Fairimear	I really am feeling the IM needs a range nerf or a turning force nerf. atm its way to nimble and way to effective for a bb3. in comparison to the NC or stras. I have seen IM this week sink 2/3 bb5 well being fired on by all of them. As soon as its in range it is to hard to hit and can 1 shot with relatively low level crews.

ljsevern	You can't get any worse submergence than the H44. Its weaknesses are DP, Submergences, Gun placement and range.

Audessy	Is it getting a submergence nerf at the time of the patch? What will be it's other weaknesses? Most bb5's have at least two. How soft will it be after the submergence change? Worse or better than the h44?

MrClueLess	SN BB6 vs MN BB6 should be pretty hilarious.

ljsevern	Its getting a submergence nerf, and the Montana still has a better spread. Again, turn up to battle tests, that is the main problem we are having currently. And the MN BB6 doing 42 knots is fine.

KinLuu	It is brown. And french.

Audessy	"BB5 Alsace:- 4x 18.89"/45 cal Model 1936 DP Increased from 28550 -> 30500 R Space Increased from 500 -> 510 Gun level reduced from 105 -> 100 Shells per bind increased from 30 -> 40.

I feel bad for monty drivers. Maybe I'm being blind, but where's the Alsace's disadvantage?

Kilaenots	Is there a 2 gun speed nerf for the Alsace? Cause that is a tough set up to fight anyway but with +1 acc it will be even harder. Personally I thought the Alsace was OP and everything in that list is buffing it!

mailman	It is allways 'good' to see those comments after a lot of work has already been done. I mean, it is easy to claim somethingis not right from here, but I haven't seen a single comment when this was extensively discussed on the testserver forums... As for the reasoning: The MN BB6 is the one with the lowest range of all, besides that it will get a slight damage nerf. That combined with the huge target on the back we feel this should be the right choice. As for the comments that it should be slower than the lower tier.... that doesn't go for several other BB6 already also. MM

darkWolfCZ	oh my god...one time I have to agree with Whitworth making BB6 going 42 knots is retarded, unless it has AT LEAST less range than all BB5s
