Btw, R.B. seems to have used the initial guns and not the 1939 ones! Oh well ...

This is tough.  Everybody, with one exception, seems to have missed it by a little bit in a different direction.

Stop voting for me.  People will think I did it.

For the record, I picked Raevski.

Very tought to choose. I'll go with herky80, although he made the rookie mistake with the speed. Mains without ER, AA and SA were exactly right though.

I'm really suprised that everyone gave her at least 4 hull for 13,000 tons.

very close to call and a very difficult ship to stat!

Is she classed as a BB?

Did herky08 provide a speed, or just Slow 2?

He implied speed 2 slow 2. Tbh the speed and hull things were the only certain (18 knots and 13,000 tons are clearly speed 1 and hull 3 respectively). It's strange that all missed at least one of the two. However, some got pretty tough stats, e.g. AA and Main weren't easy. Especially the lack of ER was IMO the most difficult.

That was hard.
i when with 4 hull because i though RB might have given her some licence to give the Germans a Cheap BC. albeit slow
I am glad i picked Shore bombardment. I got the points right.

I think Snippersly's entry should get more than 0 votes.

Very close Mains, and much closer secondaries than Raevski's (the secondaries is why I didn't vote for Raevski), perfect AA, perfect Armor, Vital Armor, and no flag.

As do I, I mean, really? honestly?

I think I should've thought about the differences between Shore Bombardment and Shore Support (or that Shore Support was the actual name of the SA *DOH!*)

I was tempted to vote for you, Sharpe, as your entry was hilarious (the Estonian Tourist Board sealed it for me), but I restrained myself.

Thank you for not voting for me, though I would like to point out that the final resting place of the S-H is now an official national historical site in Estonia and should be so on our game maps as well.
