  • Boost IJN 6.1" N L D AA shell damage.

I always liked using IJN 6.1" A guns on Mogami AA. I like the amazing stopping power
against aircraft (the A version deal around 120 dmg per shell) BUT the nice range and
power come at a cost of 0 anti surface capability. Of course there are the T slots to save
me and HH right? Well... HH are KINDA expensive... i could of course mount 7.9" singles in
the T slots but it looks stupid and 2 shells per salvo are kinda meh when it somes to
killing ships.

So what? lets use The N L or D 6.1" guns for a change... and its a tragedy.
Sure the spread is way better but everything else goes down.

Range? Even L has less range than than A.
Reload? Even D has longer reload compared to A.
Damage? 58 compared to 120...

Less range
Longer reload
WAY less damage (1 dmg more compared to the spammy IJN 3" A)

On top of that N L & D are 4 times heavier compared to A (and take more space but thats
not a big deal)

So how about boosting the NLD damage by say... 20 points (79 dmg per shell).
The 6.1" are already gimped AA wise due to the long reload so why they are they gimped
even further by the ridiculously low damage.

PS - 7.9" D guns with Heavy HE shells fired at max angle also mark the max range of 6.1" A
guns (when fired at 28 deg).

PS2 - Please let AA ships into CV rooms (for great justice).

That's what AA guns are for. You get longer range and less reload than the normal guns
but you can't attack surface ships.

NLD = Against ships
A = Against planes

That's why there is the difference.


PS2 Just a stupid idea. Why even mention it?
