The speed boost here may be a nod to the history of Rodney. I think she was on her way to the US east coast for a refit when the Bismark was located, and her captain/engineering crew managed to push her past her rated top speed in order to join up with HMS King George V in time for Bismark's final battle.

While I love the point that you are TRYING to make here, but instead you made me realize WG actually is in line with model ship pricing. The number you have in mind is likely from years ago. HMS Rodney in 1/700 (painfully small) is north of $40 USD. My preferred scale of 1/350 is usually twice that, or more…and I cannot find Rodney in that scale. I still will stick to giving time to plastic models. But the 3D models WG has in this game are the best I’ve seen.

This was a must for me as Rodney alondside Ark Royal and Dido were built by Cammell Laird in my home town . Other notable ships from Lairds being Prince of Wales, HMNZS Achilles, RMS Mauretania 1938, Ark Royal again in 1950, CSS Alabama and the ill-fated craft, troop ship Birkenhead and sub Thetis. The Birkenhead struck rocks and sank off the tip of South Africa in 1852. It was famous because the troops were orderd to form up and stand fast. This allowed the women and children to get onto life boats and survive. Never the less there was great loss of life. Thetis sank in Liverpool Bay in 1939 due to an accident while on trials. The loss of life consisted of RN crew and shipyard workers. It was headline news at the time. Thetis was refloated and commisioned under the nameThunderbolt. As Thunderbolt she was sunk again in 1943.

I find it interesting that have a citadel above the water is a good thing b/c you preserve more buoyancy, water can't just flood above it which would threaten to sink the entire ship without breaching the citadel, and grants more protection in general to more of the ship.

Also, as you hear me explain later, yes the ship is meant to be played at close range, but the issue is that the Nelson/Rodney hull is terrible for that thanks to its massive freeboard, thin armor, and exposed citadel. Then put her at T7 where when she’s uptiered by a single tier, most battleships can just overmatch her bow/stern.

So no one tier lower Lenin? Nothing to see here moving along.

I find it hard to believe that DoY is better than Rodney

Did you know, how the Navy builds its ships? They just place the superstructures and gun turrets on, only they're weight keeps them on the ship. If the ship starts to capsize, they are designed to fall off and drop to the bottom, in the hopes that will right the ship.

Not the superstructures, or at least not most of them. They're fairly firmly attached. The turrets, though, yes.

As an Englishman I was once hopeful that Wargambling would release HMS Rodney but always worried what a Bollox Up they'd make of her, Now I know, Thank's Sea Lord, have a Coffee on me Mate.

That is navy dependent, Oklahoma's turrets stayed in place for both the trip over as well as the quite slow trip back, Yes the German turrets were held in by their own weight, but this is not universal, Ryan over at BBNJ has even showed the blocks the fasten the turrets down

< HARD PASS ON THIS SHIP - Thanks Sealord your ship reviews, your spot on this one & you have saved me tons of wasted cash for mediocre ships,”. - that being said - What I notice are trends from them over the last 7-9 years - if the ship is released to just “buy” it’s going to be a frustrating ship - This ship is that - there’s no reason to buy a miserable ship - even that Nelson was a toss up but it has the better heal - honestly - this one will be a surprise when it pops up in my Santa crates so I can wait - this leads into my “gripe” with the game - the person that delivered this ship to the game obvisly never played WOWS - great art but sad performance - that person should be let go and allowed to make ships for that crappy War Thunder - haha I bet that person was a DEV for that disaster - this IS a game if I want frustration all I need is to talk to my wife - War gaming will now have “FOMO” for my cash - I can’t tell you how many crappy ships I have purchased from them - seriously - the ships you want you can’t get - the ships no one wants are in the Premium Shop? This is sad - why don’t they just put a boat up and WE goto to armory and BUY the modules we Want and allow US to PICK and MOD our Ships - war games is missing the boat here cause they continue to let DEVS who DONT PLAY THE GAME make these ships - all I ever hear is that’s bad for the game but no one says my MONEY is Bad - Thanks - that’s my rant - what’s sad - you keep saying “ the Johnston “ is coming - I bet it will be a disappointment - Great Review Crappy ship - it’s time the community sends a message to them - “Make WOWS FUN AGAIN”

Poor mans Nelson and I see they stuffed Nelson in the lootbox just for added insult with a 1% chance of getting it after you have got the crap ships before it , WG becoming scummier and scummier.
