      Also just like Yorktown(and maybe Enterprise), Bismarck being kind and loving could be attributed to the stresses of warfare, and willing to let out some love she cannot express on the battlefield. Arguably a desire to protect the innocent.

    Bismarck being a downgrade compared to Tirpitz stat wise does make sense historically, since Tirpitz is basically an upgrade to Bismarck, including some fixes to problems like cannon placement and a better radar, upgrades to parts like the armor near the top and additions like torpedoes.
    I also love how Bismarck is basically a buff mad lad to all German ships, matching how while she was afloat she was regarded as a symbol of the German’s engineering prowess and naval power. Even how she basically needed the almost all of the British ships nearby to sink her might have been a testament to her strength as a symbol.

    Bismarck is a well designed "general" character imo. She provides buffs to her allies but doesn't rely on them to not be useless. She carries KMS theme of her being best while working with other KMS units. I find this theme amazing and impleneting it in gameplay makes KMS fleets unique and let them shine in their own way.

      @@kysforreal123 Depends on how you define tanky. Both Yamato and Iowa had greater displacement and protection and would therefore easily be considered "tankier" by any definition imo. Littorio offers very similar displacement with likely better protection (only "likely" because the Littorios had a rather exotic armor scheme that practically never saw its intended use so it's harder to guess whether it would've worked as intended). Then there's South Dakota and King George V with a significantly better armor scheme, but a much lower displacement.
      Bismarck (or at least her hull) could definitely take significant punishment, but it's questionable to call her the tankiest when even some lighter ships had better armor protection. When it comes to titans like the Yamato and Iowa class, it's very hard to argue that Bismarck could take as much punishment as them, considering they didn't just have a better armor layout, but also displaced more.

      yeah 155 is cl lvl guns. anything in the 150s are cl calibers, 203s are heavy and anything 140 and less are dds. 283s can be either heavy cruiser or bb depending on the model, 310s are heavy cruisers sepcific to 1 cruiser and anything bigger than that of bb guns.
      My personal favorite for bismarck is the twin tbkt ap gun... accurate, decently fast firing with fast shell velocity, considering the range it has to cover velocity and accuracy are a must if you want the secondaries to be useful on biscuit.

    and btw one more thing, if you are playing WoWs, the bismarck has been buffed the dispersion of main battery guns and maximum dispersion for secondaries, has been increased.

    Bismarck has been my favorite ship so far (only competitors would be z23, Roon and Belfast... but they're still a bit behind). She's been my cornerstone for Roon grinding and is still my number one choice for siren hunting. She's my first maxed out lvl 120 ship with fully levelled equipment. she can "solo" some of the daily quests too (poor scharnhorst, eating 120k damage in one salvo most not be pleasant).
    I also really like her design and personality. She's a great ship and a great wifu. German engeneering at its best :P and her theme (from sabaton) really does her service :D
    now, if only the event her sister and graff zeppelin stars in would come back so that I can finally nail my kms fleet together.

Comparing with all other battleships, there is huge amount of debuffs ( - 35% dmg, -20% efficiency, only 2 shots against 3 for another backline defenders), that destroying her defender capabilities. And what worse, for those huge attack range there is only one weapon, that have optimal spread to inflict damage at all.
    3) Iron blood faction have one of the most beast and monstrousity vangard at whole game, consisting of Z-class destroyers. Do you ever try to combine Z1, Z23 and Z46?

In PvP The enemy Vanguard is under constant attack from my Vanguard and 2 BB secondaries. Sure at reduced damage, but BB secondaries are no joke with their FP so the loss of damage is like having 5 vanguard ships protecting your backline.

  • @bahumat9853
    @bahumat9853 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ah, yes, the mighty Bismark. The great part about her is despite the limited NUMBER of backline ships Ironblood has, you still have access to a more defensive lineup (Graf/Bismark/Tirpitz) where you don't have to worry about suicide ships murdering the main fleet as well as a more offensive Carrier lineup. Though, I oathed both the Bismark sisters so the carrier loadout rarely sees use for me.
    For frontline, I would not write off the non-research frontliners. Ironblood has access to good-to-decent destroyers, a reasonable CL lineup thanks to retrofits and reasonable CA lineup due to tankiness. A CA lineup from Ironblood is pretty good at just ignoring fire from mob fleets due to their defensive skill lineup, as well as their barrages. I have yet to get my Light Cruisers online, but Leipzig is a recent addition that buffs the other two retrofit CL's they have access to, so I am hoping they show some promise as Ironblood frontline farmers for Roon herself. With the help of upgraded Wolfpack uboats, they are looking quite good at mob clearing with good potential for some bosses.
    One thing to mention about ironblood is that EVERYTHING comes with torpedos in the frontline. This is a blessing and a curse, since you CAN get amazing alpha strikes but at the cost of gun damage compared to the FREEDOMLANDERS.

Bismarcks AA knocked their other aircraft out of the sky. Bismarck and Tirpitz both should have rather high AA, nearly Atlanta class level AA, to be more historically accurate. Tirpitz was under attack by high level bombers because the Royal Airforce didn't have anything that else that could survive long enough to do any bombing.
