I would be surprised if WG change the sigma of RN destroyer guns, there's not much room for improvement even if they did break with tradition. Similarly all cruisers get 2.0, except at high tiers where they get 2.05. I have seen some uninformed comments about how weak RN DD guns will be, and being a Gallant owner, have a pretty good idea of how the current 50-lb 4.7-inch shell works in the game.Īs far as I'm aware there's a problem with your premise of changing sigma in that all destroyers of all nations and tiers get 2.0 sigma. I invite discussion as the devs may actually see this thread at some pointĪt some point, War Gaming/World of Warships is going to add a line of Royal Navy destroyers to the game's tech tree, and some premiums. That means that every DD from Tier 8 up, and some single turret T6s and T7s which would show up in a split line at some point, will have equivalent hitting power and rates of fire of most of the USN DD line, barrel for barrel. This would include the Z, Ca and Cr DDs with single turrets, and the Battle and Daring classes. Ships equipped with the Mk XI 4.7-inch 62-lb guns ( L and M classes) which have powered twins, wilI have similar sigma to the earlier class with slighty greater hitting power and range. I expect the 4.5-inch 55-lb shell to closely match the 5inch/38 55-lb round very closely in performance, with perhaps a small range increase, with sigma equal that of the USN Sumners and Gearings. Emergency War flotillas, classes O to U, will match Gallant as they have the same guns. I expect the DDs equipped with Mk IX 4.7-inch-50-lb guns in twin turrets (Tribals and J,K and N classes) to have identical shell ballistics and range to Gallant with superior sigma (better fire control systems) and a slighly higher rate of fire with power ramming. I include, with attribution of source in the image, information on all RN medium-caliber guns used on WWII and early postwar ships we are likely to see in the game. I have seen some uninformed comments about how weak RN DD guns will be, and being a Gallant owner, have a pretty good idea of how the current 50-lb 4.7-inch shell works in the game.
