    i'm really enjoying this "vs 2024" series. I'd like to see how some of the tech tree ships hold up. Like the North Carolina, Petro, Montana, etc. Especially ships that you covered a long time ago that you considered good (like NorCal) to see if that opinion has changed.

      Yeah this is the exact thought I had when watching him shoot at the water line. I honestly go for mid/high belt even in higher caliber battleships cause I'm so tired of half the shells landing short when I do otherwise.

      100%. If you aim for upper belts on BBs with the Schmeckle, you'll get like ~20k damage salvos on them consistently. Not citadels necessarily, but consistent big salvos that you can pepper between all the fires you're setting. You only aim waterline for Cruisers, which you will absolutely smash with the 305s. The nice thing about the lower calibre too is that light cruisers like Jinan or Smolensk won't troll armour you, they'll just die. Mecklenburg is absolutely amazing at smashing DDs and Cruisers, which is honestly a lot more important than cits on BBs imo.
      Potato also kept shooting AP at stuff line the nose-in Burger, which is when he should've switched to HE and aimed for superstruture to set a million fires. Meckle has basically Conq/Vincent levels of fire setting ability.
      Mecklenburg is one of the most consistent BBs in the game, which makes her legitimately one of the strongest BBs in the game if you play to her strengths. That does make Gun Feeder mandatory to accomplish that, and Secondaries are a waste to build into :P

      I played Meck alot of times in Assym. Learned too that aiming for the upper belt is the way to go when dealing with BB's. I choose 15-20k salvo every 23 sec instead of trying to get cits.

  • @waverleyjournalise5757
    @waverleyjournalise5757 11 місяців тому +15

    I just can't unsee this, but in almost every game you're aiming for BBs' belt armour no matter the range as if you're a Slava. Outside 10km, RNG generally says no unless the ship you're shooting is known for having a weak armour profile.
    Also, on some ships the main belt counts as torpedo protection so that is again BB-thickness belt armour you're shattering against.

  • @kyrpajooseppi888
    @kyrpajooseppi888 11 місяців тому +22

    Michelangelo has a pretty troll citadel, so it was more about the armor profile than dispersion. Especially with lower caliber guns or bb's with short fuse you're unlikely to get many citadels even in good scenarios like in this vid.

    I have played the mecklenburg quite a lot and has done quite well with her, I average about 150k damage and 60 percent win rate on 140 games played, and most of them are solo games. Mecklenburg is one of my most consistent bb and I think that that is her biggest strength. I would say that her he is actually very strong, due to the cruiser dispersion and German quarter pen, it does consistent damage against bbs even from 20 km away despite the lower alpha damage, with alright fire chance. I would say she’s even more consistent than the British bbs at he spam when it comes to long range engagement. Her playstyle would be sitting back and spamming he at battleships in the early game, since she’s a lv 9 hull and would die very quickly if focused. But when it comes to late game she’s very impactful since she has secondary and torps for close range engagement and the German sloped armour allowing her to play more aggressive when needed. I’d say it is my favourite steel ship by far.

      I like her a lot, she is just very consistent. I probably overuse AP, but I do fairly well, I mostly see her as a pure dmg dealer and that is how I play her, mostly on the flanks or in the mid spamming ap at everything broadside or with a large superstructure, mostly long range, but as the game progresses I go closer and am more aggresive. I'd say PQ does a bad job at aiming, because a lot of time he could be doing 15-20k, but does like 5k because he shoots at the more armored parts.

    You were getting too greedy going for citadels on that Monty. The trick with consistent damage against BBs in Mecklenburg is to aim for the upper belt. You do significant chunk damage per shell, which combined with the accuracy and shell volume means very very bad things for your opponent. 15-25k per salvo isn't hard to get at all, even at range. Had one game where I met a Yamato coming around an island and got eight cits and another four pens to send him to port in one salvo.
    The shells aren't bad, per se, just need to learn how to use them.

She consistently vomits out damage, while having torps, turtleback, speed, AA, decent secondaries, etc. She doesn't have the alpha threat against BBs that a Monty has, certainly, but she's a much bigger threat to DDs and Cruisers than a Monty is, which are far more impactful ships to deal with than BBs.

    Russian Railguns are more exception than the rule, they have more penetration than some battleship caliber guns.
    most BB's at this tier have enough armor to shatter 15-16" shell at 16-18km, let alone 12" with nearly half the penetration, aiming for citadels against tier 10 BB's past 10km is no go

    Your issues with the 305's are your OWN issues due to the fact that despite knowing that they are 305's your expecting and play with them as if you are playing with higher caliber guns. As for that copium towards the Michelangelo salvo, that ship have a VERY troll citadel, so troll that I can go and say it's more troll then the HENRI's cit. 305's vs BBs, ALWAYS aim for the upper belt. As for the HE, the alpha may be "low" but the PEN and the fire chance with so many shells per salvo is disgusting to say the least. The AA is very strong too, t8 cvs tend to avoid Mecklens like it's the plague and some t10 CVs think at least twice before committing to you. You are right about the firing angles thou... Big weakness for sure as your "armor" tends to eat a sh*t metric ton of PEN dmg that your heal can't compensate. As for the torps, they are OK but only IF they are NOT destroyed by the 1st HE shell that lands near them...

Trying to citadel battleship and fail really doesn't prove anything. Also, Macklenburg has 16 guns with standard battleship cruiser dispersion and 2.05 sigma. If you are not satisfied with its accuracy, then there is literally 0 battleships you will ever be satisfied with, not even Thunderer or St. Vincent, both of them have worse sigma. If you focus on showing bad salvos wit this ship then you will have endless clips to show with any other battleships. Why even make video then? If I have to find one problem with PQ's channel that could hurt his viewership, it is his constant complaint about battleship accuracy even when talking about basically one the most accurate battleships in the game.
