Andrea Doria
Outlast the line on heals, not armor; commit to fights peers cannot sustain.
New Mexico
Hold the line bow-in; top-decile plate shrugs what peers can't crack while the team trades.
Queen Elizabeth
Burn the enemy line with improved-HE salvos, then heal through the return fire.
Tennessee
A bow-on anchor: thick plate eats incoming fire while the team trades from behind.
Colorado
Hold the line bow-in; top-decile plate shrugs what peers can't crack while the team trades.
Francesco Caracciolo
A brawler: close the distance and the secondaries work alongside the mains.
North Carolina
A bow-on anchor: thick plate eats incoming fire while the team trades from behind.
Florida
A jack-of-all-trades battleship; read the comp and pick anchor, brawler, or sniper.
Courbet
A bow-on anchor: thick plate eats incoming fire while the team trades from behind.
Iron Duke
Improved-HE guns farm fires and chip angled targets your AP can't crack; heals sustain the trade.
Giulio Cesare
No standout trait, so adapt: anchor mid-range, support a brawl, or snipe as the team needs.
Bayern
Built to brawl: the sloped belt bounces point-blank shells while secondaries work.
Gneisenau
Sloped armor bounces close-range shells; brawl with secondaries inside the citadel-safe band.
Nagato
Built to absorb; the HP bar holds a lane long after peer battleships fold.
Prinz Heinrich
Push into secondary range so the auto-battery adds to your main-gun damage.
Sinop
Built to absorb; the HP bar holds a lane long after peer battleships fold.
AL Queen Elizabeth
Improved HE means fires and chip damage on anything angled; heal back the trade.
West Virginia
Hold the line bow-in; top-decile plate shrugs what peers can't crack while the team trades.
