Constellation, is NOT Another American Battleship in World of Warships Legends 4K

USS Constellation steamed into tier 7 at 33.3 knots as a tier 7 Premium USN Battleship, er battlecruiser really. Like mentioned she is very fast, but gains all this speed by being more lightly armored. Her armament consists of 8 x 406mm guns, borrowing the same guns found on Colorado a tier lower, albeit with battlecruiser dispersion ellipses, and sharing the same 1.9 sigma rating. This means Constellation is exceptionally accurate. On top of this she has solid AA, and 3 x 9km torpedoes on each side of the ships with great rear firing angles, but poor for pushing. Finally, Constellation has a 9.9 km radar that lasts for 30 seconds, to round her out as an exceptional utility battleship at the tier. Is she worth brining to your port? Check out this gameplay and ship review to see for yourself.

Slight correction 6 Lexington class battlecruisers were laid down which were: Lexington,Constellation, Saratoga, Ranger, Constitution and United States. However due to the Washington naval treaty they had to be cancelled however they were allowed to convert 2 of them into carriers while the rest would be scrapped, the Japanese did the same with their Amagi class. Lexington and Saratoga would become carriers and as far as I know the name Ranger was the only one from these ships to be later given to a different carrier(CV-4) of the WW2 era.

[@DerkaGames]

Thanks for the info

[@TheDogGeneral]

Yeah the USS Lexington and the USS Saratoga were converted because they were the furthest along in the ship categories of construction that or the shipyards building them had greater political clout sadly it is one of those casualties of the treaty era if I had been running the show I've been calling the shots I would have scrapped every previous vessel and retained my more recent shifts until the other powers they could go pound sand but other opinions prevailed

[@moonytheloony6516]

Wherever he may or may not be, after hearing that a sunken carrier gives an angel its wings, George Bailey said "Attaboy Derka!"

[@crhispy7078]

Of course its not a battleship, it’s a hydrodynamic metal vessel capable of shooting metal at other hydrodynamic metal vessels. Some of the metal it shoots is also hydrodynamic. Along with that, the metal grid on top is an advanced metal detector. It also can launch a flying metal from it’s metal catapult.

[@DerkaGames]

😆😆 so eloquently put

[@gurin3374]

Metal

[@Mrdjs1133]

Metal AF 🤟

[@TheDogGeneral]

Will the constellation is a battle cruiser not a battleship as she is depicted in World of Warships as originally the Lexington class were supposed to be precursors to what would become the concept to the fast Battleship had constellation in her siblings been completed as battlecruisers they would have been as effective as any other or big gun capital ship she could make metal bleed though in World of Warships

[@Scottytremaine]

I bought her and I must say as someone who has almost every ship in the game this ship is one of the strongest ships in the game by far! I will be so happy when I see them on my side counters DD‘s extremely hard the ship is versatile with her high speed I speak for most players when I say I can’t stand seeing BBs at the back of the map damage farming, screaming at other players about how terrible they are for not moving up. Also, if you are at the end of the match and you’re the last one alive you have a real ability to hunt down a destroyer if that is the last ship left overall she is extremely worth it by far my favorite American battleship

[@DerkaGames]

Glad you're enjoying her! Yeah strong BB fa show

[@KkevrockK]

Did wargaming pay you for that? Lol. I can feel the love for real !

[@jaydylan1639]

Do you have the Plymouth? I’m deciding on that or Constellation and leaning toward the latter. @apollo

[@Scottytremaine]

@@jaydylan1639 Plymouth is a really good ship as well. The difference is, she’s not a battleship. If someone sees you in Plymouth odds are you’re gonna be sunk real quick she gets hit in the citadel far too easily for my taste constellation does not have super thick armor, but she can stand up to any cruiser in the game and has the ability to fight battleships if you angle properly both are really good ships if played correctly

[@trellegion1997]

@@Scottytremaine Constellation isn’t a battleship either, it is a battlecruiser taken from the Lexington class.

[@elcucui2933]

I've always been a fan of battle cruisers. I just bought the constellation per your review. And I have to say I really like this ship, it may very well be my favorite. Same ship upgrades as on your video, however, I have Dewey as Commander. 39.2 2. Knots. Inspirations, Guepratte and Frasier. No-Fly zone, look at me now, velocious, steer clear, 14.3 rudder , 12.3 concealment, if you like battle cruisers this ship is recommended.

[@DerkaGames]

That’s fast af! 😅

[@south_eagle1403]

Constellation looks like a great mid range support ship. I think in a division with a Massachusetts or Missouri would work so well with helping to tank hits or radaring destroyers. I think I will pick up the Constellation today. She is one thicc ship!

[@DerkaGames]

Thiccc af lol

[@MysticalDragon73]

First time watcher. A nice video overall. The spreadsheets were nice, though it would be helpful to have them up longer vs just flashing them. I almost missed them at first and had to pause many times. LOLS about each time a carrier dies at the 5:55 mark. Thats epic. As a dd main I DESPISE carriers. Nice comparing to the atlantico. With that comparison it was an easy choice as I HATE slow ships.

[@DerkaGames]

Thanks for the feedback! I figure some don't care about the charts so I try not to occlude their view for too long. I do always hope tho, that people pause and look at them, as there is a lot of great info there

[@shawngodin3209]

yeah i have no regrets buying atlantico early even now i have her secondaries at a solid 12.2 km but i still bough the mighty constellation as i was purely waiting for her to come in legends fair seas derka cheers

[@DerkaGames]

I'm quickly starting to fear Atlantico. The secondaries are gnarly lol happy sailing

[@zackgarrow5367]

Hey Derka, thanks for the great review, as always. Question: When you're shooting the carrier around 5:25, I noticed you did multiple zoom outs to finally settle into a shot. Other CCs i watch do this as well, but I've never fully understood why it's done. Thanks!

[@DerkaGames]

It's become a habit of sorts but it just helps a player to know that the auto aim is perfectly centered, and easier to make adjustments from there

[@johnwpmusic]

you are the best wows legends commentator and gamer i've found.

[@DerkaGames]

Hey thanks!! 🙏

Nice informative video mate , was thinking about getting it but gonna pass on this one and more than likely pick up Plymouth instead

[@DerkaGames]

Can't go wrong with Plymouth, that ship is a beast

[@james618]

Your videos are the best. 👍🙂👍. Also, I found out the hard way that the Constellation has torpedoes. 🤣

[@DerkaGames]

Yeah haha ive done that. And thanks man!!

It looks good but the armour and the squishiness makes me hesitant. I might get it some day later probably if they give a coupon or discount. Great Video as always Derka

I guess I'll buy it then 😆 cheers for the review 👍

[@DerkaGames]

I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of Constellations out there, since she turned out to be so strong

[@warant7295]

Seen a few of these and the commanders of the ships are doing circles to get them torps off XD

[@aproudbaguette3605]

This ship is the love child of Champagne and Missouri, she did take from Grandma Colorado but its not that bad, i wouldn't have shiped them but the result is damn good to say the least Though i feel like a kinda historical ship like this one should have come earlier, more so when you see all those Russian/German ships getting here every 2 days

[@DerkaGames]

It's a weird ship lol but pretty darn fun when playing! Will be one of my go to's I think

[@cxrive]

I’ve gotten in a 1v1 in Kansas with an enemy constellation, she is quite fragile, and tends to get chucked real hard. And also are you going to make a video on the new Italian dds?

[@DerkaGames]

Oh yeah for sure. I had a Kansas nuke me yesterday. Like 45k... Umm I haven't even played them. Haven't been looking forward to them lol

Great purchase and my current favorite ship, and a surprisingly good money maker! I play it aggressive, pushing and bullying cruisers and DDs. The last round I played I took part in taking out a Congress, lowa and iwami, very satisfying

[@DerkaGames]

Nice! Glad you're enjoying her

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

It already has good AA so go with the AA mod 2??? Normally on big ships i go with 20% longer range on secondary. Also i thought this was classified as heavy cruiser and not battleship 🤷‍♂️ but then i guess the graff being fast battleship is essentially heavy cruiser

[@babad1]

Why didn't you shoot the Atlântico to try and reset the middle cap? She now can go up to 12,4km in SB range... I agree with the builds and this ship having more carry potential, but at the end of the day, i think i'll still rather take the mighty Mo out instead. I will keep her in my aquisitions list for whenever i get a T7 coupon or she has an acceptable discount. GG.

[@DerkaGames]

Was probably holding my fire to force him not to turn out. Wanted him to give my teammates a nice target

[@kriv8805]

Hi Derka! Nice video as always! So sorry but i noticed the AP DPM for Gascogne is the last one on your chart. That's not right or is it? Her pre-buff AP DPM was 190400 (11900 AP alpha, 30 sec base reload) and with the buff it's now 222857 (13000 AP alpha, 28 sec base reload). She has 8 guns, did you counted only 6 guns to get the 142k? By the way, this is just me picking around. Keep up the good work! o7 PS: WG will make their budget for the next 2 years within 3 weeks selling this ship. 😅
