The armor of the battleship Yamato far exceeds that of the battleship Iowa, and it is considered unreasonable for them to be in the same BR.
It is considered necessary to add a Montana-class battleship to keep the naval battleships in balance.
Iowa is Yamato’s equal as-is, and they share firepower similarities.
Iowa has faster turrets, likely a faster reload, and potentially other systems to keep both similar.
Actually. Dont think so
Yamato is going to be a glass canon. Her ammo racks arent that well protected. Im not overly concerned about fighting her in Vanguard
I’ve some concerns if I manage to make it to Richelieu, provided they don’t resolve the first turret being crippled and useless for the rest of a fight for very questionable reasons at the first round to hit it. Would make yamato a bit unfun to deal with if the issue persists from Dunkerque and Strasbourg.
But I would actually have to be able to get matches to progress the tree to reach Richelieu, and that’s a lost cause.
The loading speed is considered to be the same for Iowa and Yamato.
Furthermore, battleships are usually angled to get closer or further away, so the safe distance is much closer than it appears.
For this reason, I believe we need a Montana class battleship with armor equal to that of the Yamato.
Montana cannot be added as it was never laid down.
Gaijin sometimes seem to implement the weapons of the plan perfectly.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Both the A-150 and Montana are viable to be added at a later date as both vessels have major components produced which is enough to consider them “prototypes” under gaijin’s additions regulations for ships.
USSR has zero paper ships in-game.
If your posts are going to contain lies, make it more believable.
If we are going to add Montana to the game it would be unfair not to add A-150, H-41, etc.
If we push battleships any further, we will start a WoWs-like race to build paper plan ships, so we should move to the missile era, as in WT Mobile.
Shouldn’t we add BB Super Yamato to compete with Montana?
Shouldn’t we add the actual IRL 16" nuclear shells to Iowa/Montana to beat the Super Yamato
Yes just after ground get this 2B1 Oka - Wikipedia . Also I’m pretty sure the New BB in URSS tech tree can use it Aswell.
Nukes in ground vs naval combat are not the same.
And no, the USSR BB cant
You realize the “Katie” nuclear shells are real right, not fake like the insane pen on Soviet Soyuz
Yeah I think the Iowa fire rate is two rounds a minute and the yamato was 1.5 keyboards being I think
Problem of Yamato comes from here. Yamato’s armor got weaker when it angled.
She’s quite a Japanese style standard battleship. Iowa will do well against her.
No Montana needed against Yamato.
From what ive seen with others playing around in the dev server. Iowa might very well do well against Yamato purely because she can angle without exposing a major weakness.
Yamato cannot go bow in for any reason because thats an instant shot into the magazines.
No matter how well the Iowa was prepared to defend itself, after only one bombardment, it was sunk not only by the Yamato but also by the Soyuz and the Roman bombardment.
