NuclearNadal Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I was wondering if we are going to see shell dyes? This occurred to me whilst watching a documentary on the Battle off Samar. This also asks the question of certain nations having severe disadvantages? Whilst I have seen that each nation will have their own characteristics, will this include (in this case) something like fire control RADAR for the Japanese? I also came across HMS Incomparable. Had it been built it would've had 20in guns. Is the game going to stick to historical gun calibers? If not then would we see such other things as the Tillman Battleship (T-III I believe) which would've had 6-gun turrets? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolic_Wave Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Shell dyes could be a really nice form of eye candy, but I'm not sure it'd be particularly useful. It might be a nice ancillary for shell tracer for distinguishing HE and AP, though. Alternatively, use them as an accuracy upgrade. Perhaps slightly increasing mixed battery accuracy through different dye colours, or helping a division tell their shell splashes apart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatZenoGuy Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The more ships firing on a single target should make said ships less accurate. Shell dyes would remove such a penalty. That's historically what they were used for and why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
