Got a few more things I want changed still.

Are we keeping the BB6 at 35? Or are we buffing it to 37?

Both ways, base displacement needs to be increased by a total of ~500 tons to
prevent people going 30 by stripping 1 bind of ammo. I'm suggesting this be done
with gun weight again, with +150 tons to each. If speed needs adjustment, then we
can increase the base speed by 1. Remember, we nerfed the turning force already,
having it go 35 may be a little too much, a turning force buff if it remains at 35 may
be needed.

Has BB6 damage has NOT been buffed to ~58k, it is still hits 53-54k salvos. Needs to
be done ASAP.
BB6 range MAY need another adjustment, as our tests are for actual range, not
effective range (effective range = Gun range - hitbox disadvantage). It right now has
closer to nebby range due to this, as the P24 hitbox is quite a bit fatter than all other
BB6s.

This is amagi range at 45 degree, while the P24's shells land in the middle of the
amagi.

dual 6"/57 B-38 MK-17 Pattern 1938: reload: 4.32 -> 4.16
dual 6"/57 B-38 MK-17 Pattern 1938: maxinum angle: 45 -> 85 (anywhere between
70 and 90 would also work))

trip 6" needs an accuracy bonus on it's LHE, HE, and HHE shells to...+15 (same as
the IJN trip 6"s). If possible, tell SDE not to change the accuracy revision on the AA
shells.

Izmail needs a speed nerf to either 40 or even 39 (currently 42). It cannot have much
more damage, speed, and range than the Gangut. Also, with BB1 guns, it goes 49kn
right now with insane reload. Reload nerf (14" guns) to 16 seconds could also be
used (currently at 15.76).

Gangut guns reload at 13.96 for reference; I don't think this needs changing tbh, as
it has I think 2nd least range of all BB2s). The other thing we can do to the Gangut to
balance Gangut and Izmail, is to buff the spread of the Gangut guns by +1 or +2,
this, with the reload advantage (and once Izmail speed is at 40), should be able to
make it as competitive as the Izmail.

I think the BB3s are fine, though I'm looking at the speeds and damages of the other
BB3s, and I think they may be slightly out of place. Note, if the BB6 is nerfed to 35kn,
and the BB4 is nerfed to 37 with 16"s, then I would not mind the IM getting even a
damage buff (via access to the 45 degree guns), and a speed nerf to 37kn.

I have yet to do playtesting with the Kronstadt, as I think it may be a bit
overpowered if it uses the 40 degree guns. A weight change on the 40 degree guns
and a base displacement change on the IM is a way to avoid that, but unless it's
really needed, I dont think we need to change that.

I have yet to test the stalingrad, so I wont comment on it yet. Though if I remember
correctly, the 45" can use a muzzle velocity change to affect it's range (to exact H39
range, as right now its range is the median between the H39's spread); though I do
not know where else this affects (damage, armor penetration, etc).

BB5's range needs to be changed when ever possible. Trip 16"s with L2 range (or a
few pixels below H44), quads with SY or L2 range. Have not tested the new damage
yet.

That's all for now.

No more requests for now.

We will be testing the entire patch process on the testserver soon, since the patch file
is huge (>200 MB).

For now change requests will not be possible.
