  • I'm loving the 11"L triples.

I just started using them on my Gniesenau 1943, and I'm doing much more damage
than the Bissy dual 15"Ls. Probably for two reasons, my range is a hair more, so all
other BB3s I can outrange and my spread is much better. My gunners are only level
90 (stock 11/11 that came with the server), BVE with 150+ vets, but my spread with
the Bissy guns is still bad. It isn't very consistant with the 11Ls either, but much
better. and the reload rate is almost the same.

I guess I'm saying what every veteran player already knows. You don't need bigger
guns to do more damage. This holds true for almost all ships. My Prinz Eugen can
deal so much more damage with tripple 5.9" at higher levels than any other gun
above them. They can't outrange the 8", but oh the damage they do.

Bottom line, bigger isn't always better. Just ask any honest woman about that.

I've read somewhere that you can put 11" triples on the AD, but now that i've got mine it
only looks like it can mount first set 11" (Dland guns) on the inner slot...so wondering
if its still possible to use gnei 11" on the pbb? Or did it get nerfed?

You have way more patience than me to use the 11s. Maybe in a BB room that
doesn't have bb4+ in it they are useful. In GB1/2 they are useless in my experience
with the big boys.

I did my BSM to H39 grind with the trip 11's. Personally I like them, but the 14.96 are
better.

Even 15" cant do hard hit on BB456 I think 11" is just a joke, ppl wont afraid 11"
and will rush you.
The only case reload faster help is you cant aim.

At one point I may have agreed with you. However getting used to 30 angle guns
prepares you better for H39's guns and keeps you tuned for Andrea Doria.

The hitting power is far less with 11's and the reload time is longer. Sure, you may
survive more often but you also never sink anything.

IIRC, Bismarck with 11 inch trips loaded only does about 28k on a perfect salvo. With
the 15's you can get nearly 40.

So to sum it up, basically you're succeeding more because most ships out-range you
and you've compensated for it. But in reality, with proper technique, repair speed, and
OH time you can be far more successful. Dead targets don't shoot back. Dead targets
don't pick you off while you run away to rep.
