World of Warships Blitz - German Battlecruiser "Prinz Rupprecht" review 

Yep, definitely carried that game, no pun intended

Sorry, I'll catch up on that in the next video - there's not much I have to say about the ships themselves that I haven't pointed out already. Schlieffen should be interesting :)

Odin has one big advantage - size. That thing is comparatively small, and pretty manoeuvrable. Still, Rupprecht & Schlieffen are great fun, the latter is a direct progression, so if you get along with one, you'll like the other.

That's my conclusion after pretty extensive testing. You can have great fun in these ships, but you've got to be ready to just write off some games where you don't get the chance to play them to their strength. If that sort of thing is frustrating, maybe not the line to play :)

I completely agree with you all of my German ships have dispersion and I can do better cuz you can kite not all the time you can brawl so it's better to have an accurate gun build

If you put dispersion in the first module, then don’t you think it makes less sense for you to play German BBs? 😂 Go play some Japanese and US battleships

Honestly, I'd say no. The dispersion module gives you 7% better precision, i.e. reduces the target ellipsis by a marginal amount. Even precise aim 1 gives you 20%, almost triple that. Combine that with the shotgun dispersion she has to begin with, the long reload, and the short range, you're never going to use this ship in a ranged duel, simply because pretty much everything you're facing in T10 can defeat you at range with ease. Another reason is that the dps she has at mid-range more than makes up for not landing a lot of shots at long range, but jockeying for position instead.

There's a Lego titanic? Sounds like something I need in my life :D

@@FunandGameswithTerry yes but it’s 630 USD. And it’s 1.3 meters long

No worries. I'd say you carried that game - not sure if you took out that Iowa with secondaries, but that was well played.

Yes, this has been bugging me as well. All guns sound the same, regardless of calibre, and torpedoes go "floomp" on impact. The audio definitely needs some love, we've pointed that out to WG before.

It's in the settings, switch the voice to "national"

I only use the bogue with torpedo bombers

Also I'm gonna test it on the rhein but I can't buy it

I've had flanking shots from an Iowa coming in from the left, and Baltimore can relatively easily kite away, while Shima is permanently undetected. In a Freddie, I _might_ have attempted to push into overwhelming opposition, but the BCs don't have to survivability to push.

@@FunandGameswithTerry you might've died with Glory

It's not a completely invalid point - you have to entertain yourself somewhat while the teams are jockeying for positions. In the BB line, you do that by using the mains and the precise aim (which has 3x the impact of the slot 1 module), until you spot an opening. In the BCs, you use the time to get somewhere where you can use the dps, while compensating for the armour / HP. But I'm willing to test that a bit more :)

No idea 😊

Believe me, I've tried - the first battle was pretty much the only T10 I got into. Maybe it's the time of day I'm testing, but there wasn't much T10 action on Asia. Schlieffen review coming out next week, and since that can't get into T8, there'll be some more of that. Also, I don't get embarrassed 😁

@@FunandGameswithTerry Cool , it's just that I got schlieffen from one free key, yeah i know it's crazy - so Ive confused as to which modules to keep and make these work in this meta! Just post as a standalone vid if possible Peace ☮️

Plans for next week (tentative) are a Schlieffen review and some testing around the dispersion module for slot 1. I don't think it's viable, but it's been a frequent comment. T9 and 10 seem to have armour that can at least somewhat hold up, but they're still ambush-brawlers. No good in a protracted firefight, and while it's tempting to use the steering mod, Schlieffen's layout actually isn't conductive to it. The secondaries only really work full broadside, so you have to use concealment to get into positions where you can exploit that.

I think it won't change things to be honest, but I might test that a bit more explicitly. The historical camo doesn't give dispersion, she doesn't get a precise aim skill, and the module really only adds 7%, which isn't an awful lot, if you're already starting out with a shotgun. Plus, even if you had the dispersion, she just doesn't have the range. I'm testing Schlieffen with a full secondary build atm, and the 150s aren't that far from the 420s in terms of range. These things are meant to be mid-range brawlers, and Schlieffen's armour actually can hold up quite well if you can avoid getting focused. They're situational ships. Some battles they'll work, others they won't. This is, to a degree, the case with the traditional German BB line as well, although they're easier due to the survivability - worst case, you push, do 100k damage, and then die, but leave an opening for your team. It's more pronounced in the BC line.
