It's  ironic that in the states where they demand so much diversity.  in casting all shows that have Italians they still cast Brits for the parts unless mafia related aka general historical type shows. Tried to watch a history channel show...Brits. I was just reading about a new movies that cast a Brit for an Italian the other day.

Because 15ms exceed the time the shell need to pass a DD hull.

However, angled DD and DD deck can still trigger pen threshold of the shell.

So RN BB's come tuesday, the kamikaze skippers are going to love it

well the wiered super small dispersion with ****sigma could be either really good or really bad....

 

[Darth_Glorious]

If you have tiny dispersion, sigma doesn't influence must because the shell spawns only  in that tiny circle

Where are you from Haleos?

 

Doesn't matter. I am just aware of dear Greeks' obsession with calling that country FYROM and not Macedonia. Comes funny to me, I hope I did not offend.

Hitting won't be the problem when aiming for the center of the ship (not the waterline) but the results will vary heavily I guess

Italians make fast ships with good handling 
but terrible guns

Wonder if they will have the version with the 'Q' turret as stock? (Q = middle of hull).

I doubt that, if 15 ms allows it to pass through the hull, then the regular 30 ms would allow it to pass even further through the hull, in which case why advertise it as "not working on DD".

I was wondering if the shells had an unusually high penetration threshold that prevented them from arming under all but the most extreme circumstances.

If the time that the shell traverse  the hull for DD is only 10ms, and you set it as 15 ms, you will get overpen. It is still overpen if you set it to 30 ms...That's what they mean.

Duca d'Aosta... Giulio Cesare...

Interesting how the two first Italian ships released have served for the USSR too...

But in that case the statement:

 

"..... fewer over-penetrations when firing at poorly-armoured broad targets, but be aware, this doesn’t apply to destroyers ..."

 

is a complete nonsense because the AP is always more effective against DD than regular AP.

 

 

I suppose if by broad targets they mean targets showing full broadside then yes you'll still get OP against them, but any angle at all means they're far more likely to take a penetration.

 

So what the statement implies is that the AP is less effective against DD but on careful inspection it's actually far more effective.

A bit late to the party (because I haven't really been paying attention to the info thread lately), but I would like to point out that this is a slight translation error. Should be more along the lines of this:

(He's referring to the alpha stage of the game, in which WoWs was centered primarily on long range combat. There is a bit of gameplay of it in the dev diaries videos if I remember correctly)
