Random history: the USS New Orleans also lost her bow from a torpedo detonating her forward magazine. Lost everything forward of the second turret. She didn't sink and was able to sail backwards to Australia for temporary repairs.

[@vvolven0359]

Not to be an ass but it was the USS Minneapolis who got the bow taken off not the New Orleans but the Minneapolis was a New Orleans class CA so I can see how u got them confused

[@matthewmichaels7422]

@@vvolven0359No offense taken. It's been a while since I did any ship history so I guess I gotta brush up on it again haha. Thank you for the correction!

Thanks for these vids. I’m really enjoying the history tidbits you’re adding. Staying in touch with a little bit of naval history is one reason I love this game. I really appreciate your laidback and positive attitude. Keep it up 👍

Glad you like them!

U.S Carriers got teased in the Benham challenges, the next campaign we might get a test

[@alastor6114]

I have faith in the devs to get carriers right. The Benham is a perfect example of how little faith the community has in the devs. Everyone was crying and complaining that Benham will be OP and it’ll be another Yuudachi but she’s perfectly balanced. And I’m betting carriers will be fall under the same fate.

[@Bobby11567]

@@alastor6114 same, especially since they understand some of their mistakes in PC, plus the overall success in the Yamato test, the dev's are doing a great job handling this game and will probably see a full release by summer time

I got the Benham and i love using her she is very fun to play Edit:That History lesson in the match,I love it.

[@olegwinner]

Guys you should also check history about the destroyer USS Pope, Clemson type. Despite ww1 age, their cheap price allowed to mass produce them a lot before ww2. Its both tragic and heroic! Yet kinda little happy ending.

[@NAVYPROUD34]

Looks like a farragut with big upgrades. I love the farragut

[@princeofpersia9154]

I’m disappointed with how much they nerfed the distance compared to the Pc version. And I’m assuming unless I have both of those commanders I won’t have that same 5.5 detectability range. This was a bust

[@STX_Hyperion]

Level Bey all the way up. I believe Spartan only has him level 14. If you get him max to 16 legendary 2, you should be able to get the detection down to 5.4

[@callofdutyguy9]

I think this ship could use a buff. It feels balanced but underwhelming. I have the concealment at 5.4km but you need to traveling ahead of ships because the it’s still easy to get spotted if you are broadside and the torpedos are slow.

[@princeofpersia9154]

It’s not just the detection or speed of the torpedoes that’s horrible it’s also them nerfed damage. 9k per torpedo, not including each ships reduction to torpedo damage factored in. You could be doing 5k to some battleships

[@DaBeastBricks]

Just a friendly reminder that the Gneisenau was spotting you at 3km because he is a Tier 6 battleship and all battleships Tier 6 and above have their guaranteed acquisition at 3km!

[@kevinweber2369]

See, I love this historical skin. I graduated as a world war 2 history major and I am in love with this game and there skins for added realism. I would love to have an opportunity to create every historical skin for every current ship because it adds so much nice detail to the game!! Everybody please help me get noticed to maybe get an opportunity with WarGaming to make some skins!!

[@jadenantoniotoriboocasso1142]

It's a weird design of a ship but I like that. Trying weird ships is my specialty and I love it! Though low-key? Would've been nice to make a nice museum for this ship.

[@CyberRabid.]

I've found that 5.7km detectability and below are playable DDs.... anything above that and you're more like a stealth cruiser without the health pool.

[@Zapranoth-lf8nt]

Oh yeah...one of the 4 destroyers leading the way for Washington and South Dakota...except for Gwin, they all got torped to open the battle, sacrificing themselves to keep the battleships intact. Curiously, it took several salvos to convince the Japanese that Washington and South Dakota weren't the "cruisers" they had been identified as all afternoon and evening long. Eventually, the size of the shell splashes made them see the light.

[@Volksgenossen]

Tier 6+ BBs have 3km guaranteed detection radius.

[@lastationproductions]

Awesome video Spartan and i like the destoryer mind you ive only played one game with the Benham

[@britanica1298]

That’s what happens when battleships don’t pay attention and boo! The torpedos scare them and kill the ship,good game spartan 👍👍

[@Justin-st5xv]

I think that when I get this I would put Atago as an inspiration and reduce the torpedo detection down from 1.1 to .9. with Atago that should reduce the torpedo reaction time down to around 6 seconds which is pretty good.

[@DaIssimo]

Be thankful the torp range got buffed just before the launch.

[@oldmansolo572]

GG and nice Review!!!

[@lillpete64]

What up brother here's an idea for you American torpedoes give very little warning to their target which is why I have put atago 16/3 the commander on my ship with Bay for Obvious reasions mabey give it a shot.. or possibly use Tanaka to increase torpedo damage..for, for mentiond reasion (ie) low dammage..just a thought that I have tryed.peace.!!

We need to push war gaming for ur very own flag for sure lol and can u do a video on a full breakdown of tactics in a game if that’s possible forgive me if u done this before but I think I need help with the tactics and that with destroyers and cruises a bit and battle ship accuracy 😁😊

[@owenpope9456]

I wish that just like how the patch is, you can have the option to put a flag on your ship that is the same as your patch.

[@godzillaiv2096]

Battleship accuracy..you mean dispersion? Or leading? Or Both?

[@hyperv3nom921]

Godzilla IV mix of both tbh

[@godzillaiv2096]

@@hyperv3nom921 Look at 10:34 when he brings up the aiming screen. As a fellow BB main. How I look at lead is this. The very first small notch is a quarter lead then 1 full lead then 1 1/2 lead then 2 then 2 1/2 and 3. So most Battleships will take usually 2 full leads with small adjustments. Cruisers usually get 3 full leads at range with some adjustments. DD's...3 full leads with some adjustments but only if you feel confident. As for Battleship accuracy. I play a ton of US BB's so I have Sims at Lvl 16. Legendary 3 full dispersion. Use a dispersion captain but the one thing you have to do is and I can't stress this enough is fire & dmg con management! Don't panic. Take out cruisers as quickly as possible. Depending on the nation you enjoy most. Just like me. Focus your promotional orders and insignias on a specific dispersion BB captain for instance for the USN Line. William Sims. Use minimap as much as possible to take crossfire opportunities while maintaining your priority targets like cruisers.

[@hyperv3nom921]

Godzilla IV damm I appreciate the help man but I try all this but I think it’s just cuz I’ve been playing only 1 month and a half but I do have 5 tier 7s but idk how to do it constantly tho

[@CocoCrispy_]

Well i already got admiralty backing so i might as well try to get her😂even though they dont do a lot of damage theres a lot of torps and they reload fast so you can probably get nasty flood damage since floods suck like old pc

[@alastor6114]

This is absolutely hilarious, everyone was crying Benham was going to OP before she was even added and now that we’ve gotten her she’s very balanced. I’m betting the same will go for Carriers, everyone will be bitching but when push comes to shove it will just show how the community has such little faith in the devs for no good reason.

[@SpartanElite43]

A lot of folks just have no faith in WG but they forget that each game has a separate Dev team that is Independent of the WG as a Whole.

I dont see how carriers would be op.. The ship is like one big target dummy and the planes do little damage. The only thing usefull i see carriers adding to the field is spotting.

[@icecool8661]

When carriers come in this game, those sniping BB's sitting/camping by themselves better watch out, your going to die really quick by plane torps. CVN's prevent camping due to there spotting range, and a good CVN player can spot those pesky destroyers.
