look out for 6/6 crits :)

[katadder]

they may come 50% less but a 6/6 crit is over for that ship, none of this 4d6 damage, its sunk :lol:

Guess the Bismarck gunners rolled a 6/6 when firing on the Hood, then?

What does this topic say?
Sorry, but I am really confused. Are you talking about the different Critical Hit tables in VaS when compared to ActA?
What is funny about it?

They are just adjusted to WW2 Naval warfare. Think of the battle of the Denmark Straight and the fate of the Hood, a slight possibility for an "instant death" seems OK.

And Arizona, and Scharnhorst, and quite a few others!

The Hood was ill protected against this kind of event. she was a battle cruiser not a battle ship. And it was not seem possible when she was build. An "instant death" need both a good amounth of firepower, and a vulnerability.

 

[Lord David the Denied]

Indeed. Bismarck was pounded for several hours with large-calibre guns and torpedoed and still refused to sink. She was only out of the fight because of the rudder damage...

 

[Greg Smith]

Surely the Bismark was only in the fight because of damage to her rudder, otherwise she'd have been back in port.

 

[Lord David the Denied]

Well yes, but assuming the ship had been caught anyway, the damage done was largely crew casualties and damage to the superstructure. The hull was sound even after being torpedoed.
