[CSOL] TheKaramelka Players 241 posts 3,747 battles Report post #1 Posted December 27, 2022 Please excuse me for making a second proposal for an alternative branch of Britain, but I just really like them very much, very beautiful ships and quite cool, so I am drawn to them and I made a second proposal for a branch of British battleships. Tech tree features: Pros: Excellent concealment for a battleship Incredibly quick rudder shift for a battleship Has access to Specialized Repair Teams, can restore large amounts of hitpoints per charge Decent mid-range AA suite, along with short-range AA Powerful guns with outstanding accuracy. Damage Control Party takes 90 seconds to cool down — like cruisers — much faster than 120 seconds on most other battleships. Secondaries have much higher accuracy and shorter reload time in comparison to her counterparts. Ability to use Hydroacoustic Search and Main Battery Reload Booster. Uses British battleship HE shells and standart AP shells Cons: Large and exposed citadel block which rises well above the waterline Weak armor scheme, especially against HE spam. Weak torpedo protection. Low shell velocity. Short maximum firing range Despite having a fast cooldown, Damage Control Party is only active for 5 seconds (like on cruisers and destroyers). Reloading of the main caliber is longer than other ships with the same caliber Representatives: Spoiler British battleship Hercules, Tier III: Colossus-class battleship. Initially, the ships were supposed to be of the same type as the Neptune battleship, but they received more powerful armor and were separated into a separate type. The last dreadnoughts of the Royal Navy, armed with 12-inch (305 mm) guns.

[I-J-N] Karasu_Browarszky [I-J-N] Players 13,025 posts Report post #2 Posted December 27, 2022 Are you sure we need this many BB's? The game already has a disproportionate number of BB's, both in terms of ship models and MM. It's the DD's and cruisers which need more options, IMO. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, the suggestions are nice, all the best... (PS: myslím, že bitevek je ve hře něúrekom vela čili jak nasr*no :) ) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[I-J-N] Karasu_Browarszky [I-J-N] Players 13,025 posts Report post #4 Posted December 27, 2022 OP's suggestions are interesting and welcome, of course. There are many real ships (and project designs) that have not made it into the game. We don't know if WG is planning on some limit (unlikely) or if they plan to release more and more ships over time. I'm just wishing they'd think more of the overall game development than just think that more ships equals more content. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You would read everything and not just the cons Sorry but even with that then just don't see how going to survive in close to deal damage. Good Concealment helps you get in close without spotted however once firing then concealment upto gun range so that gone and now spotted out to range of main guns. So get MBRB, how long that last and how short going to bring reload down to from that longer reload. In the meantime spotted and HE spam coming in left right and centre. In 90sec going to eat a LOT of damage even with quick rudder shift. unless take down your opponent very quickly. Yes can repair but can you repair quicker then damage incoming. If turning quick to avoid/dodge then what is the turret traverse rate as need to keep guns focused and if turning quicker then guns can traverse then not going to get shots out. Accuracy with Powerful guns is good however unless can reload quickly and sustained for a while then unless almost gaurantee to oneshot your target then now going to be spotted and spammed. Going to have to pick targets to close into very carefully, ie no torps on them. To make use of the secondaries then going to have to be in close so reaction time even with quick rudder shift going to have to be quick as low torpedo protection and again can your main battery turn quickly enough. So basically ambush low health single ships so can get in close, shoot them up with your basically 1 shot whilst dodge and turn like crazy as afterwards need to dodge HE spam and torps whilst relying on secondaries unless main guns reload reduced so can shoot multiple rounds off providing can keep them trained on ship which if in close going to have to be quick.

It's perfectly possible to construct four RN BB lines. The Conqueror line bears no resemblance to what the RN was thinking of building in 1945 (there are lots of options, from Super-Lion types to Richelieu type "all forward" light, nimble BBs, largely with 406mm guns) and there are the "super heavy" BBs of the U and N3 designs, which would have unusually large calibre guns at lower Tiers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest, what you wrote is already too much. You want a mega weapon without cons that can dismember everything without having bad sides. As if all performance characteristics are painted for each ship, visibility of 13 km at level 10 is not so bad in my opinion. Sigma 2.05, on T10. With all this, the reload time is like that of the Kremlin (and the Kremlin also positions itself as a melee ship). And in my opinion Conqeror heals half of the face, if not completely. The firing range of the Secondary can be pumped up to 11.6 km, and the camouflage - 11.7. Are these bad numbers in your opinion? In this case, you need a ship with a Preussen hull, HE shells from Thunderer, AP shells like Vermont, with penetration like Slava, secondary like Schlieffen and maneuverability like Republique 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SURFA] mdjmcnally Players 434 posts 18,350 battles Report post #16 Posted December 28, 2022 Not asking for a mega weapon, am trying to understand how this line works as not seeing how works from your description. isn’t a stand-off as short range guns. isn’t really brawling as weak armour and exposed citadel so going to die quickly if brawl, exposing that citadel. long reload for calibre then also not going to pump out shells to damage the other ships whilst taking the damage in return. once fired the gun then your good concealment that lets you get in close is gone. so how would you envision this line working/play style. is it a sneak in and ambush, fire off a salvo and then try to disengage quickly style, whilst dodging to try and avoid the return fire till your gun bloom diminishes and good concealment allows disengagement. Seems fairly high risk and situational or am I misunderstanding the idea of the line? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems fairly high risk and situational or am I misunderstanding the idea of the line? well, look, there is an MBRB that speeds up reloading by 50%, with a duration of 25 seconds (like Collingwood). Secondly, the Specalized repair party restores up to 75% of health, while the amount here is standard - 4 pieces and not 3, if you want, it will also restore citadel damage by 25% (However, as mentioned above, even the Converter can restore half of the face with such the same citadel and the same Repair party.Damage control party cooldown is also faster by 30 seconds, which in my opinion contributes to survival.AP here is ordinary, similar to the Kremlin and Vermont, with high one-time damage and penetration, landmines here like Thunderer, with better accuracy, and in a salvo there are 9 shells and not 8.

Secondly, the Specalized repair party restores up to 75% of health, while the amount here is standard - 4 pieces and not 3, if you want, it will also restore citadel damage by 25% (However, as mentioned above, even the Converter can restore half of the face with such the same citadel and the same Repair party.Damage control party cooldown is also faster by 30 seconds, which in my opinion contributes to survival.AP here is ordinary, similar to the Kremlin and Vermont, with high one-time damage and penetration, landmines here like Thunderer, with better accuracy, and in a salvo there are 9 shells and not 8. And at the same time, the rudder shift time is 10.4 seconds, the circulation radius is 750 m and the visibility is 11.7 pumped - is this bad for you? Then I tell you, you need a super -mega ship, because inflicting high damage without any consequences for yourself - excuse me, this is too much And I will ask you again. what is the playstyle that you envision for this line.? not sure why this is such a difficult question, as surely when putting together a line you have an idea of how will play them so give the ship’s characteristics for that style. none of those ships that you mention are ships that build into secondaries and close in for short range engagements. kremlins have poor side protection so keep nose in, medium range. vermonts certainly do not close in with there concealment and reload time but do have decent armour unless make a mistake, thunderers again you don’t see sailing in close for scondaries, again has decemt armour unless player makes mistake. kremlins and thunderer tend to see more medium range, one nose in the other more movement based. vermonts tend to be long to medium range. so 3 different style of play which with 3 nations would expect. this ship line to me with out you answering my question regarding envisioned playstyle seems confused. on the one hand good concealment and secondary’s and manoeuvrability and hydro indicating close in style. Mbrb allows you to get off some shots for a short amount of time not consistently, damage repair etc helps but isn’t going to keep alive to brawl close in with your secondaries. on the other hand Shorter range main guns, weak armour and slower reload indicating more of a more medium distance and kiting which with the manoeuvrability will help from taking hits which needed with the poor armour, however the hydro and secondaries become less to build into with here. Hits you do take can repair dame too, hiwever won’t be using the secondaries here. I even provided what I thought maybe the idea of sneak in with concealment, ambush unload guns and then dodge to disengage, however you seem to have ignored that for some reason. I am NOT asking for a mega ship that can press W, roll my face on keyboard, destroy everything and then sail off towards the CV and then take that down as well, any more than you want an echo chamber, where everyone tells you, well done, you are fantastic, you should be WG ship design team lead. what i am asking is how you see the ships being used as I am seeing contradictions in the characteristics been given, initial thought was close in brawl but then going to take high damage, hence why gave my original short answer and then afterward when expand you say I type to much. These ships at the moment seem confused, you seem to have a vision of where going but I am just not seeing it from the original post or subsequent ones. so how do you envision this ship line been played? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tech tree features: Pros: Excellent concealment for a battleship Incredibly quick rudder shift for a battleship Has access to Specialized Repair Teams, can restore large amounts of hitpoints per charge Decent mid-range AA suite, along with short-range AA Powerful guns with outstanding accuracy. Damage Control Party takes 90 seconds to cool down — like cruisers — much faster than 120 seconds on most other battleships. Secondaries have much higher accuracy and shorter reload time in comparison to her counterparts. Ability to use Hydroacoustic Search and Main Battery Reload Booster. Uses British battleship HE shells and standart AP shells Cons: Large and exposed citadel block which rises well above the waterline Weak armor scheme, especially against HE spam.

This is my personal proposal and not the fact that ships will ever appear in the game or my concept will be taken into attention! Thank you for your attention! The idea sounds nice , except for the Uses British battleship HE shells part ... we dont need more HE spammer BBs. If we really want to add them some Unique shell combination, go with Short Fuse RN AP with improved pen angles (like Mino, but with much larger caliber) but reduced alpha like 9800-10500 ish range on high tiers and Standard AP with standard alhpa in the 12000 ish range but improved not so slow shell speed.. The proposed armor layout , and the range and shell speed suggest that the proposed ships would be a high skill BB line anyways, so might aswell go with a high skill AP loadout with flexibility between the 2 AP shell type. This would also add some dedicated playstyle to the ship, the short fuse AP, good camo, and MBRB would make it a dedicated Cruiser hunter, while the standard AP let you play like a typical RN BB with AP. If you add Incredibly quick rudder shift for a battleship , there is no need to add Hydro on top ... torp DDs suposed to counter BBs, so let them do with this one too. Pick 1 out of the 2, personally i would prefer the swift rudder, and maybe add a short duration speed boost starting from T8 instead of the hydro, that would synergize very well with the Reload Boost. Damage Control Party takes 90 seconds to cool down — like cruisers — much faster than 120 seconds on most other battleships. This sounds again a bit of a overkill with the Super Heal in place already, those should cover for a hell of a lot fire dmg. Secondaries have much higher accuracy and shorter reload time in comparison to her counterparts. What would be the caliber and the range for those ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
