Pre-order: Battleship Gneisenau and Battlecruiser Sevastopol

As the US

No, because that means someone will still have advantages.

Reversion to aiming how it was at least a year ago would be best.

I dropped playing arcade naval for the new aiming system alone.

Plus it lends to more boting as is, as is can be disgustingly easy to disguise now.

especially since the Sevastopol was laid down in 1939, and the Bismarck herself was completed, and Sunk before Operation Barbarossa started, While Tirpitz had also been commissioned before Barbarossa

the biggest fantasy in all of this is the USSR even being able to create even a quarter of the ships it had planned considering the absolutely laughable state of their naval production capability

Sure

At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the ship fleet of the (RKKF) consisted of 3 battleships, 7 cruisers, 59 leaders and destroyers, 218 submarines, 269 torpedo boats, 22 patrol ships, 88 minesweepers, 77 submarine hunters, and a number of other ships and boats, as well as auxiliary vessels. Under construction were 219 ships, including 3 battleships, 2 heavy and 7 light cruisers, 45 destroyers, and 91 submarines.

The losses of the Soviet Navy during the war amounted to 1,014 ships of various classes, including 2 cruisers, 4 leaders, 30 destroyers, 102 submarines, 34 patrol ships, 91 minesweepers, 128 submarine hunters, 139 torpedo boats, 77 patrol boats, 34 armored boats, 5 minelayers, and 197 auxiliary vessels (rescue ships, hydrographic ships, etc.).

Scharnhorat entered service the same year as Bismarck. Gneisenau one year earlier.

The guns were planned to be the same.

The ammunition would have been the same or more modern.

Absolute madness, the Soviet paper fleet in particular.

I only hope Gneisenau will find it’s way into the game in a configuration that actually was realised.
In similar fashion to Strasbourg perhaps.

Guys should I buy the Gneisenau? I know it’s $150 but like… she’s pretty… and I really want to get into naval

Scharnhorst was in service 5 years before Bismarck even hit the water

As always I think its best to wait until the update drops, so you can test drive her and see if you actually want to play Naval, or just like the idea of playing it.

I mean I’ve been enjoying it so far, I have up to 5.0 in Britain but my main issue is that research takes FOREVER. I don’t have any naval premiums (aside Moffett but she’s awful) and I don’t have premium time

Yeah researching anything takes years, but keep in mind if your buying a BB, that they play very differently to a CL, CA, or DD. So if you do want to play that way, then I think it’s a decent Idea if you do want to grind Germany, which it should be good at.

However I would still wait for it to drop, so that you accidentally don’t pre-order a dud

Source?

The top ships are so rushed that I can name at least one ship that can come for every nation.

At pathetic that we still not have 7.7 or even 7.3

Rushed? 5 years since first battleships came out

Well we will get 7.3 this update.
But the sheer thought of a Yamato class facing first or second generation dreadnoughts at 6.3 is very amusing

Yeah, 6 more months at least.

And you don’t consider the seabed levels of compression 6.7 & 7.0 has

That is why we should have had 7.7 months ago. Roma and equivalents could go there while Iowa and Yamato would move into the new BR bracket
