Player Opinion

Battleship - Mutsu B

Pros:

• Largest guns of her tier, which can overmatch the bow armor of all her standard competition.
• Has a fairly high top-speed; can outrun most equal and lower tier battleships.
• Large HP pool.

Cons:

• Although she has torpedoes, they have very narrow arcs and require exposing large amounts of broadside to make effective use of them.
• Reasonably well protected on the bow of the ship but terrible armor along her flanks and rear means she will be citadeled very easily if over extended.
• Larger-than-average turning circle radius for a Tier V battleship.
