The Germans had a 31,5 inch Gun in WW2 (I guess everyone saw a picture of it once). Its granades were able to punch through one meter of solid steel. This ship would have only laughed at that.

[@maddox0110]

@@minecraftguys3363 Schwerer Gustafs was designed to go trough 1 meter of steel. It was also German, so, overachiving by a lot in that respect. Also, it was a houwitzer. Different to the longer barreled cannons or shorter mortars. Meaning, over a few 1000m it would have delivered plunging fire, and the Odin has thick belt here, but deck and turret tops ain't that heavy.

This was so stupid but so glorious at the same time. Just casually sinking the majority of probably Japan's biggest battleships with 16-in guns

[@armorhide406]

Battleships may be designed to be proof against their own guns, but usually at many tens of thousands of yards. Up close, historically, even 8" guns on cruisers could put the work on battleships. Yamato would've fallen victim to Iowa's shells, although IDK what kind of muzzle energy and shell weight this Odin is supposed to have

[@NareshSinghOctagon]

@@armorhide406 ,you'd probably have to find the real world examples of the shells used for that gun caliber,the muzzle velocity could possibly be similar if the barrel length is the same.

[@Jtretta]

I tried this, assassinated 3 of the 5 BB's with F you torpedoes at the start. All the ships ran out of torpedoes, then 5" ammo, then 16" ammo and 7" ammo too. I managed to kill all 5 DD's with 4" fire. In the end the ship took about 2.5 hours to sink, ate about 8k shells of various sizes and 24 torpedoes.

1:46 - "Although even at 1000 meters the AI can still dodge them" You aren't kidding. One time I made a ridiculously over-the-top torpedo battleship and was firing about 40 torpedoes at a time against only other battleship targets to see if torpedoes were even viable to use. Not a single one hit, the AI instantly knew as soon as a torpedo would fire (which I had that sonar for my ship...) and instantly knew where it would be and when and just maneuvered their huge battleships like Zamboni machines around so that the torpedoes would always miss them within feet. It was infuriating to watch.

I'm imagining the scenario: After victory in world war II Germany and Japan were dividing up the world. But with disputes over borders and colonies, tensions were rising. After a few years and a couple of super battleships build, a Japanese task force accompanied by the "Odin" were sailing in the Pacific, hunting remains of an Australian pirate fleet while in Berlin and Tokyo the diplomats were struggling to contain a crisis concerning the ownership of the former Netherlands colonies in the Pacific. Eventually the negotiations broke down and war was declared. The message of war arrived at the task force soon after and so the former allied ships suddenly turned their guns at each other in order to surprise the other. And so this battle started.

[@WNytes]

So I just tried to recreate this ship design with the new armor and ammunition schemes in the update. I have placed all of the values as identically as possible on the left hand selection. Where the old value was split (example: belt extended now has belt extended fore and aft) I made them identical. Where there was no value previously (Superstructure) I left as default (2.1") And without adding even a single gun, the ship is now overweight. With the cheapest/lightest towers, It's coming in at 138,281 tons of an allowed 130,000 tons. HOWEVER! If I drop both belt extended values to 25" instead of 50", suddenly I can match the design in this video almost exactly! I think there may be a glitch in the armor computation where the deck extended and belt extended were duplicated, instead of split (roughly) in half.

[@Debbiebabe69]

Ships can get ridiculous armour in this game because you can change the 'range' of the ship, and everyone just sets it to minimum. In reality, German battleships would have the games top 'very long' option, Japanese and American battleships would have 'very very long', and British battleships would have 'very very very long' - and this would be non negotiable (The British actually forced the others to amend the Washington Treaty to exclude bunkerage, as this would give them a massive disadvantage as British ships had to sail longer distances to their colonies). The game allows you to change the fact that in reality, a HUGE proportion of a ships volume and displacement was taken up by, not weapons, ammo, armour and engines, but fuel and food supplies.
