![]() ![]() In 1935, Germany signed a naval treaty with Britain which permitted it to build two carriers of just under 20,000 tons each. (American Essex-class carriers of the era were rated at 150,000 HP and carried almost 100 aircraft.) History Her propulsion was vastly overpowered: 200,000 HP for a ship with 40 airplanes. Her aircraft were half-hearted modifications of land-based planes, most of which never reached production. She was outfitted with six-inch guns that had no business on an aircraft carrier, which were ultimately sent to Norway for coastal defense. In fact, I had little trouble citadelling anything I could get my planes to (which was a bit of a problem, as I was in a tier X game, but I could still do it).It was a ship that was filled with contradictions and compromises from the start. First dive bomber strike was a double citadel against a Pommern. ![]() Long story, short: I think your first suggestion is a no-go, your second suggestion probably won't happen, but your third suggestion definitely has my support.ĮDIT: I took my GZ out, and I found her rather comfortable to use. Also, I don't think GZ needs more armor because he has the most dangerous secondaries out of all tier 8 carriers. Probably the reason for the Parseval having better AP bombs is because his bombers are high-altitude bombers that have the reticle directly below the planes (which you can easily see if you tilt the camera). ![]() Going some checking, I can see that Graf Zepplin does fall behind his tech-tree counterpart, but he does better than Shokaku's stock bombers. The cruising speed of his Torpedo and Dive bombers are faster than all other tier 8 aircraft carriers' torpedo and dive bombers with the exception of Indominable's bombers.ĭon't take this to mean that GZ isn't suffering right now, he's been suffering since his release, and I do agree that it is past time that WG gave the GZ a once over and rebalance him to be more in line with what the other premium carriers can do. ![]() Now, what the GZ has right now are some seriously fast planes. Graf Zepplin doesn't have one because Graf Zepplin didn't have one. Max Immelmann has an icebreaker because it is a FDG hull. ![]()
