Pr. 206 is broken

_27_Luftwaffle · July 17, 2020

Hi. I grinded with blood and tears to get my dream Pr. 206 quad 30mm autocannon scout torpedo boat and the ammo system is broken. In any other ship you don't run out of ammo so fast and compared to others, Pr. 206 does not reasonably load in cap zone. If you have ammo it don't replenish ammo like every other vessel do and when you have to shoot your ammo empty to get proper reload, It takes so long that I have not managed to reload the ammo but once, in a game our team was supreme, so it did not make any difference. Yeah the guns are somewhat op but overheat quickly and the boat is allmost one shot for smaller gunboats and totally one shot for ships. It would not be over powered ship if you could reload ammo faster on cap zones and on top of that there should be atleast 4000 rounds to start with. Now the boat is allmost useless because ammo runs out so fast, even if you shoot proper short bursts.

Any opinions on other Pr. 206 owners? Compare the ammo load to Pr.206M where you have 2200 ammo on 57mm dual autocannon so it is 1100 rounds per barrel with slower rate of fire and much more oomph when they hit, needing far les shots to sink enemy vessels to Pr. 206's silly 500 ammo per barrel and smaller calibre. On top of that Pr.206M has 3900 of 25mm ammo for dual AAA and they still have same battle rate. ON my opinion to match the Battle Rating, Pr.206 should have 10 times faster reload on cap zone and 4000-5000 ammo to begin with. German Jaguar class has 4000 ammo for 40mm on same sized or smaller ship. IT is not realistic. And if addingm ore ammo is out of question put anti ship rockets or missiles to Pr.206 to balance it compared to other boats of it's class and BR.

;Tldr;

Pr. 206 = 500 rounds of 30mm per barrel equals 2000 rounds

Pr. 206M = 1100 rounds of 57mm per barrel + 1950 rounds of 25mm per barrel equals 2200 rounds 57mm & 3900 rounds 25mm (allmost as much stopping power as 30mm)

And these are similar boats instead of the guns.

Jaguar Klasse = 2000 rounds of 40mm per barrel equals 4000 rounds

Albatros Klasse = 115 rounds of 75mm per barrel equals 230 rounds (this is not much either but it reloads fast on cap zone like every other vessel in game)

Asheville has staggering 1500 rounds of 76.2mm ammo for autogun like in Albatros Klasse but only one gun. + 2000 rounds for single 40mm gun aka 2000 rounds peer barrel.

Ammo quantities should be more even compared to size of the boats. Winner should be decided by who shoots best, not by duck hunt after others run out of ammo on vessels with similar firepower.

Thank you if you can make Pr. 206 and it's german counterpart + Albatros Klasse carry more ammo and make the Pr. 206 reload faster. On my understanding Pr.206 had more ammo in 2018 but smaler belts. Atleast 4000 rounds on start.

P.S Sparviero carries less ammo than tanks do and has smaller gun than modern tank guns and is way bigger than tanks. That size of boat should have atleast 300-400 rounds with it.
