Note: Premium Tier VIII Massachusetts & Alabama, both South Dakota-class, get to have the 27kts of North Carolina at Tier VIII but have the turn capability of the lower tier USN BBs. Maneuverability: Below Tier VIII, very good rudder shifts and turning circle radius, good BBs to actually torpedo beat with. 27kts is good but it's not the standard of 30kts that German BBs set. Tier VIII is 27kts, Tier IX is 33kts, X is 30kts. Speed: Below Tier VIII, notoriously slow at around 21kts, if even that. Some general points about the USN BB Line. Excellent torpedo protection and maneuverability.Ĭolorado is more agony, but if mastered has guns that hit like a truck, and an excellent heal ability. New Mexico is another shotgun, but has better groupings than Wyoming, (fewer turrets, same amount of guns.) Decent secondaries, potentiality good AA, but still not as good as most of the other T6 BBS. New York/Texas can be agony, but are still workable, (especially if you go back to them after a lot of higher tier battleship experience.) Wyoming is the first shotgun, (12 guns,) which can make up for bad aim, but it’s better to have good aim. South Carolina can be a surprisingly good brawler, but not as good as Nassau. Generally better to maneuver and angle well and fight at medium ranges, at least until mid/late game.ĪP generally like most everyone else, but it’s good to develope a sense of when it’s time to switch to HE. Map awareness and thinking ahead are a must. Did I mention they were slow? At least until North Carolina. Is there a general strategy that the US ships have? (like for germans its generally, hide behind islands hoping to not get torpedoed and bum rush into secondary range) Or are they too varied to have a general game plan for them? Also how is the line overall? Bad parts, good parts, etc? I have seen a lot of discussions around for info on specific ships, but I was wondering if anyone had a decent overview of how the US battleships worked? I just came from T5 German Battleships (god id rather stick my hand in a blender than play that trash again), and I have gotten a lot of habits that are supposedly bad for US ships.
