Mine action guns on King George V? Also, no torps tubes option :-(

[JJDOU3D]

I saw in the British Battleship sneek peak that they have written Mine action guns instead of Secondary guns on King George V. Is it a new gameplay feature involving mines? It would be fun.

 

Also, too bad there are not one British battleships with torps tubes option. It would have been fun like it is with the German battleships line (Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, Tirpitz) and Mutsu BB on JPN line.

It's probably a translation error from Russian. There's a number of Russian terms for ordnance that when translated to English don't match what the English term for the same equipment is.

Mine Action guns is a bad translation from Russian meaning "Dual Purpose and/or Secondary guns"

None of the British BB's had deck mounted tubes.

gnei is one of the FEW if only one battleship with deck mounted torpedoes,the ship was designed as a raider so i think that suited him well.

This. Plus even if they did, they were not rotating mounts and therefore would not be usable.

Gneisenau and Scharnhorst both had them fitted for their Channel Dash. They were taken from Leipzig and Nürnberg as I recall.

 

Tirpitz also had them fitted for commerce raiding as well.

I was just throwing Scharn in for good measure, you just said Gnei so I was making sure.

Rodney had torps(but isn't in game). It was also the only battleship to hit another battleship with a torpedo.

NelRod had submerged tubes. Most battleships built up to about 1920 or so had submerged tubes.

i don't think fixed torpedo tubes with no room to move would be "fun".

The Mutsu's torp firing angles are extremely bad.

But nice feature when it happens to be the good moment.
