The thing is, the G.K. in the German blueprints was supposed to have something like 20in guns lol. The H-Class ships were meant to have enormous guns lol

[@biggum2334]

Unfortunately...russian developers would NEVER make german things shine. The american/french/russian (ships) are blessed in this game. It is like (sorry do not know the english "word") Arschkriechen.

In pc i think u can choose the guns

[@Kapitän_Stier]

@@toenailmuncher0772 not really. I mean they can keep with the German deal and make it have horrid accuracy. Deal great damage in a close up brawl and let's it's accuracy suffer past 13km

[@OutlawedOutlander]

The L stands for length when talking about German guns. It means the shortest possible barrel length needed to achieve max velocity for said gun.

[@mikemaskell458]

So wat does 420mm L/48 Drh LC/40 mean?

[@GaryJones69420]

​@Mike Maskell L/48 means the Length LC/40 means the year it was designed (1940)

@@davej_25 IIRC it was only a paper design Germany never could of made it IRL

[@shockwave6213]

@@sniper321fire 2 of the H-39s had their Keels laid down to build, but they decided to scrap those to focus on U-Boat construction. The best strategic decision they could have made. There were 5 H class ship plans. H-39 and H-41 to H-44. Friedrich Der Große in the PC version of the game is an amalgamation of H-39, H-41 and H-42. Großer Kurfurst is based on H-43 and H-44, depending which guns you pick.

[@DaBeastBricks]

The Yamato has the same base reload as the Iowa and Kurfurst, it's just you put the aiming systems mod (slot 4) on the Iowa and the 420mm guns (slot 5) on the Kurfurst whereas you put the reload mod (slot 4) on the Yamato. The 420mm guns increase reload by 2 seconds and even with the reload mod it is still 2 seconds slower than it could be.

[@SteakYummy]

Cant wait to see this ty in advance for the vid spartan I know it will be great :)

[@thebobbins1735]

Only major problem with the GK is that you need to expose a lot of broadside to get all 12 guns on one target. That is not preferable 😉

[@SpartanElite43]

Thats true

[@fromthesidelines1453]

love this ship! awesome vid as always more more of the Grosser Kurfurst please!

[@shadowshifter5472]

Just as a quick side note the grober Kurfürst is next to impossible to citadel at 10 km and lower, not even the Yamato’s guns can punch through the steep angle that the turtle back gives... and whenever you hear that concussion sound when you get hit for a lot doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a citadel in fact I believe it occurs when you take 1/5 of your health in one salvo so about 10 to 20 k damage in battleships... also if you’re not sure you can tell when you zoom out and if for example in this video (when spartan gets hit at around 14:40) there were a bunch of 6k damage numbers that popped up meaning it was only pens that he took.

[@SpartanElite43]

Watched it back he got 4 seperate pens for 4655 each could've sworn there was a 13k in there

[@RAPTOR-ke6gz]

Hi spartan been a loyal fan of the channel since you first started posting world of warships legands content anyway moving on The 420mm L/48 drh LC/40 was a naval gun planed by and developed by engineers of Krupp under the German kreigesmarine in 1934 in later years it was adopted for coastal defense. The original intention for those guns were going to be for the early H class ships that would be the successor to the bismark class.

[@SpartanElite43]

Glad you enjoyed

[@RAPTOR-ke6gz]

@@SpartanElite43 like wise man keep them coming im close to getting my California i got my yamoto and grosser kurfurtst looking to see ya in a match man take care and keep the superstructure up 😀 cheers !!!

[@Broncosfan8585]

As much as you played with your speed and reversed, I think prop mod would suit your gameplay much better than steering gears, remember prop mod helps you get up to speed faster and doubles the speed you travel in reverse. An Iowa with it goes 20 knots in reverse and without it only 11 knots. Good gameplay as always Spartan!

[@SuperAloeFresh]

Running with scissors is actually getting worse. The dispersion penalty is going up

How many days it take you to unlock yamoto

[@jpgod8113]

the video has not started yet and already has 88 likes! You're AWESOME Spart!!

[@archangelofstories5565]

The Grosser Kurfurst is based loosely on the H-41 battleship design in case you were wondering what the ship is supposed to be. It's one of my favorite ships because of its insane size and power, sure I often become a priority target for pretty much every ship on the enemy team but I make them pay for it with blood and tears XD

[@utcloud]

In regards to the difference between reload rates, there are a few things (historical and ahistorical) which may be part of Wargaming.com's computations. First, the Germans never EVER built a naval rifle larger than 406.4mm (16"). Of those fabled 16" rifles, only 3 were constructed according to OKM design (for the 'H' class battleships). Of those 3, only one had a power rammer (the other two were manually loaded and rammed). Second, the Iowa-class battleships were automated from the magazine all the way to the block; the Yamato and Musashi were partially automated, just as the Germans, requiring the shells and bags be transferred manually from the ready-service magazine to the transfer conveyor belt and then again from the belt to the block. The Germans also used a brass casing final propellant which served the purpose of sealing the breach during the firing.

[@chanisarmir5991]

I absolutely LOVE this ship on PC. I can't wait until I unlock it on here. Great brawler.

[@chaoscommentary2179]

I feel like I made the right choice to go for the yomoto first me and my buddy got ours at the same time and our first time using them we went up agents 3 of the German legendarys and we sank all of them without taking to much damage our selves. So I’m hear to finally see the stats of this ship to see the differences

[@eggheadanimations3459]

Good job it has plenty of armour, the rear firing angles remind me of the vanguard 😂

[@SpartanElite43]

Yeah the rear guns are in a terrible position but its doable

[@ch619916]

After a very long period! Of grinding and saving up silver. Today finally became the day, that USS Iowa joined my fleed. Now I just have to rewatch all your content that surrounds Iowa. 22:08 It cost how much for ship service!!! And I forth that Iowa was an expensive girl demanding 175.500$ just for her service.

[@SpartanElite43]

They are expensive but as long as you're doing well you can still net good silver I made 135k silver in this match with out a silver booster

[@ch619916]

Spartan Elite43 How much does the Yamato cost in ship service?

[@Azzi61]

3:42 the LC/40 would be the year of design.

[@SpartanElite43]

Oh cool

[@godzillaiv2096]

The Iowa has a longer reload because of the 11% buff to dispersion whereas the Yamato and GK don't have that option so you opt out for the reload speed.

[@richardgirard9480]

I like the Kurfurst, especially with 420 mm guns. I think you might want to bow tank--or at least present some more angle to the enemy--as you continue playing. It's a tank, play it that way.

[@monkeymansgaming5761]

Im assuming you arent gonna see this and you may already know now, but anyone who does see it and doesnt know why, the American battleship Armor Peircing is heavier than all of the other nations, they have more steel in the nose of the shell and less powder, they have more armor penatrative capabilities but less explosive damage, since they are heavier the automated system has to be beefed up to carry the weight from the lower turret deck and thus moves slower cause the whole system weighs more

[@mr.toasty5464]

I'd say gk needs a armor overwork, because you can get crazy amounts of damage on deck and superstructure even when you angle it right. That cant be wanted!

[@SpartanElite43]

Its fine

[@Mr.Mumbler]

420 mm = 16,53 inches, and, well, the reload might be because its expetimental, it is a paper model afterall, tho, to take a Jingles standpoint, id too would love to see it as a world of tanks map, light tanks scouting in the rigging, artillery at the bow and stern, and mediums battling out at the superstructure, kinda like CoD 1, the Tirpitz map :D

[@cloud218]

Japan was known for reloading fast during the battle of Midway, I think it may be a nod to that as to why the Yamamoto reloads faster

[@garmwolfe]

They couldn't reload their planes fast enough

[@brandonabc2022]

If you look at the veni, vidi, vici update video and look at 2:24, i think there’s a new legendary ship? The KHABAROVSK?

[@homefront1999]

I was really wanting to get into legends and was something I had been campaigning Wargame to bring to console since I loved WOT on the console. But, while I loved WOT. I just couldn't get into World of Warships console. I think it's just the fact that all the progress I made on the computer wouldn't be able to carry over. I know that these are pretty different games. But something about having to regrind the ships really killed the hype for me. Not sure what I was expecting.

Ammo storage in the turret vs in the citadel of the ship. Yamato turrets have room to store the follow up shots I think

[@MestreBoen]

Snowykaze I’m quite sure it’s the other way around. On pc it’s amazing because of the secondaries and a turtleback that works, making it one of the best if not the best brawler, while on console it’s just underwhelming.

You should try Kedrov over Sims simply because BB's don't get much out of Sims skill and you should see how much turret traverse Kedrov cuts off. Alternatively there's Nelson or one of the new Italian commanders for decreased incoming damage.

I just finished my GK... now let's learn how to use it in the best way possible so as not to take any credit loss. Which commander should I use? Ciliax or Von Hipper, both are lvl 16 and 1 legendary

[@HarmfulDesign]

One thing I've noticed about the Kurfurst is that the firing angles on the rear turrets aren't the best. Getting those back guns involved requires you to expose a fair amount of broadside.

[@shadowshifter5472]

Yes the firing angles are sub par to say the least when facing the front to the enemy... however if you angle your rear to them you will have better firing angle overall as your front turrets can aim back farther than your rear turrets can aim forward. (Same with your secondaries, they have better firing angles when the enemy is behind you)

[@SpartanElite43]

Yep

[@varoleon0242]

[@Fallenking223]

Julio Pineda yes you can.You have to go the controller setup.On my setup I press x(PS4).

[@cybercop4740]

I think the short reload for yamato is for balancing. Because she only has good guns and torpedo red. Armor and AA are crap

[@simpinainteasy1916]

The reason why the yamato has a faster reload is because irl it had autoloaders

[@SpartanElite43]

Don't most big guns? The shells are so massive

[@simpinainteasy1916]

What I was meaning to say is the whole turret was automated. It took 72 men to operate a turret for the Iowa. It took less than half of that to operate one turret from the Yamato.
