  • RM DD strategy(ies)?

Perhaps I am just impatient but, after the other nations, I've found the DD-levels in the RM rather frustrating.  It seems that, at like-level, RM destroyers are out-gunned by those of almost any other nation.  What's more, the lack of any true torpedo 'spread' option leaves them all but useless against larger ships.  What strategies have you employed that you found actually effective for RM DD?  So far, I've managed only four 'kills' given the RM DD's relatively light gun armament - the Leon with level 15 gunners wielding 4x3.9 inch guns, whereas the Kagero with level 15 gunners can command 6x5-inch guns.  I suspect that, given their small size, they are perhaps more oriented towards harrassing submarines.  Playing in GB, however, tends to gain you faster XP but at the expense of leaving new accounts a little light in credits.  So, I'm not sure that's the best course.  Any suggestions?

RM DDs have generally more powerful but fewer guns than their counterparts. This means you need to make every shot count. Hang behind other DDs and use your range if you are playing blitz.

Your overheat is not as efficient as other DDs as well and you lose speed a lot sooner. Again youre not a durable brick like UK. Play more like a sniper.

GB will get you through your levels a lot faster. ASW is your best job with depthchcarges or HH.

You can just grind your levels until L25 where you can unlock the ECL with its 6" 20 degree lasers...

I'm alternating between a Leone with hedgehogs and depth charges in GB and a Navigatori with the 5.9" singles in Blitz. It is kind of fun seeing your shells doing 200-300+ damage to CAs with decent reload. Unfortunately, I can't spot my shells at max range just yet.

The thing I find most frustrating is the Navigatori (dd2 at lvl18) has the biggest and most numerous R slots till the CLs at lvl32/34. I expected my ship to get better as I went up the shipline, but it doesn't seem like it does it?

The only guns that seemed to fit properly on the Soldati and its remod was the 5"/38 twins for the big R slots and single for the small middle one...

Then use simultaneous fire mode...  (at least the guns have the same angles and ranges)
