I know that KM have a long range gun but when i play GB i see that some H39 or H44 being hit by the other nations.
If they have long range then why they were hit by enemy for example h44 were hit by MN when h44 shoot it misses not because
they dodge. By how long is the range of the guns that from other nations?

IT''s a new thing were you come in range of the enemy in order to fire if nessessary, also KM ships have longer range but that doesn't mean that no other nation can hit them.

Are you going in a straight line in your H44? Is the other ship sling-shotting?

Yeah, approach angle has everything to do with it. Check out the tips and tactics section for tricks to pull with guns that fire at angle 40-45. The H44 guns are only angle 37, so the effect is not quite as pronounced, but other nations are pulling these tricks against you.

yes, in THEORY KM can never get hit, but do you realise how overpowered this would be? that's why the range advantage, although there, is very, very small. It's perfectly possible to beat a KM ship by timing a good rush, but a veteran KM player will be able to stay just out of range most of the time.

That's why KM is so hard to play. You have an advantage that can win you the game, you can put yourself in a position where you can hit them and they can't hit you, but you need to work very, VERY hard to keep it. You let your attention slip one second and oops... looks like you got hit!

there might also be the north/south distance range bonus at work too

+1 OMG laughs with coffee in hand spilling it all over the keyboard.

Ya H44 has range but not as great as most think. Things dependent on slinging, push/pull tactics, north/south advantage, etc, list goes on but you get the idea. Hope that helps.
