If you’re that close to a Tirpitz, Scharn, Gnei, Kii, or Mutsu in any ship aside from a stealth DD then something probably went seriously wrong with your game plan

If you willingly get close to a torpedo carrying battleship you've done something wrong.

People know to run when I'm in either a Ginny/Tirpitz/Scharn and I type in :"Hoist the flag boys, we're going in!"

 

I love brawling in German BB's...LOVE IT

Some tend to forget my Kii has torps as they close in.  And suddenly BLAP!

Well it all depends.....

 

Both the Germans and Japanese have pretty strong torpedos, depending on the ship you are in, and the situation yes, a BB torpedo could take 50% of your HP and potentially sink you.

Hey. . . I *love* torping destroyers with my battleships!

 

Some of the most satisfying kills in the game, right up there with secondary kills from cruisers.

Yes it can depending on the type of ship you have and the tier. If a tier 5 cruiser is crazy enough to get close to a Scharnhorst, it can easily lose 50% of it's health with just one torp hit.

If you get very close to one of the torpedo carrying BBs with a destroyer or low tier light cruiser, yes. Yes, getting hit will cost you a lot of HP.

I fail to understand how this is a question that needs to be asked ...
