The KM way may be the cookie cutter "run and gun" method, but that's certainly not the only way, except if you only play BB rooms, which no one does anymore.
"Range is life" works in theory only in a GB2 room. Because of the greater number of distractions in GB/2 such as torp walls, subs, AA and blindness, tactics are far more important to me than range.
I still use 12x15" guns much of the time with H39 and 100+ gunners. If you can get close enough, and you can, they do devistating damage, compared to the 8x16s at max range with a horrid spread.
