Respublika - Tier IX Soviet Premium Battleship 1939

During the 1930s, the Soviet Union sought to modernize and expand its naval capabilities, dispatching delegations to several leading naval powers to seek assistance in the design and construction of modern warships. One such delegation visited the American naval architecture firm Gibbs and Cox, which produced several proposals for the Soviets, including Project 1058.4. This design notably featured an aft-mounted quadruple 406 mm turret. However, following the Soviet invasion of Poland, all American assistance to the Soviet naval program came to an end.

Key Features and Battle Tips

Key Features

• Strong armor with very little superstructure, but exposed citadel.
• Access to Combat Instructions that improve her AP damage and reduce consumable cooldowns.
• Soviet dispersion pattern: accurate at close range but less so at longer range than average.
• Short firing range with poor ballistics.
• Fast rudder shift time, with average turning radius.

Battle Tips

• Take her in for close-quarters combat, where her dispersion is at its best and outperforms most other battleships.
• She has a great rudder shift time, letting you maneuver quickly to bring all her guns to bear before angling back up ahead of return fire.
• Respublika's resilient, properly angled armor racks up potential damage easily, and the lack of a superstructure means you can bow-tank while ricocheting most incoming shots.
• Her high detectability is a double-edged sword, letting you draw attention and soak fire to charge your Combat Instructions faster, though you'll likely be spotted during your maneuvers.
• Mind, though, that her side armor is weak and her citadel is highly exposed.
• Close in with the enemy while charging Combat Instructions, activate it for a powerful salvo, bring all guns to bear, then angle to the enemy before your broadside can be punished. And as the battle goes on—rinse and repeat!
