[RONIN] Bainsmit_steel Players 444 posts 20,243 battles Report post #1 Posted October 20, 2021 I got Tirpirz some time ago and I love the ship. Now Brandenburg come out. Honestly to me it looks like Tirpitz minus (only speed is better) but on another hand i like ships which have strong secondaries so I am wondering is it worth it to get it if I have Tipritz.... What are your opinions. Thank you, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got her for 1250 gold so for me she was worth it, for full price IDK TBH 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are your opinions. Thank you, If you have the Tirpitz and are happy with her, then no it's not worth it. Brandenburg plays like a battlecruiser. You need to switch ammo frequently to make her work. And it's better to maneuver in her than try to tank damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SPURD] Itwastuesday Players 1,768 posts 13,575 battles Report post #7 Posted October 20, 2021 I would say no, since you already have Tirpiz. The Brandenburg has more main battery firepower, but if you want that sort of thing you can just grind any random tech tree BB line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Objectively, not really; speaking as someone who treats these ships as enormously fat DDs with a built-in firework display (and mainly uses them in Coop), Tirpitz does the job better, plus - as pointed out by @hellhound666 - Brandenburg is nerfable. Subjectively, I still got her anyway, because I don't get easily bored with playing floating firework displays in Coop (especially when they have torps); there is also some value in the extra volume of fire from the main guns in Coop, where you can get close enough to get more hits. Sensible answer is 'no', and less sensible answer is probably something to do with 'moar dakka'... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are your opinions. Thank you, It is basically a less tanky, but more cruiser like Tirpitz. Cruiser like guns, cruiser like agility, less tanky (but better armor coz higher icebreaker and 80mm deck in some parts. I don't think its worth it. Better off with Odin or Derpitz, or even Bismarck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SHAD] Miscommunication_dept Players 5,512 posts 24,441 battles Report post #14 Posted October 20, 2021 You will probably be able to get a discount Tirpitz black on black friday. Previous years it has been 30% cheaper than the silver version and looks much nicer. I don't have brandenburg but I suspect Tirpitz is also stronger. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[M-P-M] Bigruss42 Players 126 posts 11,785 battles Report post #18 Posted October 20, 2021 Have got both and they're both good in different ways. Brandenburg is quicker and has a faster rudder shift, Tirpitz has more hp. Just done a comparison quick co-op battle with all the T8 German battleship/battlecruisers fairly equal results on them all including the Zieten Would have like to compare Odin with Brandenburg but it's no longer available.

Odin is a big cruiser, quite Graf Spee like. Brandenburg is a proper Battle Cruiser. I think I like her more than Agir, tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[B--S] colonel_duce Players 251 posts 8,519 battles Report post #22 Posted January 3, 2022 got both of them, secondaries on Brandenburg seems to me better than on Tirpitz, ship is more fun to play, however her armor is closer to Agir than to Tirpitz, HP wise it`s a problem. You need to know when to push. Should be played like Agir with devastating secondaries and extra turret. Anyway, it`s money well spent even if you have Tirpitz (or Pommern).
