  • Basic DD/CL/CA Gun/Engine Setup - Lock Please

Hi.

DC and/or HH and/or AA might be more viable in some environments, but some players still
like the classic NF where you battle ships of your own tier. This is for them. Just a
quick chart that shows my suggested gun setups for the destroyers and cruisers of the
Marine Nationale. I've also included the "proper" engines for each of these ships.

Of note: I still care about range, and this chart reflects that, but there really aren't a
lot of options, so my opinion is that you would be pretty foolish not to put one of my
noted sets on your ship (DC, HH, and AA excepted, of course).



The guns listed for the Emile Bertin increase in range as you increase in level. Assuming
you start by running an at-level crew, you'll work your way up.

The level 47 2x8" and the level 40 3x6.1" had the same max range on the test server.

*POTENTIAL EDIT FORTHCOMING*

Usage of the Jeanne D'Arc guns on the Emile Bertin. I didn't have it in my notes that it
was a viable option but I also didn't make a note of why it wouldn't be. If I get to the
point where I want to check on that I will note it here. Input appreciated.

Requesting lock.

I'll make another one, as suggested, and lop in some late-arriving data and community input.

Range is similar and enough to eliminate any range advantages Rehor.

Is it my wrong instinct that those 3.5" can reach a relatively long range and the speed
of shells are fast ..

If you need to edit it some more, go ahead, but do try to make it a more or less final
version. I'll be on tomorrow to re-sticky it as necessary (morning to early afternoon, and
after 5:00 or so Mountain), but if you want to keep adding to it then just make a
placeholder first post and put the meat in the second post, so you can edit it at will, and
I'll get around to stickying that for you.

Well to be honest, I never tested them against the level 12's because we heard directly
from a GM that the 12's were the "right" guns. The reason I made this chart was to
eliminate the crappy rangeless guns.

What kind of range do they have against the level 12's?

Rehor.. I suggest level 10 5.1" guns for the jaguar.

The level 12 guns are take up all but .5 of the gun space for it, resulting in only 1 bind
of ammo. However, the damage difference between the level 12 and level 10 is insignificant
enough to say that 3 binds of ammo with the level 10 is better off.

"The golden angle for the level 20 3.5" AA guns is 25, I believe."

I've tried the lvl20 AA guns (on live server), and unfortunately it's at best very hard to
tell where they work well with the highly sporadic spread and slow-ish reload. Either
way I have to say that the GA is somewhere around 25, but I haven't been able to find
a more specific angle yet.


But holy cow that range kicks ass.

Instead of editing the main and losing the sticky, for now I'll just say that the Jeanne
D'Arc guns are usable on the Emile Bertin. I can't go deeper than saying that they have
range similar to the level 36 2x5.1". The test server is not set up to allow me to get
results more specific than that generic claim and my spread on Yamato is hardly testworthy.

When I am able, I'll get this sorted a bit better.
