  • The Thunderer has some of the scariest guns at T10. Incredible dispersion, a meaty caliber and a penetration value that is no joke. The only balancing factor is the squishy hull they are located on, but even that's not really THAT weak, leaving it a real powerhouse in the battle. As usual, you can find my complete build at the end.

    If the Smolensk didn't exist, I'd straight up say "get this one". Now it's a debate. Can upload a game of Thunderer where I shoot almost nothing but HE (306k damage) if you guys want, the ship is fantastic with both shell types.

      Based off this I would say you are actually leaning towards Thunderer, since it offers much the same benefits in terms of fun and strength, but it is much less problematic for the game's health.

      Since this seems to be the best way to answer your question toward the end of the video and have you see it, I’m posting here.
      The reason that the Thunderer has faster reload and traverse is that since the turrets are twins, so they’re actually lighter than the Conq’s triple turrets. This means with the same housing you can fit more reload equipment and the traverse motors are more effective than the heavier triple.

      Completely fabricated by LittleWhiteMouse as a joke premium ship. I think it was just to scare people. She put it at tier IX and slapped some 457mm guns on it. Along with a very convincing "review" of the ship.
      I guess WG saw this and was like "This is perfect!"
      You can see at the very bottom of the review she gives a disclaimer on the whole thing.

    For the turret traverse it's becuase the Thunderer has the Conq legendary built in. Same as the ruddershift, the difference is the Conq has to give up the concealment mod for those benefits, the Thunderer does not.

    Little commentary about gun reload of smaller vs bigger guns.
    It actually isn't far fetched at all to have bigger guns reloading faster than smaller caliber ones - if the bigger ones are in twin turrets, and the larger ones in triples. Essentially and without going into quite extensive and complex explanations, yes, they are bigger guns, but you only need two shells per turret vs needing three (smaller, yet still huge) shells for the smaller caliber. It's only natural and easy to understand that handling 2 massive shells is quite less of an inconvenience than handling three smaller, but still massive, shells.
    Hence the realism BS about this ship vs Conqueror doesn't come from the reload. It comes from somehow selling the idea that the same turret ring&barbette that can accomodate two 457mm guns (and their related equipment, gun handling mechanisms to elevate/depress the guns, reloading mechanisms, etc), can do the same with a turret housing three 419mm guns. That's BS to the max, and completely laughable. But the fact that a twin 457mm turret can reload faster than a triple 419mm gun one is not.
    (for the sake of comparison and perception - The scharnhorst barbette&turret ring was just big enough, after some adaptation work, to accomodate a twin 380mm turret...while being designed for a 280mm triple turret. That's a whooping 100mm of caliber differential. And it's not as if the 280mm turret had been designed to be cramped or small, it was quite spacious for the caliber...and that turret ring and barbette still only could barely handle a twin 380mm mount. Compare that with this BS).

    One question about "how can it be faster when bullet bigger" stuff, well 2 barrels. Each one would weigh more but you have fewer guns. Also space, we know the kg5class battleship had gun issues and this was credited with the additional complexity of fitting 4 guns in a turret rather than two (i think nelson has similar issues). So for make-believe logic, you could argue, you are moving fewer if heavier shells with more space. (maybe the additional space allows for more crew to help maneuver the round or better lifting gear.

  • @josynaemikohler6572
    @josynaemikohler6572 Před 4 lety

    Triple and Quadruple gun turrets tend to have a lower rate of fire compared to twins, even with smaller caliber, since everything is more growded, more complicated, more prone to malfunctions.
    For example both, the Bayern and the Queen Elizabeth class using 15" guns had a higher, theoretical rate of fire, compared to the US standards built at the same time with 14" guns. In practice however, the ROF was around 1 per minute, regardless, because you have to observe were your shell land and adjust accordingly.

I find Conqueror very consistent myself so long as I play smart and don't potato. Also the T10 Warspite comparision isn't quite accurate, since for T6 Warspite is ridiculously tough and agile, regens more along the lines of Conqueror than Thunderer, and actually has meaningful secondaries and can brawl.
    But...since I am not even seriously considering Smolblap and already have a Legendary DM with Permanent camo, it'll either be Thunderer or Yoshino if I get enough coal before the update changes.

      That's less combined fire chance than the Conq and roughly equal to the 12 gun BBs. It's the HE alpha which is the main advantage, the blast zone is related to alpha so each individual shell can break AA and secondaries across a significant portion of a ship.

    So far fighting this thing has been a mixed bag. Maybe it's just the players but I consistently feel like I can easily farm them in my Ibuki and Yoshino. Occasionally you get a really good player but the range I have on the two makes it easy to counter snipe with HE. Maybe the players will get better but I have noticed just how squishy it it to farm.

You get nuclear HE use it set fires on everything you can. If cruisers close the distance switch to your 18 inch AP shells they over mach every part of them and you will delete them with out even trying.
