It's amazing how effective they are, considering how most battleships are usually one trick ponies, relying on their main guns, preferably at range. I can just imagine the expression on the enemy's face as he emerges from behind an island and gets a faceful of torps from a batlleship. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, except the few of us that remember BB's have HE that can disable/destroy torpedo tubes, especially at point blank and knowing how/where to aim. Had someone do that against my Bismarck yesterday/day before, knew they were setting up the ambush, charged them, they go for the ambush, and instant the tubes are hit table, fire, destroy them out right, watch him turn to try and use the other side, turn to get rear turrets angled, destroy the others, and enjoy ALL the salt as my secondaries now pound them into dust as well as the main battery.

They forget Tirptiz and Mutsu have them, too. Soon, Kii will be with us with even more torpedoes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
