How can I then overmatch some ship nose form forward? Because - as stated in the video itself - the first check is the overmatch-check. After this follows the ricochet-check. Seconds before your timestamp the narrator even declares it, again! Quote from 2:22min: "...the 14.3 caliber rule doesn't work with 203mm. Next, the second check applies: the ricochet calculation."

As @principat121 already mentioned, the video itself right were you linked it even says: Quote "Next, the second check applies: the ricochet calculation." If the 14.3 caliber rule (aka overmatch) is true, there will be no ricochet check. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
