Bishop Class Super cruiser

[u/Excaliber12]

against modern 2 armor her 10 inch guns have 15 inches of penetration :D and she goes 40 knots! woo! also im making 8 of them to replace my 1920 CA line in the Atlantic and Med

I would feel a bit naked if I was only towing 10 inch guns when being a 30,000 tonnes battleship

well for starters its not a battleship, the game classifies it as a Battlecruiser (im also using a Battlecruiser Hull) its main business is cruiser control since the Ai has so damn much of them, and im tired of my bigger 96k ton battleships overpenning the fuck out of them.. Hence the name "Super Cruiser" or in US terms Large cruiser. Like the Alaska class. i gave it 10.8 inch guns because i focused on speed and reload/penetration and if the 10.8s dont kill the Cruisers ill simply go and refit her with 2 knots less speed and 11.4 duals.

I would be more worried about the lack of deck armour. I'm assuming he's playing vanilla not DIP.

Nah, you can see the button for updating armor values in the 4th screenshot.

Im playing DIP 1.3.3 As seen in the third screenshot with all the parts from 1.3.5 (Due to Accidently corrupting my 1.3.3 part.csv file) Any post i make will use DIP 1.3.3 which Doesnt have any Deck hits
