Conte di Cavour — Italian Tier V battleship.

Battleships of the Conte di Cavour class were armed with 13 main battery guns placed in twin- and triple-gun turrets. The lead ship of the series participated in the capture of Corfu in 1923. Later, she was modernized and received a new propulsion unit as well as a new bow section grafted over the existing bow. During World War II, she took part in the battle of Punta Stilo. In 1940, during a British air raid on Taranto, she received a torpedo hit and sank.

Player Opinion

Pros:

Largest main battery broadside in tier/class with thirteen (13) guns
SAP shells are excellent against lightly armored targets
Thick hull and deck armor, Cavour is very tough when properly angled
Good firing angles, can unmask all guns without showing too much broadside
Good turn radius and rudder shift for a battleship
Excellent concealment

Cons:

Second smallest health pool among Tier 5 battleships
Slow main battery traverse speed
Longer than average main battery reload speed
Poor accuracy
Main guns do not have access to HE shells
Weak AA defenses.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for Conte di Cavour are as follows:

Slot 1: This slot is most commonly filled with Main Armaments Modification 1 , though Auxiliary Armaments Modification 1 is a popular pick for captains who go for a full secondary build with other upgrades and commander skills.
Slot 2: There's really only one choice here for battleships - Damage Control System Modification 1 . This will reduce chances of fire and flood.
Slot 3: Aiming Systems Modification 1 to improve her accuracy.
