Shh, don't spoil his narrative

Initially yes, ARP ships were limited to their own captains. Then they turned into IJN premium/collector boats. And I dont mean different voiceover, just additional line when starting battle in case of ship matching the captain

Trajectory matters, ie the latter you drop the higher chance of bomb exploding before reaching citadel, which is I think the reason why FR/UK battleboats are immune to citadels from above.

No amount of sake can explain bomb going backwards when bombers exit their dive

Get familiar with this guy And then look upon citadel from above, on quite a number of ships its smaller than one might think.

FB required, so nope.avi. And Asashio dropped only so far... no bueno Boss fight theme is lit though

IIRC even Arpeggio collab had voiceover change if you were using lets say, Kongo on normal ship and you had Kongo on her Kongo. So imagine possibilities for ship class or ship specific kill. Or friendly ramming

I'd point at least one existing prem carrier that could be safely downtiered to tier 6 and get historical complement of planes instead wehraboo wet dreams Also Saratoga/Lexington with 8x203 secondaries. And if there is carrier worth using UK carpet bombing, its the Hornet with B-25s

Obviously, buff Indentable. Can't have some colony biplane from the past outrun smug plywood plane delivering Tea to the surface peasants

Midway had and still has 32mm HE pen. Not 27mm. Even T10 cruisers are going to show you quite a middle finger against that

10k on first salvo, then you get Kebab vs exhausted superstructure experience ie making lots of noise for not so much of an effect. Unless Indentable comes with button to be guaranteed top tier, I'll pass Plane speed is kek/10 tho

Then Indentable have only 32mm HE bombs from Implantable, so... *laughs in armored deck*

There was mention from EU staff consumable Fighters might get tied to tactical map, so you can plant them that way instead arsing your planes across the map, but it was some time ago

Or you could count entire armored box as citadel, which is the case for Yamato, pre change Iowa/Monty and like every cruiser out there, with Germans retaining their citadel placement/protection as gimmick unique to them, like in 2016 But then, when you have increasing amount of paper guns outgunning Yamato in terms of penetration, it can be an issue. So some penetration reduction across the chart with exception of Yamato?

There is/should be armored deck, same in NC/Iowa/Montana which is omitted because armor groups being what they are AND inability to look from below in le port Before Iowa/Monty got their citadels lowered, you could clearly see 152mm citadel roof plating. And currently any BB grade munitions can overmatch central citadel roof in Conquek, assuming you punch through main belt and are far enough to shell actually meet with underwater cit.

Prime question how citadel raise will affect her vulnerability to AP bombs, as now Conquek and Croissant BBs are rather immune to citadels from above due too large distance between deck and cit itself.

Depends which Nurnberg footage you've watched as IIRC some years ago she got turret traverse buff, sitting now at rather comfortable 7.6degrees/sec or 23.7s/180deg, as its portrayed in game. And then rear turrets have 360 turret traverse. Henri IV is BIG ship and then she is the most suitable for open water with double rudder upgrades and Engine Boost roaring, clocking up to 44kts in straights. Quite a feat for a cruiser Only thing that changed for UK cruisers is introduction of smoke firing penalty, so when smoked and firing, anyone closer than +-5km will spot you. Anyone familiar with concept of angling can greatly mitigate effectiveness of Tea Cruisers.

Nah, thats just russian way of things getting done Guessing that would be the time when marketing crowd wakes up and starts their coffee machine?

Pick one: -soon -soon(tm) -working as intended -its done when its done

I've took Midway for a spin in training room against derpstroyers... Crosshair seems to properly indicate dispersion now, not that it nerfs her in any impactful way against DDs unless RNGesus repeatedly keep saying nyet, which was the case before so... shelve yer pitchforks? Patch was server side

4torp setup was, is and will be a meme, 2TB is way to go. And her as well Shokek on top of aiming time buffs got increased deck capacity for TB. Handy for TB oriented carriers. Top it off with aerial spot not better than AA range and IJN are ok in my book, maybe rocket buffs against DDs and Shokek AP bombs to be viable against more than Bismarck.

She got buffed already

Still, armor on a cruiser is something you don't want to put too much faith in. There are examples of kek like Baltimore/Hipper vs 380mm armed battleships (or any other non UK T8 vs 350mm guns), but those are rather rare encounters

Nor IJN. But Midway might need extra RNGesus shrine
