Good to see ur progress mr beer!
While the Courbet might be the best for blitz, the Bretagne truly is a wicked bb1 for GB.
So far, it is by far the best bb1 I used in GB. I'm curious as to how you will like the BB2's.
I personally didn't like the Lyon, cause you can't outrun anything, and even though it has many guns, the spread is awful. Normandie on the other hand, truly is epic fun due to its size :D
