Timing is essential for brawling, that's correct. Start to early,and you're going to be ripped apart by everyone and their mom's focus fire. Start too late,and theres not much left over, since everyone is behind an island,or fleeing. Somewhere in between, there's a sweet spot,when Enemy DD s entering caps, and Enemy team tries to push.. Sometimes the "psychological effect"of a full seccondary built German Bb,is enough to make em overthink their decision 😂

I always had a bone to pick with how the British battleships were portrayed in the game. The whole Royal Navy doctrine was to have heavier armour to get in close to the enemy, sacrificing speed (while in game they get smashed for showing even a little bit of ankle). That's why they are generally slower than other contemporary ships like the Richelieu, Littorio, Iowa, etc. Their AP in real life was actually really good compared to the pathetic shells we see in game (in relation to pen).

As a German BB main I notice too many other BBs sitting behind islands doing nothing. Don't understand the mindset of parking behind a mountain where you can't shoot anything your DD spots. Really frustrating when there are multiple ships parked behind the island for AA support but still not helping. Best way to use islands is just to break LOS right after firing and circling back over and over. Not trying to park on the beach.

It depends, if you have a solid team you can start off right behind your DD and get up in the action. Many players still hate to have secondaries raining on them and run and hide, so as long as you have support you can push early. No support and get focused on, you're dead. I like the main line German BBs for this reason, they're more tanky and if you push a bit to soon you can survive a bit longer with hope support follows your sacrifice.

Battleships peak at tier 8. Once you hit 9 and 10 theres so many auto loading smoke and hill hiders that your just an xp and damage pinata feeding everyone else. Hence why theres such a passive long range meta, approaching anywhere near the halfway line at top tier just gets you perma spotted and burned/torped down and you cant do anything about it.

Great overall Battleship review! My personal favorites: USN Primary BB line (typical armored, decent speed, good guns), IJN Primary BB line (Solid speed, ok armor, longer range play style, kiting ships), RN Secondary Line (torps and guns, weaker armor, fast, medium range), German Secondary Line (brawl, fast ships, weaker armor, and torps)

I finished grinding the British lines a little while ago, and the one thing that I kept thinking was that the secondary line was actually better overall than the main line. Regarding the torps, once in a while you get something with them, but since you have to be pretty much broadside in some tiers or only have one in the upper, I often felt like it fell into the "why did you bother?" category. I don't know about the upper tiers of IJN ships (I haven't ground that far up), but at least through tier 7, they're my least favorite line.

@@Norbrookc With IJN main line, until tier 9-10, you want to always be moving, so you may miss more shots. You want to kite tier 7 and lower ships, try to get the rear turrets involved even at the expense of the front turrets. Sneak in those broadsides off and then cut the rudder over hard; while at 15+ km away from the main battle. Yes you tend to miss a bit more, but the guns are more long range and quicker to fire to cover up the dispersion issues.

First thing you have to learn as a new player playing BB's is that your armour and angle means squat in this game. Everyone just fires and spams HE in this game and HE completely bypasses any armour regardless of thickness or angle. Everyone just spams it for 20 minutes straight, even bb's, usually from inside smoke or behind an island and starts endless fires. He spam, torp spam, homing torp spam or shotgun torp spam from invisible subs and of cause the unending waves of planes from cv's that pump them out like factories which you can do absolutely nothing against. Good luck new players.

I'm up to the vladivostok and I kinda agree with survivability- however dispersion has been horrendous right down the entire line for me. Its supposed to be better at short range, but even at 8-10 km at slow or stationary targets most shells miss. Ive tried a main battery build and a secondary build but the dispersion is so bad to begin with the small gains arent worth it. Were you just referencing the Kremlin? because i'm not seeing it.

The Vermont is not as forgiving as a GK. Many times been hit for 50k on my slow ass Vermont never in my life has Gk been hit that hard and it much harder to play. You can’t just in in secondary range and do good damage. You need to be aware of the map and just like the GK soon as you fire you are the target. Unlike the GK though the Vermont can’t fight back as fast and discourage the advance. Also for some reason the Vermont shells love to shatter in places where my GK can pen.

So Brawling is really easy. If a match takes around 30mins than you go brawling around 10min mark. Snipe away and cry about it. Sniping ships i would use. Is Yamato and Montana. They are exellent for that. Yamato is a bit meh in that regard... Yamato does best being in middle and making things go away. However that does mean you die very very quickly and things usially stays alive. So she is best used with a few brawlers for supporting fire when those brawlings ships are charging! Montana yeah that is a nasty ship however the kaliber of its guns does mean you have to be very good at shooting at stuff. Especially at loong ranges! Now a middle battle ship like Mid range... those are just being killed really quickly i am very sorry. But you do not whant a kremlin these days. TO BIG CAN BEE SEEN FROM ORBIT will die horribly. Unless ofc you can use it... Wich means you are a farming target prio nr1 for the enemy cause of the health pool... Brawling ships are nasty in cloose range.. ofc look at the map when playing. To know when to go in is to basickly win the game. Problem is you are going to be alone alot! So best thing you can do is actually support your people with loong range and than mid range and than TOTALLY GO IN AND SCREAM BANZAAAI! or whatever. So this is order. Hang back-go middle-go into their face and make them regret their life and question their life choises. ohh with brawlers use HE at loong range and at mid range shift to ap. At brawling range USE AP!!!

Played several Operations in Bismarck / Scharnhorst constantly wiped out by cruisers and DDs that were laughing in the middle of my splashes while constantly eating my HPs. Made hit for 2000 (and constant miss, overpenetration, ricochet) and played by 3000+. Any DD can charge you, run to 3000m from you and shotgun you with torps while you cannot hit him as every f*** shot just hits water. Turrets turn forever. When shooting even at Tier4 BBs (form Tier7/8 !!!) - ricochet, overpenetration, few HP down. Return salvo regardless the angle ate thousands of my HPs. Again, again and again. Any stupid cruiser can run circles around you and keep spamming you with HEs. Did it so many times. Took Tier6 Dorsetshire to same matchmaking and effortlessly made more damage, just spamming HEs
