it's really pedantic and nomenclature intensive. It was also significantly safer too as if the #2 barrel on the #1 turret encountered some form of problem, beit training problem or loading problems with the shell/powder, the rest of the turret could continue fighting while that problem is addressed under less pressure.Īs for the distinguishing between the types. By going to a 3-Gun layout with independent elevation you could fire each barrel as they came up so if one crew could load in 25 seconds and another in 35 you could keep firing without waiting for the slow pokes. This reduced the possible number of rounds put on target in a combat situation. In a "Triple Gun" turret where all elevate together, you are stuck waiting for the slowest gun crew before all of the barrels in a turret could elevate. Independent elevation had little to do with shore bombardment and everything to do with allowing a gun crew to work at the pace necessary to address problems in firing without holding up the entire turret. 'Concentrated Fire' I think is the term widely used in WoWS battle chat. For shooting at a moving target, while you are moving, I want as many guns firing at the same target, to increase the chances of a hit. This would result in a wider area of destruction. As inaccurate as BB guns are, I'm glad WG implemented them the way they did, as opposed to the way they were actually operated.įor shore bombardment, there is an advantage to modifying the elevation of individual guns of the same turret.
