Someone already said the level but overall the B65 is a fun ship, it may not have the damage output of say the fuso or ise but as a trainer for running the yamato it is the perfect ship to do so.  

also the Yamato is not that OP considering it is the only bb4 with 18" guns so it has the correct amount of firepower.  Besides it is a bit squishy but in capable hands leathal to anything in it's path. 

My Records:

Dunkerque: 231,462

Andrea Doria : 295,298

Kongo: 247,056

Fuso: 258,00*

B65: 138,675

If you want a fast AA ship, the B65 is for you. I believe you can get it up to 46 Knots outside of World at War.

(Fuso record can not be proven)*

All records are with untuned ship.

45 knots actually, thats with belt n bulge so long as you have good based engi's, since IJN has poor support sailors overall.

If you do it right, you can get it up to 29/49 with minimum bulge and belt but no AA.

Correct OH speeds of the B65 should be 47 with AA, 49 without with a level 100ish crew.



I believe it is 45/46 depending on final 120 crew weight (How you class your AA gunners) with AA, or 47 without @ 120. 


I'll have to double check...
