I just watched the video, and that was a real loving spectacle. Early in the match there were some great images of shots coming from over the horizon and straddling the ship in focus. Great final no-range brawl and a real nail-biter of an ending.

Gort posted:No belt armour... seventeen inch guns... in 1876... Looks like the guns fired once every eight minutes. That might have posed a slight problem in conjunction with the "compartments are enough to protect the belt" defense philosophy. I guess you shoot once, run away, and shoot again if they chase you?

It was a wild ride and glad we got something to simulate the titan slug fests of late Battleships, thanks for the thread.

Gort posted:No belt armour... seventeen inch guns... in 1876... Those guns are a lot less ridiculous than you might think. Remember that this predates the invention of smokeless powder (Poudre-B was in 1885, iirc), so there's a lot less energy involved than you're used to.

Generating your own smokescreen is a novel defense tactic. And hopefully, by the time reloading is done, it will have cleared.

That's not the same video as far as I can tell, and this probably isn't a super novel concept.

It's a shame we never got a Cauldron of Doom featuring the Yamato and five Scharnhorsts
