Special

Giulio Cesare — Italian special premium Tier V battleship.

One of the three Conte di Cavour-class battleships was laid down in 1910. After World War I, Giulio Cesare underwent a complete modernization process. After her renovation, she served in World War II in the battle of Punta Stilo, in the hunt for Maltese convoys, and in patrol and escort operations. After the end of the war, she was handed over to the U.S.S.R. for reparations and received the name "Novorossiysk."

Giulio Cesare was first released for sale worldwide on 20 October 2017. She is no longer available to Purchase.

Player Opinion

Performance

Expanding the Regia Marina’s presence in World of Warships is Tier V battleship Giulio Cesare. Fans of Japanese Tier V battleship Kongo will find a lot to like about this sleek Italian capital ship.

Cesare features ten 320mm guns with decent dispersion and an above average sigma value for her tier, leading to a main battery that produces tight shell groupings. She also boasts a relatively high speed — only slightly slower than Kongo — as well as decent AA and armor protection. Subsequently, Cesare straddles the line between battleship and cruiser: faster than most of the BB's at tier, but far more durable than the notoriously easy-to-kill Tier V cruisers. This allows her to utilize her speed to take on the battlecruiser role that the slower Tier V battleships are unable to fill. She has some notable deficiencies: her torpedo protection is weaker than most of her counterparts, her rudder shift time is on the slow side for the tier, and her health pool is relatively small. Still, she is a well-rounded ship overall and is comfortable to play for veterans of other mid-tier battleships.

Captains who enjoy a battlecruiser play style will enjoy the mix of speed and firepower that Giulio Cesare brings to the battle.

Pros:

  • Armor belt covers most of the hull, with much of it extending from stem to stern and her citadel is small and well armored, making it difficult to reliably hit.
  • Second fastest Tier V battleship at 27 knots.
  • Lowest detection range of all Tier V battleships at 13.3km. Can be reduced to as low as 11.9km with Concealment Expert.
  • Quick turret traverse time for a battleship. Guns have solid overall handling.
  • Decent anti-air defense, for her tier.
  • Decent rudder shift time, for a battleship

Cons:

Research

As a premium ship, Giulio Cesare doesn't have any upgrades to research.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for Giulio Cesare are as follows:

Upgrade Slot 3 allows players to mount AA Guns Modification 1, which puts out more flak from her medium- and long-range AA guns. Players may also choose to mount Secondary Battery Modification 1 : +20% secondary battery firing range. / -20% secondary battery dispersion. to increase the firing range and accuracy of the secondary battery, or Aiming Systems Modification 1 : -7% main battery dispersion. / +20% torpedo tubes traverse speed. / +5% secondary battery firing range. / -5% secondary battery dispersion. to further reduce dispersion for tighter shot groups. Although these options are viable, enemy aircraft will likely prove to be a more common threat, and the maximum dispersion is already low for a battleship.

Commander Skills

Like most battleships, Giulio Cesare benefits most from commander skills that maximize her survivability. This is doubly important for her given the (small) size of her health pool. Her AA is also worth investing some skill points and modules in.

Consumables

Giulio Cesare can equip the following consumables:

Camouflage

As a premium ship, Giulio Cesare comes with Default permanent camouflage and a set of permanent combat bonuses.

Signals

Giulio Cesare captains should focus on survivability as the primary goal of its signal loadout. Credit and experience signals may also be taken, but as Giulio Cesare is a mid-tier ship she does not see as much experience and credit gains compared to her higher tiered counterparts. For boosting survivability, November Foxtrot (-5% reload time on all consumables.), India Delta (+20% to the amount of HP recovered when the Repair Party consumable is used.), and India Yankee (-20% to fire duration.) are all important signals to take. November Echo Setteseven (+5% continuous damage by all AA guns, +5% damage per second within the explosion radius of shells fired from medium- and long-range AA defenses.) may also help survivability by increasing the damage per second of the anti-aircraft guns, while mounting Sierra Mike (+5% to the ship's maximum speed.) will aid in maneuverability. The economic and special flags may also be used on the Giulio Cesare, however if low on these signal flags they are best saved for higher tiered premium ships as they provide more gains in experience and credits.


Note: Use of the Juliet Charlie signal makes detonation impossible.
