Just wanted to mention that I've found the SD2 to be a surprisingly good 'anti-ship' weapon for the Svetlana(CL) in blitz; seeming to out-range, for whatever reason, both the 6-inch doubles and 8-inch single.  What's more, it's spread isn't "terrible" and its relatively high-angle allows it to do impressive damage for a mere 5.1-inch projectile.  The much higher rate-of-fire doesn't hurt either.  I had originally outfitted my Svetlana with exclusively SD2 in R-slots thinking that it would be an AA vessel.  The six SD2, combined with six quad-tube torpedo launchers, however, have made it possible to keep pace with my Leningrad kills; sinking four or five ships per battle being nothing unusual.

Not just for the Svetlana either, if you AW the BB1 and only use the SD-2's on T-slots, most anything save PCA's become food. They are suprisingly powerful and can be quite accurate at range for the low level that the gunners have to be in for blitz

The SD-2 are overpowered and supposedly should get fixed sometime. But having said that, they're probably the best guns for most of the ships that can use them (i.e. Tashkent, Bogatyr, Pallada T slots and Svetlana).

 

People who use BB1s in blitz, especially AW BB1s, are doing it because they can't win in smaller ships. Don't be those people.

you can sink most blitz bb's with a good ca crew, playing BB with slow reloads is a dangerous thing in a sandbox.

for SN it didn't make a real difference to me weather i used torpedoes or not, attack came out similar for most battles, since you have a good spread and fire rate enemy's up close get a hard beating from those guns.

also noticable is the large amount of r slots on the rear gun, if i recal right they all fire on both sides.

The svetlana is one of the best CL's that I have played,and yes all rear R slots fire both directions.

With the SD2 gun mount,excellent fire power. And I have used this same gun on my PCA in the T slots,wow,awsome !!!

The only down side to this gun,is its weight.
