Nice Shot! on the Sodak!!!!

Got some Damage Tests,a fleetmate was nice enough to serve as ze guinea
pig......er,helper ^^

Heres a Torp Run on a SoDak with 6 T1 TB's (T1 Torps do around 6.3K damage
each,on paper anyhow):



Of course we all know NOONE goes WITHOUT bulge+belt.......and of course low lvl
non-BVE TB's will die A LOT,i'll get some screens of the TB's attacking a Bulged
up+Belted up BB later on if you want.

Now heres some DB Screenies ^^



Note how the MN T1 Bombs are slightly better than the KM T2 Bombs ^_^

And don't forget the fact that French Fighters are even SLOWER than UK.....

Can someone post harbour pic of Bearn?
I wanna see how many planes of each can be held.

Yeah its pretty deplorable. There are gonna be a lot of french Amelia airhearts making one
way trips lol.

Wow, even the T3 have limited fuel? This is going to take some getting used to.
Coming from an Essex with lots of planes and fuel to burn...

Limited number of planes, with local range? On the bright side, perhaps "scoutless"
BBs won't be screaming at the French CVs to scout. That is, if they are aware of the
fuel limitations...

Finally the leeching has been completed!



The Diximude:

Speed with max displacement: 29/31,though unless you run a LOT of armor,you'll
almost always do at last 30/32.
Gun Setup of Choice 1: None (Use the 2 Slots on ship for supports/lvling pilots you'll
need later)
Gun Setup of Choice 2: Lvl 18 3.5" 50 Cal model 1926 (4 Binds of Ammo)
Gun Setup of Choice 3: Hedgehogs (4 Binds for Free HH)
Armor Setup of Choice: 0.4 Belt,you can fit a fair amount of bulge on (130+) but i
prefer the extra speed,can do 32+ knots.
Plane Setup of Choice: 12 Local Fighters and the rest scouts (For at-lvl ship)

Any constructive criticism welcome,now i just gotta lvl up my bombers......

After looking over the stats again i was shocked at the fact that the T3 fts only have 99
fuel capacity!?!?!. That is a good 25 less than UK or KM's T1's. I understand that for
balance somethings must be different but come on. and the T2's have 5 less fuel capacity
than the T1's! This needs to get fixed so that the T3's at least have the same fuel as
maybe any other nation's T2's and maybe the T2's on par fuel wise with other nations T1's.

Okay couple quick things I noticed with mine,

the T1 FPs have 108 attack and about 45 seconds fuel, the TBs(I did not bother with
DBs as of yet because I had to fight in blitzs on nelson) Are insanely stupid for auto,
you have to manual and use 2 groups.

But here is the upside for the TBs someone please check on the DBs

you can load and launch 2 FULL Flights of 6 Tbs, then attack a target halfway across
map and still have fuel to get home!

I got accused of exploiting because the bbs could not fathom how I was launching
12 TBs per wave.

Interesting to hear. I am a bit disappointed to learn of the fuel issue, but I still look
forward to getting the Dixmude and the Bearn someday. The lack of speed also is
sort of a let-down.
