Did battlecruisers work as well in real life as they do in World of Warships?
Short answerThey could work better when they used speed and long-range fire to stay clear of close-range destroyer torpedoes.
NotesA viewer asks whether battlecruisers perform as well in reality as they do in World of Warships. They could perform better in real operations because their speed and gun range let them remain much farther away. The game creates narrow channels where a destroyer can suddenly launch torpedoes at close range before the larger ship can turn clear. Battlecruiser performance depended on controlling engagement distance and avoiding a confined close-range fight.
