Player Opinion

Battleship - Kii

Pros:

• Incredible broadside firepower, with ten 410mm guns on 5 turrets.
• Unlike Amagi, Kii can launch 3 torpedoes per side for close range engagements.
• An AA suite comparable of American counterparts.
• Has both the strong AP and HE shells that Amagi has.
• More HP than her tech-tree counterpart.

Cons:

• Lacks the torpedo defense system of its sister ship Amagi.
• Sigma value of 1.7 is worse than Amagi's.
• Thin citadel plating and largely ineffective turtleback means that she will be citadelled with ease, brawl only with extreme caution.
• Less torpedo protection than her tech-tree counterpart.
