You sure about that
Because it seems like i did here
One was rumoured to be delayed last major. Wait for the Dev Stream tomorrow and see if one is revealed for the US this update

Really, that is good to hear ! Hopefully that is true.
LoL Sometimes it seems that way. But, I think in all honesty, that Snail is really trying to maintain game balance whilst not offending others national loyalties - which is an impossible task. I think however that they go over the top in doing so, and end up twisting history into a pretzel in the process.
Rennie isnt a troll. The USN never had 410mm guns 16"/50 is 406mm and he was just pointing out the inaccuracy in your title only for you to be aggro back.

I think this is more from a game balance perspective, the USSRs top tier ship is just a British ww1 ship so the real cool British, german, American and Japanese stuff cant be added too easy
USSR’s top ship is a fictional Kronshtadt which only had a keel laid. The hair splitting over incorrectly labeling a 16 inch 45 caliber naval rifle as a generic 410mm crossed the line and was frankly just obnoxious period. So yea I was lazy, for which the game does to a painful degree by referring to, for a single example of many, all .30 caliber machine guns (ballistic caliber, not artillery) as 7.62mm, which they are not. OK so if it wasn’t trolling it was so OCD as to be deliberately annoying. It also wasn’t the point, which is when does USN get a capital ship with a battery larger than 14" when 3 nations already have. And cherry picking facts to derail and twist a topic is the definition of trolling, sorry. But I do appreciate the candid, cogent and mature presentation. I just think you are completely wrong.
Mate the WT community is autistic af when it comes to completed vehicles accuracy. I spent a couple days working on a bug report for the thickness of armour on the tortoise assaust tank after all. the difference in bore size to what you said is like calling the sherman 76 an 80mm gun it just rubs people wrong.
the main issue with that is that the US ships with the meatier guns were also superior in armour. its just an issue of balancing which will slowly be less of a problem unless gaijin abandons naval
Who cares about US ships, what naval player wants is glorious Yamato battle ship
While the fast battleships range from good to arguably superlative the Colorados won’t move the meta one bit and probably should’ve been the first 16” ships in game from a balance perspective. With the model looking to be a fit carrying the 5”/25 it will be in about every possible respect worse than Rodney and Mutsu. The only way I could see it being an upgrade to Tennessee is if they increase the rpm to 2 only for the 16”/45 and not the 14” guns, if they don’t do that I’m somewhat confident in saying that it will be worse than Nevada.

As soon as they decompress BR and put it at say 10.7, then yeah sure ;)
Well I actually love the Nevada, I think what is totally out of wack is the ridiculously long reload rates for USN capital ships.
Fair point you’re not wrong there
First, it is not top ship anymore, there are Novorossiysk and Arkhangelsk in tree, and actually they are better choice.
Two. Britain and Japan. Olivia’s leak of Soyuz actually not seems like about this update, rather ‘start to develop’ as usual Olivia’s leak intend. And there are also Colorado in same leak list.
I actually did a report on that, which was accepted but has not been implemented. Reloads for all US superdreads should be anywhere between 2-2.5rpm based off irl firing trials. It had been thought previously that the rate of fire decreased after the 30s modernizations but I found a primary source document saying otherwise. I hope they do get around to changing it eventually as outside the reload the standards are a joy to play in my opinion.

Well this post aged like milk.
Colorado’s in the leak.
Do you have a Link? Or are you, as usual, just repeating something you read from someone else who actually knows?
Any hint that they might? Because that is something I really want to see changed
I’ve asked HK a couple times and so far no news about them changing it. Perhaps once proper fast battleships start getting added it could be changed to keep them relevant(copium).
