Your fast reload will help you catch the small window of opportunity. Only attempt to citadel when the enemy goes broadside.
Her speed is not horrible though, so getting ahead of slower BBs and chasing down CVs are still within the ability of the ship.Īgainst other cruisers, her sheer number of guns can be used as a powerful citadel shotgun at closer ranges, although good players will angle their ships towards you, making your low-penetration AP rounds bounce away harmlessly (even on cruisers). She's not a particularly fast ship, so she won't outrun most other cruisers, even those below its tier. Firepower-wise, she belongs to the HE-spam family, where the pros lies in their ability to guarantee a fire on almost any ship in 2 accurate salvos as well as ripping DDs to shreds whereas the cons include the slow shell velocity paired with the relatively short firing range of the guns. Just keep in mind of enemy torpedoes and dodge as necessary. Your RoF will absolutely murder destroyers. You can keep cruisers manoeuvring (read: distracted) by just flinging HE shells their way.Īgainst battleships, try to make yourself a small target (by keeping your axis pointed towards the enemy ship) and only show your broadsides if you are reasonably certain that the enemy is not aiming at you.ĭo not be afraid to sally forth against destroyers. Try to stay close to capital ships and just keep your enemies alight, and provide AA cover as needed.
You are also a support vessel you should not lead the line in an attack. You need practice in order to be able make hits. At long range, you'd be better off using AP you'd almost certainly never hit anything at maximum range unless your target's mental model is sleeping at the bridge or is a battleship or carrier. Keep her wriggling to throw your enemies' aims off. However, the playstyle is not for everyone, so I'll try to give a short, general explanation about her. I charge aggressively at the opponent, and then make a fighting withdrawal back to the enemy lines once I've made contact and gathered intelligence about the enemy.
