Not a fan but they give increased long range accuracy, which makes the big guns hit more often, so on they go.Urgh, cage masts. No thanks.
Though I'm now into the 1910s and the first superdreadnoughts are coming online, with non-cage towers.
Just laid North Dakota as my first 40kton super, four double 15" guns. And my Dauntless-class battlecruisers, 30ktons, 28 knots and three triple 12" turrets with several double 6" secondaries. (She is, after all, a battlecruiser, and I fully intend to use her to murderize cruisers).(This game's a bit less forgiving about the weights, plus stuff like the towers and funnels and barbettes are items you have to put on and count towards tonnage too..)
Still beating Germany's face in, theirr fleet's mostly wrecked. Japan's gone, I took most of it while China got Kyushu and Britain has northern Hokkaid. China, France, and the UK are the powers above me, though China probably just from sheer quantity of light hulls and CAs. Mighht build a new generation of light cruisers with 4-5" guns exclusively to murderize their torpedo boat swarm.
