In World of Warships, Sevastopol appears as she should have been completed with the modified design (Project 69-I). The hull of both ships, completed at around 10% survived the war in relatively good shape and while there were considerations to complete them as aircraft carriers, the plans never went through. Sadly, with uncle Adolf starting Operation Barbarossa and as such, declaring war on the USSR, the turrets and guns were never delivered. Modifications obviously had to be made on the hulls that were already under construction. This modified design was called Project 69-I. As an emergency solution, the Soviets bought surplus 380 mm guns and turrets from the Germans. The problem is that the 305 mm turrets were well behind schedule while the hulls were already under construction. Initially, the Kronshtadt-class (Project 69) was meant to be built with three triple 305 mm turrets with two superfiring at the front and one at the rear. JMO.Sevastopol was the second ship of the Kronshtadt-class of battlecruisers from the Soviet Union. So, I think this ship will really come down to the map it is on as to how good you can expect to do most games. I should have had at least 3 more kills but those trolly guns (ie dispersion and pen damage) just were a big issue. Predictably I did poorly.Ģnd game was on Neighbors which is a good combo of open water and islands for a ship like Kron. The islands block tons of shots so unless there are a lot of BB's who stay out you don't get a lot of chances. The Cruiser's all run around inside the islands with their good maneuverability and kill each other and BB's/Kron are just too sluggish maneuvering to safely get in there. It is also not a good map for BB's and BB's pretending to be CA's like Kron. My 1st game was on Shatter which I just absolutely despise. It also seems, here early on anyway, that maps will play into it. I hope Kron is the same cause 750K FXP is a lot for a ship with guns that perform like Roma's (ie SUCK!). Had an awful time with those guns right at 1st but over time it radically improved and I now love the ship/guns. I "HOPE" this turns out to be a case like I saw with the T9 French BB Alsace. Have had 2 games so far and have to say it seems like a deceit overall ship BUT the guns seem to have horrible accuracy and the AP performance is lacking. So grabbed Kron this morning with the release of 7.5.
