well the “top” performers have a 3-3.5 RPM
Ouch…
I hope at least the fact that all the firepower can be send without showing the broadside gonna add something good on the WT gameplay.
A part of me is ready for the Dunkerque to be the worst 7.0 already :(
But i don’t care, quad power !

depends on how well protected the front ammo is but you will be able to protect the crew more

No actual leak list had top ships for UK, Italy, France, or Germany. That’s based on Smin saying before the launch of DoD that there would be new rank VI ships for every nation in the “next two updates.” If we assume that DoD was included, which included Rank VI ships for USSR, USA, and Japan, that leaves UK, Italy, France, and Germany for this update.
Roma is possible, but Francesco Caracciolo would be a better fit in the current meta.
The funny part is the Dunkerque was made to counter Deutshland and Littorio (?) class.
With the Sharnorst and others more advanced ships already here, it’s saddly gonna be still some food for them i think.
And on some of them the top mounted M2 .50 cal was replaced by M3 .50 cal, also sourced from said Sabres
I believe this video courtesy of @Til_Dovre_Faller shows an M3, notice the high RoF compared to regular M2

iirc her bulkheads are about 8" or 9" (her belt actually)
Actually no I think theyre 12" sorry
from looking at the current french BB’s they ammo placement seems quite poor
Our old 1925s BBS have massive ammo storrage with no armor around, yep (and the big number of heavy secondary don’t help)
Dunkerque is slightly better from what i can found
Even if not perfect, it’s years ahead what we have now xD

I think itd help if there’s wasnt so much ammo
um the only 2 memorable encounters with french BB’s i can remember is ammo racking the same guy with 15 inch sap shells at range with first or second salvos

I hope the leak-list is wrong about Sweden getting nothing. It would make sense considering last update (filler premium) but i guess i can hope.

If it weren’t for Gszabi saying anything, I would assume that this doesn’t have anything to do with submarines and is instead just a new effect for Naval mode, making ships sinking seem more realistic with debris coming up afterwards.
But you know I’m going to get hyped about anything relating to submarines so LET’S GOOOOOOOOO
Same brother same I need something to grind
Having every single aircraft for both of my main trees sucks
