Why it is so ridiculously hard to cit even the most broadsided cruisers with them? They have some artificial crtippling?

Player description of problem:  "My Spanish ship is not scoring enough citadel hits"
After certified mechanic performs troubleshooting, their findings are:  "Could not replicate the problem."  😉

They don't have American Piercing shells, just normal AP?

Why is it so ridiculously hard to hit those Spanish cruisers with BB salvos?

they tend to have high shell speed with standar fuse time so may be is that.

Yes, but that doesn't explain the oddities.

Finished the T8. Now the Lucia y Anda

 

As for the comparison, nothing in particular. Just, lets say, normal cruisers.

The funny thing is they are ridiculously easy to citadel. Even little DD guns get some. I wonder why they often are showing broadside.

They might be easy to cit if you you could actually get a good hit on them. But they are tough to hit especially in a BB they seem very maneuverable.

Why is it so ridiculously hard to find any of those Spanish cruisers in the game?

I see them quite often in randoms in ties 5-8.

Played a few games with the Castilla in asymms. Seemed fine. Cruiser heavy bot lineups look juicy with it. Played 100+ games in it in randoms when it went live. Seemed fine. All the Spanish cruisers do well when given the opportunity to get some cits. They squishy though, quick but squishy.

Last screen w/ 4 cits only had 1 bot cruiser. I think all 4 cits were on NCs.

The concealment is just too bad.  Which wouldn't be too bad if the armor didn't actually get worse every tier from like tier 7.

Yeah, but that's the thing. Those 2 cits, in the screenie  were inflicted on da Izmail. While I couldn't the Chumpou, from absolutely ridiculous distances and angles , while shooting only AP at him. And this isn't some outlier event.

The 10 cit game I only shot at 5 bots. But all 10 cits were concentrated on the 3 cruisers. Maybe its the T9. Im watching the Texas & Washington game, but Ill try a few games in the Andulacia, I dont remember how it performed gun consistency wise when I played it in randoms.

Depends on the situation. That map, where Im sitting, the bots just drive straight into the cap. As a secondary BB it's an easy win position as you can hold/kill all of A & B almost solo. Good spot to test broadside firing, funny button included.

I guess we are proving OP wrong by shooting 2 tier lower bots in this thread.

I will step out.

You must be extremely crazy if you think cruisers are bad in this game.

These days, I find myself in the uncanny firefighter/carry harder role, with some babysitter accents. I mean... given the ship.  The Beegee's game is as much about Stayin alive as  it is about Keep'em alive so.......I have to be tactical if I don't want to waste my boosters....

What he meant was, that Wedgie think that cruisers suck. So they play the "lets progressively frakk up cruisers, so we can sell moar babbies" game.
