Battleship

It appears the BB is still a Cruiser . The ship looks the same size as the CA. Will there be a change. Will the range be extended for the 16" guns.

There is a new Iowa class battleship object with it's own 3D art that has 16in battery's which will sink a CV with 3 salvo requiring a 30 sec reload period. We tested it in the alpha and until recently I had two in my offline gunnery terrain for testing. When it is hit it lights up like the CV does. This makes me think it will be introduced with it's own task force of support destroyers.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

I hope they toughen it up and make it the centerpiece of a task force and make the CV respawn every 15 minutes or so like a regular hangar.
