Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 2)

that would be nice, I seem to remember that in some devblog images some of the naval aircraft had their wings folded

We have some horrible/beautiful Hybrids in stock if it’s what you want :p

Chaffee with amx13 turret.

Their rule was to be laid down, which Kron was, and that opens doors to H-39 for Germany aswell as they´d stop being competetive pretty soon as Bismarck and Tirpitz gets outclassed by others fairly quickly.

huh? Is 12v12 any different then?

Like I said your experience varies. I don’t really enjoy Haruna so I dropped her and tali’d Fuso instead, way more fun. I also had more fun in Settsu too, though I also did play Settsu more.
Kongo remains the only ship in the tree I sill don’t have, maybe I’d go back and finish research if they lowered the class to 6.7 where they should’ve been in the first place.

Mabye it was the mechanic that delayed mondays devlog? Hmmmm

I would be genuinely mad. Not adding Yamato is like not adding the Tiger 2

Yamato is confirmed. My only worry is that as I said she will stomp anything. Sure they could attempt to model western armour compositions increasing effective thickness, as well as supercharges etcetera, but the fact is that the Yamato in war thunder will just be like fighting in an uptier every single match.

Perhaps they will add Yamato at a br with ASHM’s. Honestly imo the easiest option would be to just not add her, but that isn’t favourable at all. My guess is that she faces something like a Kirov class.

We know Yamato will eventually get added. And even if we didn’t know it as a fact they can’t not add her. Japan has nothing between Nagato and Yamato aside from incomplete hulls. Unless they literally don’t add any inter-war ships at all they’d have to add Yamato as some point.

Yeah, best bet is post-WW2 vessels, stuff that are both equipped with more advnaced weapons/armour and are faster to flank, like Vanguard. Prehaps also a new class, Super-battleship with a team cap. no more than 2-3 per team

Never enough FL turrets in the game !

Can’t wait for our costal… I have a ship in mind with this turret too x)

Thats what i mean, there’s no chance in hell Yamato gets skipped, but she’ll be near impossible to fight without some sort of handicap, whether that be western metal working yielding armour buffs, or just limiting the number per match to 4 as it would be if they were in a full uptier.

I have no idea if they intend to stop with the Yamato or move onto missile armed ships. In which case a Kirov class could be a good counter.

yamato has meh dispersion on guns and was pretty slow however.

Not that speed matters that much in naval though

I suppose the only issue with folding wings is they wouldn’t have a great deal of use outside of cinematics, sorta like dozer blades @lxtav

They´d just fill it with stuff like Izumo, Azuma, Kii and other non completed things. And as Brits got Glorious as BC and not as carrier,we might see Kaga as BB and Lexington as BC.

True dispersion will play a factor but an 18-inch shell being fired at a 45,000 tonne ship is probably going to hit somewhere, and wherever that is its going to hit HARD.

And speed is unfortunately rendered useless in naval.

Would be a nice gimmick like ejection seats, mabye added alongside spawning inside of hangers/ aircarft carriers for sim
