      @@skullfracture3870 2 years? I thought even with no boosts a bureau ship takes less than a year, unless you don't play all that often. In any event, welcome to the world of overmatch and troll dispersion. Yami is one those ships that exemplifies "floating slot machine", she's either a monster or a joke depending on your rng.
      And I will say too that Montana is more consistent, Iowa with better armor/hp and an extra turret pretty much sums her up. As a result, she takes a little more thought than Yami but can be more effective in some situations.

    I’ve said it on previous videos, and I’ll say it again, I love my BB Colorado (it’s my home state) and it’s my tank when I need it for earning credits. It’s slow, but it’s already agile and rudder shift upgrade makes it hard to hit when kiting, and makes it easier to hit one target, or multiple targets while playing throttle jockey and angle king. I use Sims for accuracy on that ship, I use Sim on most of my ships, but if feel like brawling I have Lee as a backup.

    I got the Massachusetts as my first gxp ship and I am happy with it. no point to even try Alabama.
    as you say, it is accurate enough to be consistent. + the option for secondaries.
    at the moment, I am close to getting my first gxp t8. I think I ll go for the Elbing as I enjoy dd's/cruisers more then BB's.

      Elbing is a savage cruiser without a citadel. The torps are cheeky as they relod quickly, and the low speed can catch people sleeping. And those guns are dirty. Throw the pan asian ap angle commander and those thing pen at some stupid angles. And then there is the defence... no words are needed. 33k health is so useful.

    Alabama: Accurate guns✅, better camo (opinion)✅, High risk of catching fire ❌
    Massachusetts: brawl build=extra heals( optional ) ✅+ accurate secondaries deal with pesky destroyers ✅. Trolly main gun accuracy ❌
    massa holds an advantage over her sister Alabama with secondary armaments, survivability. at the end of the day RNG is opposite of guaranteed. Having your ace be under the mercy of fortune can bring disappointment at times.
    I have both and I like them equally.

    I’ve got a question for you, Spartan (or anyone else who may know). Please don’t come at me if this is a stupid question, but I have William Sims as the commander for my American BBs bc I run an accuracy build. I don’t have most of the AL commanders to use for inspirations but I’ve always run Cunningham for better grouping. Then I saw that Angelo Iachino also buffs grouping. I’ve run them both and I feel like it does end up putting more shells on target, but I didn’t know if that was just me or if you can actually stack the grouping by running both of them.

    • @SpartanElite43

    Definitely Big Mamie for me. I don't have Haruna, so I can't enjoy the absolute max range on my secondaries, but they still reach out to 10.5km. 9 16" super heavy US AP shells and 10 5" guns per side. Get that secondary booster running and gods help whatever poor red ship is in range. Even better when you've got both sides going. Can't tell you how many times those secondaries have saved my bacon. Looking port and suddenly see my starboard secondaries start going off... oh, hello little DD. Hope you enjoy the welcome package I'm sending :).

    @177SCmaro 3 месяца назад +1

    While there are lots of great ships in the game, I prefer ships that really existed so that's what I like to collect (at least, the free to play ones) so I ended up with both Massa and Bama and it's sorta like two different flavors of ice cream, both are great, it's just a matter of what mood I'm in. I will say my playstyle tends to favor Alabama but since I got both I play them about the same amount of time.
    imo I do notice that Alabama accuracy, esp at long range, relative to Massachusetts but I also notice those secondaries on Massa when dd screws up and gets spotted.

    I feel like you favored the Massachusetts in this video, talking nore about its upsides and the bamas downsides. Nearly ignoring the bamas better traits like the better torpedo reduction on bama, the better concealment. The better rudder shift, better turret rotation, and better range. Alabama is better in all od the aspects I mentioned, though not by much, this is far better better than 2km secondaries.

    • @SpartanElite43

    I have the Massachusetts and I have used secondary builds and range/accuracy builds and absolutely love the Massachusetts but Alabama overall is better. The consistency of accuracy is supreme and if you are accurate there isn't much you can do to stop it. Massachusetts main guns without accuracy build is below average. It's absolutely horrible that Massachusetts without range build only has 16.9 km range. Which in a lot of these open maps is brutal to get close. I'm actually about to get Alabama but I'm deciding between the USSR barigton the azsuma or the Flandre. Still deciding.

      @@SpartanElite43 I do too on my Massachusetts I use the secondary build and even switch from accuracy mod or secondary mod for the most part I happen to like both as I fight in both styles. But I've noticed when you are playing a good Alabama captain the accuracy and power is really hard to stop. In close though the Massachusetts is absolutely brutal especially bow tanking 1 or 2 BBs who don't over match and you can do some wild drive bys in the Massachusetts but it's hard to do when your team sucks and leaves you and the enemies always running away. You can't run from the Alabama even at far range. Well if the captain is good anyway. Though I do like the Massachusetts if done right even with a range build you can get the secondaries out to 9.8 or so if I remember correctly which is pretty cool considering.

    Alabama gets more citadels....massy gets more damage on salvos.

      Considering the ballistics is the same on both they are both very capable of citadels... just depends on your build obviously Alabama is usually a Sniper build so it will usually land more shells more often than a Secondary Build Massa but if you refer back to the New Jersey at the start you can see that Massa is fully capable of Deleting anything just like Alabama
