  • UK BB Ranges(Outdated Since BB34 Patch)

ok, since I see too many ppl asking about the ranges of guns and tarrifs info is
outdated and not too accurate I will post my results here.
This is ONLY to compare the range of the UK guns I don't even provide you with an
absolute distance as I do not want this to become a flaming post about nation's
advantages, disadvantages and so on...
I tested every gun with 10 full salvos from my Lion's three guns at max angle,
shooting north, took 1 picture each and let my computer calculate a average
distance.

(And yes - contrary to the common misbelief, the average range is, what counts.
Higher gunners with less spread DO NOT shoot further then low level gunners. In fact, some
stray shells from crappy gunners will fall further ahead then they do if shot by a
blocking gunner - and.. my gunners block all guns anyways ;-)



update :
old gun ranges thrown out since nothing changed from the PBB patch to this one - except
the lvl120 guns.

nope, the 110s do not have more range then the 100s at all... just a tad more power and a
longer reload.
Strangely enough it often seemed to me that the 110s fell a mm shorter even. In a testing
environment it appears to be the same though.

Thanks anonymous_ makes more sense now.
I did actually know about the things you explained however I had interpreted the
image in an incorrect way - your info helped me out a bit :-)

Okay, that statement probably means you've never been in a BB or probably any
ship with incredibly long range...imagine the beginning of the game, when everyone
is facing towards the middle (usually). The all the guns are pointed north,
prependicular to the ship and the guns are fired at max angle, which for BB guns is
max range. The lines are the average where the shells land, eg the max range of
the guns. So if you look at the picture, you will see that the level 83 RP12sL
outrange the level 66 RP12L by a scant millimeter, but the RP12sL is outranged by
the level 100 18" mkII by about 2 centimeters.

Could you explain exactly how to read the range values of this chart?

This is probably just me but I can't really make sense of it... seems difficult to get
any useful info out of it so I've probably missed a point somewhere.
