I would say: Italian/Soviet/French BBs, German /American Cruisers, Japanese/American/British DDs, and If I had to pick three, then Italian BBs, German Cruisers, British DDs.
So let’s release a crafty spread of exploding fish and avoid heavy counterfire while we’re at it. Sure, it’s a game and falls short of realism often, but tactically it emulates a destroyer’s role well. The game’s destroyers, the best examples of which made our list, show the many avenues of attack available to the brave captains in the dark days that peppered our 19th century. World of warships passionately emulates the potential of a 2000lb tube of doom swimming at 60knots. That’s roughly when torpedoes came into their own.
That simply means you could fit more guns, armor, and potential for aggression on a battleship.Īdmiring this discrepancy as a child I remember thinking, why even bother with the small ships? And I wasn’t the only one, that’s what many gruff sailers thought in the early 19th century.
An average mid-century destroyer displaces a meager 5000 tons of water, a battleship’s average displacement during WW2 was over 20000 tons. When you see a destroyer next to a battleship it’s a dwarfing site.
