What about bb1 and bb2? They usually don't even get in range to score some damage, not to mention the fail spread those low level bbs usually have.
Of course if you try to play the line with a BB1-2 you get murdered. A BB1 aim for the lower level ships (CA and under) and makes sure its not on the battleline. You can try yourself against higher level ships by keeping close to an higher level friend, or if you are experienced, go in ninja mode. I've soloed many BB23 that way, and some idiot BB45, with at level BB1s.
BB2 with a good player driving it can get impressive attack also, since many have considerable firepower, making BB5 a much more valid target.
There is also a more conservative support role you can play with any lower level BBs, especially if you are using AA.
Most BB1 that I see dying with 0 attack die in a situation I'd have avoided even with a BB6 ( in range of multiple BB34, in plain daylight visual). Thats a player fail, not a ship one.
