The only trolls are the people that want to see it overtiered.

Yeah, because all people want is our very own KanonenJagdpanzer in World of Warships, if the KGV is made Tier 8 is going to be the least useful ship at that tier, and I am not a fan of giving it 15" guns for the sake of making it a Tier 8 ship. As it stands, it is a tier 7 ship, not a tier 8 by ANY margin. The guns are Tier 6, the armour is Tier 7.5, that makes it quite comfortable at Tier 7 in the same way HMS Vanguard, a ship with similar armour scheme as the KGV class and 15" guns is quite comfortable at Tier 8.

Vanguard has 15" guns, and is more comparable to Bismarck. But atleast I'm not a complete [edited]and know where the KGV should be placed.

No, more interested in the 4th Anniversary Live Stream for SC, and I'm not at all wrong. But please, carry on overestimating the KGV class. Same goes for you actually goes for you when it comes to time wasting.

Only when ti comes to Mainbelt, the NC has better protection with Angling taken into account. Like I said. And no, end of story is the NC, Tirpitz, and pretty much every Tier 8 Battleship currently, is better than the KGV.

North Carolina is much better than the KGV in terms of both armour, protection and firepower, but I can see you a likely looking or an argument. So enjoy your stay on my BL since I got much better things to do with my life.

Deck armour is only 6" around the magazine, 5" around the Machinery, 14.7" at most, with the thickest around the magazine, only the Belt armour is better than NC, but in terms of offering protection the NC offers better protection around vital areas of the ship with exception to ammunition storage, KGV will be easier to score a Citadel on.

Because the only thing that is better, is the main belt but the armour around the citadel, and other machinery, is worse than that of the North Carolina with the thickest armour being over the Ammo Storage. It's a funny thing though, because most people overestimate the effectiveness of the King George V's armour scheme.

And there was people comparing it to North Carolina...... Izumo is now the new trend or something? In fact it it technically worse than North Carolina. But as I said, I'm not here to look for an argument, if you want, you won't be getting one.

KGV should do fine, long as it isn't placed too high, like at tier 8 (and no, I don't want an argument about it, I have already a lot of info to prove that it should be Tier 7 and not 8).

Battleships aren't the least effective at all in history.

I just hope when we do get HMS Hood, she get's her 1942 refit, the one she would have had if not for Bismarck. http://www.hmshood.com/history/construct/repair42.htm

Another ship they need to add, since Conway has suggested there will be more Commonwealth ships, is HMAS Australia in her 1945 refit: 6 × 8-inch guns (3 twin turrets) 8 × 4-inch guns (4 twin mounts) 8 × 40 mm Bofors guns 16 × .303-inch machine guns 4 × 3-pounder saluting guns

More Commonwealth ships? Please give HMCS Ontario xD

Bigger guns. No other nation has 15" guns at tier 5 or 6. Also they would have better spread for balance.

But what good are they if the instrument labels are upside down?

I don't exactly agree with giving them guns they never had with both ships being capable at Tier 5 and 6 or 6 and 7 respectively already.

Battlecruisers will most likely be in a BB line, as many historians, the US Navy at the time, regarded Hood and other British Battlecruisers as Fast Battleships. Also I think it would be nice to see HMS Hood as a premium in the configuration in which she sank, with HMS Howe being a standard ship with the refit Hood would have received if World War 2 never broke out in 1939.

I'm 92 miles from Barnsley in the rats nest we call Spalding.

That is funny, it has HE which the original does not, guess WG truly are using it as a selling point for British ships (as in, you want HE buy a premium).

Wonder if we'll get anything for Christmas. Would be fun playing around with a Christmas decorated Yamato hehehe

I completed it on the first attempt of the second day with the Jackal. Lost 2 ships, including my own, but we got all but 1 objective and got the ship to the portal with 34K HP left.

In retrospect, the mission should be easy, but from my observations, there is a lack of teamwork. In terms of strategy - Battleships need to concentrate on the Catapults, they are the main threat to both the players and the VIP. Cruisers need to stay close and cover the VIP from all flanks, and the Destroyers need to torpedo the stragglers, also ignore the rear guard, the 3 battleships are so far away they are not a large threat. And everyone needs to take on the Rasputin soon as it appears, at 200'000 HP makes the largest threat on the map.

Wrong. Just have your BB's take em out, a single salvo of AP can take one out from full HP.
