I’m just confused on why britains rank 6 naval is only 2 ship when in this time period britain had the largest navy of any country in the world, yet russia a nation that barely had a fleet has double our rank 6s and quadrupole the amount of tech tree 7.0s
“the largest navy in the world in the 1930s”
It’s an excellent question. No idea we could easily have the best naval TT and the largest but nope, not allowed apparently
Riley has a really good thread for this issue
yeah I dont really get it tbh, the devs can say they dont have a bias against the british but with how they treat our naval compared to everyone else i doubt it
Yep, at least we’ve been promised a new Rank 6 TT item this year, but lets just hope it isnt made instantly redundant by them adding Rank 7s to other TTs at the same time. It is very annoying that our last Rank 6 was added 2 years ago and we’ve been reliant on event vehicles to flush out our lineup for The Hood
yeah its why I havent finished my grind for top tier british naval, it seems like there just isnt a line up for it
At least not without Renown and Barham. Though even with those, I tend to stick with Belfast/London/Tiger at 5.7
Why is this in the GF section?? Misclick OP?
But I guess it’s the good ol Brutish Tax at work as the devs quite frankly hate the brits. But smins did say that all nations would be receiving further new ships to properly fill out the sixth rank, So the brits might get something this update or the next.
On the bright side the poms frigate force is pretty filled up compared to a few nations.
its not the size that matters, its the motion of the ocean…
Yep, though I think the fear is, is that the moment we do, Germany is going to get a Rank 7 like Bismark and we will be immediately back to square one
Who knows at this point.
I figure by now the UK should have had Marlborough and King George V 1911(My picks would actually be Centurion or Ajax) at 6.7.
Then a modernised QE class, probably Warspite or Valiant or both, and a modernised R class (My picks would be Resolution or Revenge as both had armour addons and the full AA mods that RO and Ramillies got).
Couple that with Hood and that is at least 3 but arguably it should be 4 or more 7.0s which I believe is fair for what should be the largest battleship tree in-game.
With supercharges, Hood receiving improved rounds, HE-VT for the BB’s etc this should tie the UK nicely over until the next step.
The Next step in my opinion would be the KGV class 1938, as they likely will not receive an armour modifier buff this leaves them relatively limited by having all 3 relevant treaties applies to them (WNT 1st & 2nd London Naval Treaty). So they have just got 14" guns, the faceplates are relatively weak and won’t be continuously angled by sea states like irl (as WT has perfectly still water), reload isn’t that good due to lack of power-assisted ramming, radar and FCS is not modelled fully, weather isn’t present, shell dispersion seems to be pulled out of a hat etcetera.
Whereas the next most limited (NoCal) is solely limited by the WNT and has the escalator clause invoked.
