However, with only two turrets, careful positioning and map awareness are necessary to ensure all guns remain in the fight. Her turrets have a fast 180-degree turn time of 30 seconds. However, with only six guns, she can be frustratingly inaccurate at times, and her 28.6-second reload means she cannot make up for it with volume of fire. Her HE shells have a 49% fire chance and 68 mm of penetration.Ĭhampagne’s guns are very accurate, with best-in-tier horizontal and vertical dispersion, and 2.0 sigma. Her AP shells feature decent alpha damage, high velocity, very high penetration (more than any other 406 mm battleship at Tier VIII), and can overmatch 27 mm armor. They have an impressive range of 25 km, which can be further increased with the Spotter Plane consumable. Her guns are larger than those carried by most French battleships at Tier VIII and IX. Her strength in long range fire support and mobility is offset by poor survivability characteristics.Ĭhampagne carries six 406 mm guns in two triple turrets. Premium Tier VIII French battleship Champagne carries six 406 mm guns that feature high penetration and velocity.
