  • What does a nebraska have that a monty doesn't?

I have been looking at the stats of the nebraska and the montana and I can't really tell that the Nebraska is that much better. It has one less turret and smaller turret hard points. Same engine space as the Iowa.

Nebby is the ultimately overpowered, while Monty is a joke compared to it.

18" over 16"
Range: (toward top of range in tier compared to monty being tied for worst)
Lower Angels: 40 compared to 45
Faster Turning: (BB6s have ridiculous turn speeds)
T slots: 14 T slots compared to 10. Allowing setups like 28x 3" 70s (ND), 28x 5" 38 Mark 38(NDA), 28x 5" 54 Cal Mark 16 (NDA), 28x 6" 47 Cal DP (NDA)
14 Total sailors over 13.
Adequate plane space for 6x T5 Scouts over Montana's Max of 3x T5 scouts.
Better spread over Montana
Longer OH time due to Iowa Engine (233k BHP over 189k BHP)
BB6 over BB5
Its quite honestly if not the best of the BB6s for both Offense and Defense.
Higher Displacement, More extra space.
Can fit 0.2",0.2",90,2 armor load out maintaining speed cap over Montana 0.2", 0.2", 0, 2.
With 6 Engines and 4 Reps, it can Repair Cap. 6/3 on Montana cannot.
More damage/shell. Doesn't need Montana salvos, just need well placed part salvos to do critical damage.
Easier to play than Montana. (Too easy)
Narrower Hitbox + turn speed, it can if your paying attention dodge ports that appear at least 4" away.
Easier to get into range, salvo and turn out of range.
Only outranged by a couple pixels over P24 and Kaiser compared to 1/4" to H44 without hitting like a pansy or having extremely long hang-time.


That being said, Montana does have the strong salvo of all the ships in the game. Only the Amagi and the IJN Subs come even close to the Montana. Being able to effectively one shot rushing ships with well placed salvos, the Montana can hold off 5+ BBs while running. The Nebby can hold the line and keep ships from ever getting into range.

Personally I like Montana > Nebby, why? It takes more skill to drive and unless your warming up for an HA, a BB6 in a GB is depressing since you can do the same with the BB5s. You can even overpower and own a BB6 with a BB5 quite easily.

BB6 have lower turret space than BB5 but that doesnt mean you their guns are smaller.

You cannot change the guns on a BB6 and no other BB can mount BB6 guns.

See I didn't know what guns the nebraska had, just seen it had smaller gun spaces for the main guns. Also trainworld shows them having the same amount of aircraft space. Also the montana has terrible range? that sounds a little depressing. I am only at an iowa at the moment but was looking forward to a monty in 7 more levels.

monty has more range than iowa of course, but compared to other bb5s, it has the least range - but of course, we make it up in firepower.

nebby has a lot more aircraft space than monty. I havent checked trainworld in a while but last time i checked they didnt really update the usn shiptree.

Of all the nations: USN is the most balanced.... Only gets Good Range @ BB6.... Medioce AA balances with Great AAW. Crap torps balanced with Large number of total T slots on SS5, Low range matched with Firepower and BB6 is just a well rounded ship, doesn't excel in any place but its pretty good in all aspects.

Tied lowest Range BB3s: Sodak: P.O.W. with Ns.
Fattest BB1: Alaska/Guam
Vanguard's 8x 15" shells hit harder than the current Iowa Shells.

Unless you put 24'' or more deck on your QV , nebby max angle cannot be bounced .
