She is the stuff of legends and surrounded by so much hype and misinformation to make it difficult to separate fact and reality. If the accuracy of main artillery is improved within 10 km, as in the case of Soviet battleships, the uniqueness of close combat will become clear.It is pretty low tier... And wargaming does hate to buff german bbs lolLol for good reason every other ship is better... the scharnhorst is my most played ship and I love her but the Bismarck I just can’t do it she sits in port just like my IowaI don’t have her, but I do see Bismarck players get nuked at the start of the match quite oftenLol yes I rarely see a Bismarck player at the top of the leaderboardsI unlocked the Bismarck when it was released.

Sucks to grind up to a ship all for it to be garbage considering the circumstances and I haven’t seen any planned buffs for her in the patch notes.
As a german I take some offense on this incomplete (and by suggestion incorrect) depiction of history. For a start, she had the same number and calibre of guns (with modern shells to boot, no more Jutland shatters), secondly in places her armour belt was thicker than Bismarck's was. Is it the same on pc?Press J to jump to the feed.  Well I've made post after post about Royal Navy ships being nerfed to death before getting released, Had a melt down or two about the new RN Heavies Including the Cheshire even talking to the WG staff about why they do it, The comment I made was a light hearted dig at WG about how they treat the Royal Navy lines. Bismark it destroyed a World War 1 Battle Cruiser then got sunk but it does get the WG love, I just feel for the crews sent to fight in inferior ships by those who should know better  Having turtleback citadel armor isn’t a license to sail broadside to enemies. Here, in World of Warships: Legends, these 2 ships were lacking armor and accuracy before.


think again, because two harder to balance things exists; Aircraft Carriers and Submarines. - Without scuttling it is believed it could have taken up to a day for Bismarck to eventually sink But London saw to it that it's legend was cut short. There are low chances that you’ll ever punish a broadsiding battleship and cruiser.And why does the tirpitz not have the extended secondary range like bismarck? Anyway, the fate of Hood was already dicided the moment she left Scapa Flow, and nobody could have done anything to prevent it (outside of not sending Hood in the first place or going back in time and refitting her), and that was due to, not really a design flaw, but more of the result of not upgrading her, that being that her deck armour was designed to be able to withstand WW1 German AP fuses, which were much shorter then the WW2 ones, and in fact, if Bismarck had used WW1 fuses, Hood's deck armour could have been fine, however, the fuses Bismarck used were much longer, with the result that the shells went straight through Hood's deck, into her magazine and detonating it. Don't miss the premiere of one of our most highly anticipated episodes of Naval Legends! The point is, these were defined terms and not mystical titles conferred by secret and arcane rituals (unlike 'Commodore', or 'Prime Minister'...).

Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts I have made several claims to WG officials about Bismarck's lack of firepower. I'm honeslty perfectly fine with paper ships, as long as they are balanced. It was insane how many shells were in the air.

Of course if you're wanting to talk marginal cases, Renown might be a better candidate as she was (ultimately) much closer to the border between the two types. What ultimately give Bismarck the killing blow were the Swordfishes that torpedoed her and broke her rudder (also reducing her speed), reducing her into a sitting duck, and against so many ships, it was just a matter of time before she sunked. S* talks about Bismarck, but suggest to do a Naval legends about her sister ship! Some people consider them battleships and others (me included) consider them battlecruiers; but still, it's very difficult to decide what is a battlecruiser
