As an Italian naval player i found the Duilio and conte di Cavour really good ships.

I’ve heard this before 😔 I’m sure a fire in the turret will blow it in 5 seconds.
Speaking of… is there any word on the Sevastopol? It seems like if your crew doesn’t extinguish a barbette fire in literally 3 seconds you blow up.

More heavy ships!
Oh I understand. Revenge class had to be in the tech tree a long time ago, when the top tier was 7.0.
They spend so many updates filling up the British tree with ww1 battleships instead of adding Warspite (earlier) and also any Revenge class ship.
I won’t be surprised if the first Revenge class ship in British tt will be an event vehicle.

Stona is going to be correct on this one Late Italian BB in by opinion are good at not exploding the much. I find USA premium BB ships to at time be the worse at cook offs as its a hit the front magazine hit the back collect the win in under a minute.
Maybe, but I’ve been having great success ammo racking Italian BBs by shooting the barbettes. Not nearly as easily as the Sevastopol though. Literally I can ammo rack that ship with secondary cannon fire. If it catches on fire it’s a guaranteed kill

Not even hiding its copy paste anymore…
We reached 80$ now? HAHAHHHAHAHA
Now I would like the battleship Almirante Latorre in British service as HMS Canada, and the later modernized Chilean variant, please hehe.
Does that mean we will never see a USS IOWA with the missiles upgrades?
Maybe Hyūga battle carrier re-fit?
Its not bad you got 8 guns, lots of Anti-Air and the planes can be used to cap points.
Will they have classic Italian worse RoF or better RoF from the Soviet clone?
PS I’m going to laugh either way.

boat blog 80USD for a boat… well if you like boats … then I guess what can I say I’ve bought a few premiums myself
I have to say, this feels like a missed opportunity. I was really hoping we would get a Littorio-class battleship instead of this. The Littorio premium would have been a much more interesting and fitting addition, especially given its historical significance and beautiful design.
Is there still any chance this could be reconsidered in favour of a Littorio-class battleship? I think it would be a much more exciting addition for the Italy and something a lot of players would be interested in buying.
Please, please gaijin, add the most historically important BB of the Italian navy behind a 80$ paywall, dont make it free so everybody cant get it.

Don’t get your knickers in a twist, you can buy these ships during sales and save a lot of money, so I think that would be more valuable than making it an event vehicle. If not, I’d want it added to the tech tree. I have a feeling it might end up as an event vehicle, though, which would be pretty annoying since there wouldn’t be any bonuses.
They could’ve at least made the model look a little prettier. World of Warships made theirs look really cool, with the stripes on the deck and everything. Even an Andrea Doria-class battleship would’ve been cooler.
World of Warships did the Giulio Cesare better than War Thunder. The ship also seems to be missing the iconic green hull, while having the red hull like the war prize Novorossiysk.
Spoiler
One thing I’ve learned about Gaijin is that they love releasing premiums with missing features and ugly models. The F-14D is a good example, with a model that had to be tweaked a tiny bit because it didn’t look good. Then there’s the Challenger DS, which is still missing its additional armour despite all the Challengers that took part in Operation Granby being fitted with it. It’s been years, and it still hasn’t been added.
And now we’ve got this expensive premium battleship with a red hull, a red Soviet-style deck, and the grey parts of the camouflage look eerily similar to the standard Soviet grey battleship colour in game.
At this point, it’s getting a bit ridiculous.
