[TTTX] Tyrendian89 [TTTX] Players 4,608 posts 8,139 battles Report post #4 Posted March 9, 2017 neither of the two looks overly impressive to me... sure, Le Grande Baguette gets 240mm guns, but 17s reload? And the mediocre muzzle velocity (and lack of Moskva-level punch that stems from that) doesnt make the AP look all that good either... 3 torps either side arent going to be killing much, although the arcs and 9km range are nice. And that HE on the Duca... 7% base fire chance, lol... although the AP might be pretty good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[WG] Killerbin34 WG Staff 260 posts 32,003 battles Report post #6 Posted March 9, 2017 My word the Grand Baguette (I guess thats what its just going to be called now) Those Guns will certainly hurt even if the velocity if more Des Moine like DDs and other ships will suffer because with only 3 tubes I bet many people willl forget they have them unlike the British and Japanese cruisers. Plus a 35knt top speed and Engine boost shes going to be one fast Grand Baguette. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aschwell Players 353 posts 9,681 battles Report post #8 Posted March 9, 2017 (Henry IV) Well the HE chance to set fires 20% is quite impressive. I for sure will be grinding. Question later is though, spec for ROF or range on the guns hmm. Duca seems to be sometihng in between a russian CA guns and a HMS one with the concealment. Though lacks some range.

AP is about average, here's a 10km pen comparison. Leander = 118mm Duka = 122mm Budyonny = 138mm Plus a 35knt top speed and Engine boost shes going to be one fast Grand Baguette.

VC381 Players 2,928 posts 6,549 battles Report post #12 Posted March 9, 2017 So the Aosta does get the 1,000m/s AP, that has the potential to be great fun but 14km range puts a downer on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[WG] Killerbin34 WG Staff 260 posts 32,003 battles Report post #13 Posted March 9, 2017 If those penetration figures turn out to be accurate all of the Tier 10 battleships will be immune from Le Grande's citadels at the same range where Moskva and Des Moines can penetrate despite having the biggest guns.

But let´s see how it´s to play when it get´s out. mh... around Hindenburg levels, which isnt great but workable. what could make this ship really good potentially would be enough bow armour to not get lolpenned (if, say, the 45mm the leak shows for citadel protection extends all the way to the bow) - the deck armour does seem to be there already, at least in some places...

Yeah let´s hope it´s tanky at least so you can be a bit offensive and get to use torps etc. But that gun reload though, it´s going to be harder to finish off DD´s trying to torp you. Hope it get´s radar in that case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope it get´s radar in that case. as if this game needed more radar... The reload is indeed piss poor for a T10 cruiser, for no good reason that I can see when you compare the actual guns with Moskva's... I'd take Stalinium Railguns any day I think (at least just judging by these stats as we see them now ofc, ingame may somehow be different, and/or the ship might receive some changes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TTTX] Tyrendian89 [TTTX] Players 4,608 posts 8,139 battles Report post #22 Posted March 9, 2017 wait a second - look at the secondaries of Le Grande Baguette. 15rpm with 1800 alpha and 9% base fire chance on 127mm guns? Sure, they're labelled as postwar guns, but if those are anything like what the high tier french DDs will be getting (like Kurfürst secondaries foreshadowed Z46 and Z52 guns for example) then those might potentially be plenty scary... No guarantee of that of course, but hey it might happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And i was hoping that Grozovoi was just an accident but seems like this is new meta "put averge tier 8 ship in tier 10 lets see how it is doing" Bad DPM ? Worse cruisers ingame ? Okay, so let's stop french bashing stupidly and start being a little less biased, okay ? It has 17.15s reload. With the upgrade, you get 15s. (Because nobody will be stupid enough to take the range when you already have 20km, right ?) 15s ==> 2s longer than Zao. Okay, it is still lower. Then, take a look at the HEs : 22% fire chance, 3400 damage. With 240mm, you get 40mm penetration, which is enough to lolpen most BBs, even the heavily armored ones. With lolfire chance. And 1133 damage per penetration. On the other hands, yeah, the AP lacks penetration. But with their damage and penetration they will be enough to punch big holes on any broadside cruisers. This ship is designed to spam HE, with maybe lower rof, but lolfire chance, and very few shells will not penetrate. If you are sadistic enough to add APHE to the mix, you get 52mm penetration and I think even the best broadside armor can't compare to it... Look at the armor now : 30mm as the lowest, which means it can bowtank a good number of BBs. Only Yamato can penetrate it with the overmatch. As for the maneuverability, it gets the same ruddershift as Moskva, which is indeed quite bad. But it gets 14km base concealment which is A LOT better than the horrible Moskva base concealment. The turning radius is pretty meh, indeed. But that things CAN ACTUALLY BOW-TANK. Add it the concealment, and you can always just wait for it to kick in, do a 180°, and engage the engine boost to get out of there at 39 knots (with Sierra Mike) The torps get a monstrous angle, and they are far from being bad either. The only downside is the number, since there are only 2x3. They are a good addition to the DPM if you ever have to run away or engage at close range, but they clearly can't do as much damage as Minotaur/Hinden/Zao torps. Bad ship ? I really, really don't think so. It's more of a battlecruiser than Moskva actually. It can tanks, it has correct concealment for its size, it has low base DPM but the guns still packs quite the punch, and it's the fastest cruiser ingame. I'd say it is more suited than any other cruiser to fight battleship. And we NEED this kind of cruiser ingame atm. Far more than any new Delete-the-DDs, Lolpen-the-cruisers, eat-planes-for-breakfast cruisers... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
