There was actually a Spanish dreadnought named Alfonso XIII, of the España Class. Although in reality it only displaced 17000 t, not 90000 lol

He did that TWICE. TWICE

Yes!

Which one?

How did he destroy the rudder with a hit amidships damn

and only 2 survivors..........if even for that cruiser!

thats what i call a thanos shell

If we get aa in this game Alfonso will be even more deadlier With radar and other equipments the aa’s will fill the skies with bullets with the accuracy of a sniper rifle

There aren't any AA guns in this game nor aircraft... :/

@@thebushwolf710 There will be, according to a post on Steam Forums, but it won't be a thing on release day either. My assumption is that we're getting them by 2021

@@hanswang7891 Still, no need to think about that if its going to be something in the far future. But if that still is the case than I cant wait for Aircraft carriers :D

For the AA variant, just replace those 7" guns with 5" DP guns and give them VT fuze shells. Throw up an impenetrable wall of explosive death.

@@zuthalsoraniz6764 why not keep them as 7 inch and just make new AA ammo?

Brave Italians sailing to their death, to try and save the Italian navy from the mighty Alfonso XIII o7

But all those cannons would ruin the beautiful lines and weigh them down when they need to run away or switch sides

Well of course, all those cannons would just ruin the beautiful lines and weigh them down when they might need to run away or switch sides

@@weldonwin Italy did not switch sides, it's a common misconception. I can explain it to you if you want.

@@anzacwashington7050 Firstly, suing for peace is different from surrendering. Secondly, whilst it is true that the Head of State did not change, you have to remember that Italy was a parliamentarian monarchy, where power was held by Parliament and the PM, not the Monarch. Therefore, to state that the political line of Italy should have stayed the same after Mussolini was overthrown would be erroneous, as it would imply that it was decided by the Monarch and not by Parliament. Lastly, while it is true that the Italian army was badly equipped in both world wars, I feel like its contribution is highly underestimated, as the British like to do with other nations. If on one hand the Italian army was outmatched by the Austrian one in ww1, on the other hand it still managed to hold a large portion of the Austrian army and four German divisions, which after 191ü could have been used to break the Western front open (there were only 10000 americans there at the time, the main body of reinforcements was yet to come). As for ww2, the fact that the Maori battalion was outnumbered is of marginal importance to me: the British troops on the African front were equipped with heavy artillery and tanks which the Italian troops were not capable of piercing, thus making the Italian numerical advantage useless. On the other hand, Italian and German troops were badly supplied, especially in regards of Rommel's Afrikakorps, as most supplies were directed towards the Eastern front. Italian troops were still capable of proving themselves fighting, like in the battle of El Alamein, where the division "Folgore" was finally destroyed after 3 days of combat, during which the soldiers hid in the sand with Molotov's and jumped on Matildas passing by to blow them up, or in the Easter front, where the mountaineer divisions (Alpini) were encircled by the Russians and fought their way out of the pocket.

@@anzacwashington7050 Italy was very much not an absolute monarchy, be it as a constitutional one (Statuto Albertino) or with parliament overruling the king, but the decision were very much not taken by the king alone. For example, prime Minister Giolitti before ww1 had a plan to prevent Italy from entering the war: Parliament would rule that Italy was to stay neutral, the king would abdicate (so as to be freed from the promise made in the London Pact of 1915), thus making the new king free to let parliament do its bidding. As for Italian leadership in ww2, I do agree that it was bad, save from a few cases, as most generals were nominated not because of their skill, but their loyalty to the regime.

I don't think more AA guns will help. Though, maybe we can have Yamatos protected by two Shinano!

@@ziavanzaa.r6335 that was literally her biggest weakness. She didnt have any mid range AA guns so there was a window where aircraft attacking the ship were basically safe.

@@MudkipsAreEpicWin yes, but then we have to accept the fact that, even with more amount of AA guns, the ones shootings are still human. Not fire systems. And, no matter how many amount of AAs, she was still swarmed with a lot of planes that a gunner could not handle. AA probably won't matter, but air superiority will be the winning game.

Yep, imagine the amount of AA fire this ship, but with every single secondary slot housing a triple 5" turret firing proximity-fuzed HE shells would put out. Not to mention the insane number of Bofors guns that would fit on her!

@@ziavanzaa.r6335 I never said more AA, I said a better set up. She still had a pretty fearsome AA setup, not to mention AAA was never very effective at actually shooting down planes to begin with. Sometimes you get a hit, usually it just scares the fuck out of the pilot, which can cause them to miss their drop.

Those destroyers held off until the main battle force was destroyed, instead of closing it for a torpedo attack. And using 12 cm guns at 10 km range? Against that monster? Close in for the kill, overwhelm the defences. That was a lemming train of World of Tanks proportions.

57thorns that's the way I'd play it. Hell if the torpedoes didn't hit I'd order the DD's to ram it. I'm probably going to lose them anyway so may as well

spacewolf6 Panic does that to even the stoutest captains, after all, something you never met, Firing shells so heavy that the “Battleships” of your convoy are almost detonated with HE shells....terrifying.

I understood that reference

@@firestorm165 I don't think they would get that close. He was killing everything within 10km with one salvo. Five DDs are not bullrushing that beast for a ram, they won't last. .the only chance they had was torps at maximum range....but even if you slowed down the bear, his fire control and 18's just ruin your day

Imagine a campagin where naval airpower never took off. So with CV's being primarily recon platforms, imagine what the secondary batteries are gonna be like.

@@Sorain1 well the Battleship would remain as the heart and shield of the fleet. They would just get bigger and bigger

Makarov The Plat Arch warhammer did a couple of vids on UA:D and they were great to watch as well.

I blame him for my utter obsession with history today

Tortuga's videos on this and Rule the Waves 1 and 2 are really good.

Who was it?

If it becomes too complicated then it'll become unplayable, as other games have become. I hope some things are kept simplified so you can hop in and play without too much stressing. But yeah, you're correct that a ship without a crew is just a husk.

@@ArcticuKitsu I agree that if it would be too complicated it won't appeal to the casual player, but I am sure they can make a very simple manpower factor like ships in total war games

HULL BREAK.

Secondary towers don't weigh that much. Besides, the ship was perfectly balanced now

Also u could of put the funnels behind the second tower if u put that behind the main tower so the smoke from the funnels don’t get in the way

Wait till they shoot the positron shock cannons at the enemy fleet

Agreed. In this game I've had the AI just run away from me one too many times. That's why I lean towards building faster battleships.

@@UtterlyShagged If you were close enough you would die from the shockwave, if not, your eardrums won't be feeling too good.

It does dosnt it? AoN adds weight only to the deck armour, while turtleback adds to the entire armour belt.

Yes I could have, but that would mean 1 less gun in broadside firing.

Something that seems weird to me is that the number of guns in a turret doesn't look like it changes the size of the turret. It changes it's displacement and cost, but that's it, having a single or double gun turret takes up the same deck space as a triple gun turret.

Stealth17 Gaming oh I see
