Brawling with Lyon is not recommended, however, due to her lighter armor. Her secondaries are an improvement over her predecessor's already potent array, to the point where even German counterpart Gneisenau would be jealous: 12 barrels on each side, with a solid fire rate and a massive 9% fire chance. The maneuverability at least is still very good, if not quite to the level of Normandie. This makes it tricky to deploy her firepower without unacceptable risk captains must wait for opponents to be distracted or reloading before turning to unmask all four turrets. Her firing angles are still poor, and to make matters worse, her turret traverse time and firing range are worse than that of Normandie, though the latter is average among her tier VII peers. Like her predecessors, Lyon does not have the most impressive armor, keeping largely the same armor scheme with only a few extra millimeters of thickness here and there. Captains should be prepared to switch ammunition types depending on the situation.
However, the accuracy of individual shells is still questionable, as is the AP penetration.
The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".Įssentially Normandie with a fourth turret superfiring aft, Tier VII's Lyon stands out among ships with the joint largest (by shell count) main battery broadside in the game a fact sure to please or frighten any captain, depending on which side of the salvo they are on.
