Naval Battleships better damage

Wait, are we talking about the same battleships? Past level 4 (when you get them into their prime range) they destroy everything. Battleships aren't designed for coastal attack, D-DAY called for thousands of ships, including tens of Battleships, to 'spray' the beaches with shells. Battleships are insanely powerful, they can destroy the other two surface ships with ease: and when Carriers come, they'll destroy carrriers with ease.

Battleships are fine.

yea, maybe a small upgrade to damage

Are we all using different battleships here? Like, have you seen how power a battleship is? LvL 5 ships are satans rubber ducks!

Battleshil lvl 6 http://prntscr.com/a4fe8e

vs

medium tank lvl 6 http://prntscr.com/a4feu0

I think battleship is useless on coastal troops. with 3.5 at at lvl 6 ...

A battleship is made to fight other ships, of course it won't be as strong against tanks: you're try to aim 9 high power cannons against a small target some several miles away, and hoping you land your shells in the same area. Battleships are fine, maybe invest in Tank Destroyers if you need a way to remove enemy tanks.

The purpose of a battleship was to be a heavy and long range artillery support in naval engagements. They had a further range and much more powerful guns than other kinds of ships. Coastal bombardment was an auxiliary role as they weren't built to take on coastal fortifications. Even then, if they were bombarding, the attacks would be incredibly inaccurate due to range and the size of targets. The best chance there was to hitting something was basically to pepper spray the coast until something was hit. However, if they did hit, it would be devastating for whatever was in the way.

I don't think a damage increase of battle ships vs land units will make much of a difference. Only AI and really big noobs let their armies being bombed by battleships. Any normal player would not allow this to happen.

Increase damage vs buildings? I don't see how this would affect gameplay in a relevant perspective.

I think the battleship is pretty good as is.

Yes the battleships are excellent in World Map. Remember the tanks don't fight back at the Battleships.

Have 2-3 stacks of 10 Battleships with 10 destroyers to protect them and then go nuts on your enemy's coastal province. T

This'll obliterate troops and building in no time!

However, they are more or less useless in 5V5 and 22-player maps.

don't forget that battleship are not very accurate, and at a long range it's even worse.
