I have no problem with them, and use them on 7 out of 8 of my battleships, 1 of them being my most important ship of all. 2 of them are full Cerb. Brawling is not the only thing they are good for, but they also excel at instakilling bombers, which is why my Jorm is full cerb. I've instakilled many already.

They are not efficient if they diffract in front of you rather than hitting a target which is within the prescribed range of the turret.

Remember, weapon mechanics work in two ways. There is the maximum range of a weapon and the effective range of a weapon. It is the effective range that is in question here.

Effective Range = Max Range - 500m for Battleship turrets.

If the target is at a distance > effective range but < max range, the projectile will converge (diffract) into a central point in front of your screen and not hit the target.


They are not an anti-snub weapon, they are primarily designed for close quarters / broadside combat. But being a battleship turret that is inaccurate at ranges > 1,000 m is wholly unacceptable!

These were the mainstay of bs combat before, their revised range has made them entirely useless for all intents and purposes.

They should at minimum have the same range as cruiser cerbs.
