brucesim2003 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 The AI sure likes to build glass cannon battlecruisers. Just defended a convoy against a 36k ton ship with 21 11" guns (ALL on the centreline) and 37 knots. The problem was, she had armour under 5" maximum, and you could see by the way she was behaving that the ship was EXTREMELY bow heavy. My cruisers with 9x 9" auto loading guns just shredded it. I opened fire at 12k range, and by the time she opened fire at about 7.5k range, the hits were coming in at least 3-4 hits per broadside from both my cruisers. As the range closed, it just got worse from the battlecruisers perspective. It also seemed the ship must have had insufficient funnels, because she never got remotely close to 37 knots.

Hellstrike Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 That mission is pretty wonky. You can build mini Scharnhorsts (3*3 autoloading 11inch rifles, 14 inches of belt armour) which ususally get an ammo detonation on the BC within 10 minutes.
