Would HMS Edgar capsize when firing a full broadside?

Would World of Warships' HMS Edgar capsize when firing all of her guns?

Probably not; her machinery and hull provide substantial stability, and the lighter Worcester class offers a useful real-world comparison.

The panel rejects the recurring claim that a heavily armed cruiser must roll over when every gun fires. Edgar's large steam plant places substantial weight low in the hull, while beam and length-to-beam ratio matter more than counting turrets in isolation. The Worcester class carried a comparable number of rapid-fire turrets on a lighter hull without capsizing during broadside fire. If designers still feared a sharp recoil impulse, very small firing delays between mounts could spread the load without reducing the practical salvo.
