could you make a battlecruiser with 20 inch guns that is focused entirely for long range and accuracy? glass cannon sort of ship? Might be fun to use as an "artillery ship" at the back of a fleet

[@HMSConqueror]

yes i think munro or other guy did the HMS Incomparable, a battlecruiser proposed with 20 inch guns.

[@martenkahr3365]

Doesn't really work in a fleet battle. AI is good enough at prioritizing threats and vulnerable ships that they'll target that "glass cannon" and it ends up sinking after one or two plunging deck hits. And the only thing you can really do to stop them from targeting a dangerous, but large and fragile ship, is to push Destroyers into the enemy formation piecemeal to force them to panic-fire at the torpedo threat instead. Otherwise the destroyers get slaughtered too quickly to but the BC the time to reload and rack up its damage.

[@matchesburn]

@@martenkahr3365 There is a way to make it work in-game similar to real life, but it requires asinine levels of micromanagement. Control your battlecruiser and just go full steam ahead and unload on the enemy. But have your camera focused on the enemy shooting at you. When they shoot, as soon the shells are out, have your battlecruiser turn hard left or right rudder for a few seconds. Then reset. Even if the AI has you dialed in (and it's the AI, they cheat like hell in UA:D, they certainly will be on target), they're going to miss. Ironically the only time you'll be hit is in the case of the AI actually missing you. But, admittedly, it's not a very entertaining way to play. Effective, somewhat realistic, but not very fun.

A Ship like this would go straight from the slipway into drydock for Modernization, due to being obsolescent by the Launch Date. After that Modernization Process, though? Holy shit, it'll be right back on top! In a period before anti-ship missiles and guided munitions tech, this ship would be the Pinnacle. Anti-air would need some upgrades.

For campaign thoughts, they already have some stuff in-game to reflect what it'll be like. Whether it's accurate or not right now, have no idea. Got build time and maintanence costs in the stats. Built something similar to your ship and end up with 55 month build time and over $500K/month. That's some significant time and effort that could be sunk by a much smaller fleet if they can get in and torpedo you (or you lose the war before it can be launched). And the fact you can build 2-3 more sane BBs or maybe 4-5 lighter BBs with that money that would finish faster. Also ships that have been around for 1-2 years longer than the big "hero" ship would have better trained crews and experience of any quirks ships have. Jutland is a great example, 2 different battlecruiser groups, 2 different training methods, the ones with the time and space to train long range gunnery accuracy hit more often than the ones who trained for speed loading. I really want some form of designing enemy fleets in the game to test out some budget constrained ideas. Do some consistant testing of 2 vs 1 or 3 vs 1 instead of the crapshoot of what the AI builds right now.

@@JaimonNorPai Yes, that would be cheaper and still powerful enough. Especially since Chinese interests are not that far from home shores. Russia currently also produces lesser ships, for example Essen-class frigates, it's cheaper to produce several destroyers fully packed with modern rocket launchers than a one big ship no matter how protected. The incident with Type 1164 "Moscow" several days ago showcases this and will push the doctrine to many cheaper ships even more.

I would love for this game to have a mode where you can turn off weight displacement limitations but you're simply penalized in other areas. Like, in my mind, imagine you have a super battleship to defend your most vital port, your aircraft carriers are gone and have to rely on landbased airfields, AA emplacements and destroyers/cruisers for air defense. In response, your only option to make this super BB any bit combat effective is to armor and arm the everliving hell out of it. We're talking as much armor and weaponry you can fit and the ship still float. It may move at half the speed of smell but the enemy would have all of their guns pointed at it.

For the Campaign, the other restriction should also be the time to research all the components for something like this. All that research would probably mean you have to deprive your Navy of a budget to actually build enough of a fleet to keep the enemy at bay long enough to reap the rewards, meaning you have to build individually good ships but not much support for them and get new ones only every so often, so an enemy with a bit more of a research restriction but bigger build program might swamp you with technically less effective but much more numerous ships which would snowball out of control quite quickly, indeed.
