Player Opinion
Performance
Romulus is an improvement from Tatra, as it has one more main gun and two more torpedoes. The torpedoes have a rather odd arrangement - the first tube has two whereas the second has four, the only time when a Tier II destroyer has a quadruple launcher. That said, the torpedoes do not deal much damage to enemies, which is a trait of European destroyers. As with most destroyers at its tier, it has great speed and rudder shift times. When playing Romulus, it is important to know her weaknesses in a destroyer to avoid mistakes - these include her poor torpedo firing angles and slow turret rotation.
Pros:
- Good reload speed (5 sec.)
- Quad torpedo tube
- Good speed and rudder shift time
Cons:
- Hp on the lower side even when upgraded
- Low armor
- No smoke generator
- Only one quad torpedo tube, and poor firing angles
- Very low torpedo damage
- Slow main gun rotation
