SN line is Slow, due in part to the added armor buff the SN line has... if you have 4 Engy's you're doing great... the SN line is Small and Slow, but have decent armor and hitting power. I like the Kronshtadt better than the IM

ty for the info, i just got it and am liking it so far.

i do have 4 engys, so im glad i got that covered. The 45 degree guns are taking some getting used to after using the 30 degree 14s on the izmail. The spread is awesome, my gunners are ebve and at 82 they pretty much block with the 12s. Does anybody know how the at lvl spread is with the stalingrad? Both the 12s and 16s, and on a side note which is better and why.

Also i heard the kronshtadt was supposed to get a 1 knt base speed buff?

I have EBVE Acc Gunners Level 92 so I know that the spread won't block but should be ok, not really sure about the guns, I know some people say the 12's cause you can shoot a bit tighter, and faster, but the 16's hit harder... Suppose its about preference... I'll be going with the 16's most likely

There's a ton of "supposed" things with SN. BB wise, not too much of it's left to my original plans though due to how balancing worked out.

Hi..

Just been playing the Kronshtadt for a few levels with a good crew on board. The ship itself is ok and i have no issues with. It has good size AAW gun slots for the D2's which are very useful(32%) and 11 sailor slots, also useful. My 1 and only concern with the kronshtadt is the main guns, the spread on both 12" and 14" and fairly good, but the range is just aweful and is what kills this ship off. I do not joke when i say i am having problems ranging other heavy cruisers let alone attempting to fight another bb of any class. I found this very dissapointing and ended up buying the SN sevastopol(lvl 61), which is far better and more compareable to other ships of its level.

Hope that helps some.
pls NF give this ship more range so we can use it more :)

Hi..

I have tested them all, they all have the same range pretty much, i used the lvl 79 12" trips in the end because it seemed to have half to 1 click longer range. any of them gunz were not comparable in my opinion to any same level bb. i'm sure the king george etc shoots further.

hi all..

Angus. yes and yes to your questions.

ok, just to be clear, the other bb3 we are comparing the kron against are:-

KM-
O Pro 2
Bismark

IJN-
Nagato

US-
South dekota
unsure other BB line off hand

UK-
King George
Nelson

MN-
Sorry i have not used this line yet so no idea what ships are bb3 MN, but i hear no complains about them as such.

Hope i not missed any.

In my opinion, for all the BB3's i know and have used, the kronstadt has the shortest range, in my opinion. Have i had all these ships in the same room for testing?, no i have not, but would be very interested to. Anyone fancy a test shout me in-game pls. I will assume the UK 14" quads are the shortest range guns from the ships above?.

Also in my opinion, what the kronstadt needs is a set of 14" or 12" duals with a little more muzzle velosity than the other 14"-12" trips available, even if the spread is a little worst,(at level and improving). Similar to the UK bb3 line were they have the dual 12"'s. I think that would be enough for people to get on ok with the kronstadt.

can we hope for 16 inch duals maybe? :D
