BB 1 and 2 gun range should be outstanding!
and the 13.4" shell damage is freaking good!

(I don't have MN, but fight alot :/)

bb1-2 (and remodel) is a very nice bb coz of strong fire power and small ship size,
good speed

bb3 is also ok as the same advantages of bb1-2

however in bb4, its obvious on the weak side

its size is not small anymore, but the fire power and range cannot reach the
requirments of a bb4

14.96inch gun with 1150 ammo attack (if i dont make a mistake, it should be such
weak damage). i had tried to give 3 full shots on a full dp and sd h44, but i still
cannot get him. if i use my iowa, i can kill him by 2 full shots

finally in bb5, its a great ship, everythings are good except the amount of ammo

Is it the worst BB4 in your opinion? I cant think of any that are worse?

You think so Denara? I think saddle just sucks in the Richelieu, I find it a VERY
competitive ship.

Learn to AA.

SaddleRocker covered it.

fighters are the worst, db's and tb's are great, but again fighters are the worst

Thank you for all the imput. I have noticed the French BB's being more compact...but did
not know about the other points mentioned here :P They seem quiet well balanced on paper.
and I have came up against these new fearsome BB1's...I hate trying to hit those tiny
little things.

pros: great AA,, DBs,,smal hitbox and i think they have now the best bb1 in all nf,,
Bretagne and Courbet..


cons:bb3 and 4 = small range :s
bb4-5 short range (alsace guns 105= iowa range i think)

I think the BB3-4 are terrible, but BB 1-2's are great.
Also it is ok to put up with a bad BB3, but the BB4 is a long grind it its really bad imo.

Good speed and AA
Great damage on BB1,2,5
Tiny Hitboxes

Range on BB 4-5 seems to be the shortest of all nations

storm just about said it all but also id like to say that unless you have really good
gunners (which i dont) spread with the first 3 BBs (3rd BB being paris) are not going to
be too good
