I will say it's just lazy at this point, it takes you 5 seconds to google translate and click voice how to pronounce it. It's so hard to watch when he keeps butchering names of locations you're from. Instead of talking about plating for 5 mins just learn to pronounce 1 word for 30 seconds...
@@domidomi917 Yes but Marseille it's essentially just the middle and last bit, and it's easy to pronounce for an english speaker. Chinese to english is actually difficult.
Took me a couple of battles to be more comfortable with sort of ignoring the third turret in a lot of situations and maintaining my angle, then whipping it into play after enemy shoots and getting those big consistent chunks of damage. I loved the Brest especially in the 1v1 mode where despite not having torps, relied on speed and citadels to win almost 90% of my games. Way I’d sum up these boats is “strike fast, strike hard”
Some observations about this line, especially Marseille, they seem to have exceedingly good maneuverability for their size. I don't just mean speed, they seem to turn very well. I see alot of people also underestimating the amount of lead they need even when they [Marseille line] don't try to dodge, so they just miss entirely. Second, their guns sound incredibly loud for their size, I remember taking Cherbourg out and being surprised at how loud the main battery was. This isn't a complaint, just thought it was odd that the 305s and then the 330s sounded so intimidating. Lastly I think if Marseille had 2x4 330s it probably would've been too strong, the 3x3 makes it show more side if you want all 3 to fire. The line seems really good at flanking for support, and surpise pushes. I'm anxious to get through Cherbourg to it.
I free XPed my way out of Cherbourg to get the Brest. My first game with the Brest was a 176k DMG, x5 kills (Kraken), High Caliber and Devastating Strike game. I anticipated that Cherbourg was weird and that Brest would be a huge upgrade over it, and that's definitely the case.
Yeah Cherbourg can definitely be a slog at times, even when I was running max eco boosts the grind still felt a big long. It doesn’t help that you have a battleship’s reload speed and can only buff it to a single salvo at regular heavy cruiser reload by way of a gimmick. The only reason i still have her in port is because i got the perm camo for her, she has a decent profile for a port queen, tho.
I can get down with the french frontal firepower look but idk about the st. Vincent, the bridge smack dab in the middle of the turret layout is odd to me and imo it just makes the rest of the ship aft of the x turret seem to be empty superstructure space. Certainly gives it an unique silhouette, ill give it that, but i just don’t believe it’s possible to compare the designs of say an Iowa to the st. Vincent and have Vincent come out on top lol.
I was thinking about it and wg should do something with the game engine when you are using your main secondary guns as aa defense they should shoot at the planes also … but I was mainly thinking if you did like a double aa sector they would do extra damage to planes but not be able to be used as secondary on surface ships. So you have to choose where they are putting there firepower either surface or air and air would give aa a boost
Yes. Sealord's position is vague on the line between large cruisers and battlecruisers, but as battlecruisers generally use the same (or slightly smaller) armament as battleships and the Marseille obviously does not carry 431mm guns, this is not a BC.
@@sealordmountbatten you know the answer to this as well as I do, on four counts: German battlecruisers historically had guns smaller than their equivalent class of BB, the Scharnhorsts were designed with the role of merchant raider in mind but also to fight enemy BBs, their armour was as strong as contemporary BBs, and they were intended for the conversion to 15" guns. Scharnhorst vs Duke of York was considered a fair fight, BB on BB, and I don't believe contemporary historians ever refer to Scharnhorst as a BC.
@@sealordmountbatten Scharnhorst had the Armor of a Battleship, was planned to get the 380mm guns of Bismarck & Co, AND was classified as a Battleship by the Kriegsmarine. The French CBs are classified as "Super Heavy Cruisers" not Battlecruisers, have heavy cruiser armor, and Battleship guns. The role of those super (or large) cruisers, was to destroy enemy cruisers, and fight enemy super cruisers. Meanwhile the role of a battlecruiser was to fight off enemy light forces and then join into the battleline. (this is a very oversimplification) PS: sry for any errors in my english, I am from germany and not a native speaker
@@waverleyjournalise5757 my point being that you could argue one way or another as many have on many a forum about what exactly a “Battlecruiser” is. Alaska for example, ticks every check mark on the sheet for a Battlecruiser, but nope. USN classified her as a large cruiser. My general definition for a Battlecruiser is some type of a ship with larger than normal cruiser guns (usually 280mm+) with slightly to significantly less armor than a Battleship that has been sacrificed for speed.
It performs very well in CBs. Was able to bow tank surprisingly well. If you show broadside and you get hit in the rear it hurts but if you stay angled or bow in you will survive. I really enjoy the ship.
kinda has izumo vibes imo, the brest looks so damn good tho i wonder why they dint keep up more of the same from the t8&9 thank god tho that its a decent ship, its the only t10 i have any amount of shits to give about, the t8 is IMO the best operation ship you can choose, if you go for a mobility built. so grinding for the t9 and t10 is inevitable, its also the only ship line i can play pretty damn decent in somehow, i can get good score with the t8 in uptier pvp surprisingly
You can tell who the new people to the channel are when they are correcting SLMB's pronunciation of ships. Everyone else gave up a loong time ago. 🤣
WeeGee can't even pronoun their ships so it's a given by this point,lol 😂
I'd say the same for other channels (as well as Mountbatten's) on the "pan-asian" names, never bothered to correct anyone

@@taserrr in all fairness, for most non-native speakers it will be hard to pronounce, say Chinese names correctly, but yes one could try

It's one FAST large cruiser. It's terrifying for the DDs to see the Marshy just chasing them down with 9 guns to bear and hydro activated.
For people wanting to pronounce this one correctly just say it like you would say "Marss ey".
Don't ask how I know, I live there.
I think the confusion comes from "Versailles" and how anglophones read words. They are missing the ai vs ei and how that changes pronunciation.
I love playing a game of WoW and having you talking in the background :)
I do the same thing. I never have the volume up when playing. Always a video playing in the back ground.

Powerful cruiser. It's T8 and 9 counterparts are quite like it. I'm saving creds for the Brest rn since I played so much Cherbourg in the early access
arent they Large Cruisers (CB) and not Battlecruisers (BC)

Marseilles is pronounced "Mar-say". Just so you know. Have a great weekend! It's a city in France.

Just started Brest
Isn’t it like 5 AM where you are?
4am actually

You have to wait from May to July to have your ac fixed? how can they take that long ?🤣
I would have gone with rudder shift.
I'm glad your AC is finally fixed!
It's "Marr-say."
cool. Is it not Mar-Say? not Mar-Sigh... :~) Ignore message lol, hadn't finished watching yet, DOH!!! :~(
REALLY REALLY bad pronouncing
like "Massai"
Trash tier ship quite frankly no place for this trash in the game when better ships exist
