Fixes that are required for the game to be healthy again.

Which is simply untrue. A Montana sitting broadside will suffer citadel hits if the enemy has aimed correctly period. It's not easy mode anymore as it was before, but the principle still stands. If you give broadside in a Monty, you're very likely going to get punished. Thus Monty remains one of the easier BBs to citadel, along with the rest of the high tier USN BBs. If you cannot do it, I strongly suggest you git gud. -

Both ingame armor scheme, which you refuse to acknowledge, and training room tests, which you specifically stated as a fundamental basis of your belief, disprove it. If you still want to cling to it, feel free to do so, but it still doesn't make it true. -

Now you're just embarrassing yourself. Ofc after the buff it got harder to citadel the Montana. That was the entire purpose of the buff. Fact still remains however that Monty is still one of the easier BBs to citadel when caught broadside. -
2nd most played T10 BB = almost extinct apparently

Git gud? Or if you want an in-combat example (and since NC has the same armor scheme): -

Been there, done that, can consistently citadel a broadside Montana from long to close range. -

Citadel armor belt -> penetrate that and you get a citadel. -
Lost because someone went for the greedy play and got punished instead of simply capping and winning by points. *sigh* Still, this ship remains one of the funniest things I've ever seen in this game. :D

Perhaps you just need to git gud? It's unlikely, but not fundamentally impossible unlike with GK. -
Former can be done without exposing yourself to planes, latter can be done with support. Same with DDs, yet I do not see you complaining. No other ship type can be shut down as easily as well. All other classes are capable of dealing damage no matter the situation, CVs get spotting instead. Would you prefer an impossible to avoid and shut down air strike every few minutes instead? Having all fundamentally different ship classes, which fulfill different roles, have the same amount of potential influence on a match is not only impossible to achieve, trying to balance such a game around such a flawed idiotic idea will actually hurt balance.

You're joking, right? GK has a turtleback, which is far more effective than an underwater citadel. Conqueror can still be citadelled at longer ranges. Montana has a waterline citadel and remains one of the easiest BBs to citadel. On higher tiers AP is actually pretty good afaik. Wrong question, you're the one who said the line has no gimmicks when it in fact has several. -

Yeah, currently all it does is giving clan mates a private chat room as well as automatically announcing if RNGesus has blessed anyone (= if someone built a rare ship), but apparently more is to come in the future. Costs 300 diamonds (aka real money) to make, but the game does give you a pretty good amount of those for free when completing certain challenges. -

Sent you a pm. :) We should probably share which server we're playing or starting to play on considering there is a clan feature. I know it doesn't do much now but it may prove beneficial in the future. On the Chinese version I'm playing on this one: -

Should be noted that you apparently need a separate .apk to access the Japanese server. The one you get from the official site is obviously the Chinese one. If someone wants to go through the hassle of spoofing location or getting the file through alternate means, here's the Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.YoStarJP.AzurLane&hl=ja EDIT: Managed to get it myself after some trial and error. If anyone wants it, drop me a pm and I'll send it to you. -

When you camp behind an island but enemy BBs also camp behind islands and you're the one with "bad" shell arcs. -
To be fair killstealing in CVs is indeed seriously stupid and should be condemned as such, as you're wasting one of the few strikes you can fly per match on a target that would've been dead anyway. There is really no justification for it unless the target has serious chances to get away or is the last one on the map.

- submarine citadel - short fuse AP - thermonuclear HE - 1/4 HE penetration - super heal I'm sorry, are we playing the same game? -
It is not only viable, it is perhaps the most crucial part of CV play currently, especially in high tiers where everything else will evaporate your planes instantly at the beginning of a match. The only thing that will ever save a DD from an early strike if he walked foolishly into a cap without support is DFAA. Smoke, even if you laid it unspotted, simply tells a good CV player your location. If you didn't move, your smoke can easily be saturated with torps, at the very least forcing you out. If you did move the way your smoke expands can be used to judge your location and orientation, making you an easy target.

Those are slated for the USN CA/CL split. Wichita already replaces NO at T8 in WoWs Blitz, with NO and Pensa getting bumped down a tier. Honestly, she'd probably be workable. Having 12" guns means she cannot overmatch 25mm plating, making angling against her effective in anything short of DDs. She'd probably be along the lines of a Moskva with harder hitting alpha and better penetration characteristics but worse reload, shell speed and arcs. Personally I'd like to see a Kongo in late war config.

Fify. Also there were "only" a little less than 400 aircraft involved, attacking the IJN fleet in three waves, with the first one (which was the largest by far) primarily concentrating on killing Yama's escorts. In fact, Yamato may have "shot down" more aircraft by exploding than with her guns. Seriously when bringing history to the table at least get your facts straight. Yamato was historically speaking obsolete by the time she came into service even if you only judge how the capabilities of battleships evolved and not naval warfare as a whole. To call her "the apex of BB development" is hilarious at best. In terms of realism Yamato is actually severely overbuffed. Ingame most of your complaints do not hold true. When spec'd for it Yamato has fairly workable concealment. Her shells literally cannot shatter/bounce on DDs except Khaba (even that is a rather rare occurrence from what I've seen) thanks to overmatch and are likely to deal catastrophic damage even if you only get overpens. She's one of, if not the most accurate BB in the game. Her AA is fairly decent, she actually weathers air strikes better than Monty due to her torp belt. All same tier BBs have the same chance to get set on fire. The only things you're right about are the abysmal turret traverse as well as being the slowest ship in her MM bracket.

Which means the DDs in your team sucked or your team failed to support them = having a worse team than the enemy. The loss your team suffers is well deserved.

This ship is such a hilarious blast to play. xD -
"Losing due to having a worse team than the enemy in a team based game is apparently not fair." Wat.

You do realize secondary guns are intentionally shafted in all aspects, right? Otherwise high tier USN BBs would have quite possibly the most effective secondary battery, consisting of 2 Gearings per side, each turret with a theoretical rof of 22 round per minute, which would make for a hilarious sight, really. As it stands the 5"/38 guns have barely half of what they could put out in rof, if not less. And for the sake of balance that's more than fine.
