Hood as another fast-battleship / battlecruiser?

That would be because the R&N were ~15 years older laid down in the early 1920’s - Treaty designs using essentially WW1 tech, and the NC’s were late 1930’s designs that had the benefit of not being constrained by any of that.
What would the quintessential british battleship be, even if it wasnt laid down? As most of the ships i know of are old designs and i would like to see what we could have made late war and what was proposed. Would it be the lion class i keep hearing about or is there another that people are overlooking?
You have HMS Lion
HMS King George V
G3-Class
There is also the N3 class but there isnt a suggestion for that

Were there any difference from KGV 1945 and DoY 1945?
Thanks, It may be heretical of me to say but i must. Italian ships do just look better… Was hoping there would be something out there we made that i would fall in love with but nothing compares to the littorio class ships. especially with the turret layout of the king george V with the 4 then 2 combination. just doesnt look right.

I thought the N3 would be ineligible due to no construction start?
Uh, very possible
First battleship i ever made in from the depths was based on the dunkirque (dont go telling the french this but they make REALLY, REALLY good looking ships).

I was also surprised by this, putting it after the Warspite makes no sense
You’re correct. Heard a rumour they started building guns for it but never seen anything remotely supporting that and it’s been literally a century.
