[BLUMR] Battleship_Nagato Beta Tester 183 posts 13,338 battles Report post #6 Posted June 12, 2016 Indy's armour, I feel, is just the right size to prevent citadel overpens but to allow citadel hits by other battleships, so... yeah. That can and will happen. Just don't show your broadside mate~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeTorpilaroToOra Players 9 posts 11,210 battles Report post #10 Posted June 12, 2016 unbelievable, all answers here are all other as helpful or chosen theme. You guys just wait as "all knowing" and the only you can pretty good is to blame someone! "I agree, there is a problem, but it has nothing to do with the Indianapolis or its armour. " so you mean its me, ok we will see. "The odd Indianapolises I shot at in my cruisers and BBs were not any more squishy than other cruisers. Unless they showed their broadside, in which case everything is squishy anyhow. " i accept it generally but this is the reason i come to the Forum cause i feel it more then normal! "Indy's armour, I feel, is just the right size to prevent citadel overpens but to allow citadel hits by other battleships, so... yeah. That can and will happen. Just don't show your broadside mate~ " it will come the time you must turn or are you guys never play broadside your ships?`*a bit confused* one salvo from a BB and it dosent matter from which BB im insta killed "I don't own the Indianapolis. But when I encounter 1 all I have to do is look at it funny and get at least 3 citadels... " hmm you know why... "But but ist a premium ship!! that cant be happening! We paid for it! cure WG har har! Really OP with over 3k battles you shoud have goten used to Basic game mechanics ,-)))))" Spellfire, sarcasm and ironie was never my theme so take your comments for you and please, give your suggestions (if you have some good) to your low Tier newbies you play with them because they easier to kill, so dont talk to a addult man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time your turns. When you see someone shooting at you, don't just wait for the shells to hit. Brake hard and turn to one side, try to dodge the shells.

Time your turns. When you see someone shooting at you, don't just wait for the shells to hit. Brake hard and turn to one side, try to dodge the shells. Yes it's one salvo from any BB to any cruiser showing it's broadside, as long as the RNG gives you citadels. Even BBs can't take that. No need to wonder why you are being laughed at OP.

[HOTEL] darkwingfighter Players 213 posts 7,882 battles Report post #25 Posted June 13, 2016 For all that have not understand my point, regarding the Armor stats and the Gameplay compared with other Cruisers, it is not normal what damage that Ship takes from BBs Shells even if the Shells plunging in the Water, Well, you see, anon, in our world (and in this game) you have to apply some force to stop an object, especially if that object travels at Mach 2 and weights over a ton. When said object hits water, it KEEPS MOVING FORWARD, though it loses speed pretty fast. but it still can pierce armor, and because: 1) your ship has most of it's citadel under water, 2) Under water armor is very thin you can get citadeled by shell that hit water. P.S. Welcome to T7 US cruisers, where your only armor is WASD and RNGesus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
