Clan Naval Base

Gun Pitch Correction

Guns on some battleships (especially pre-WW2 dreadnoughts) cannot fire at a close-range target due to poor layout. In WoWS, the system will attempt to make arc shot by raising the gun barrels. But sometimes, it goes beyond the elevation limit in history. To correct this, few gun turrets received a limited pitch.

This change will not affect gameplay, however, it may have tiny, minor, subtle side effect on Arkansas, Wyoming, Ishizuchi, Konig Albert, and Kaiser.

Clan Battle

Clan battle is a high competitive mode that displays the worthiness of a clan and its clan members. It is also the main source of clan development resource - oil.

Ladder point (placeholder name) will be introduced to evaluate a clan's effort in clan battle. Clans will be therefore divided into four leagues: Bronze League, Silver League, Gold League, and Platinum League.

Those who are familiar with Team Battle can navigate themselves in clan battle, the rules are basically same. Except that a clan can send multiple divisions into the matchmaking wait list. Divisions from the same clan will not fight each other (matchmaker will not do this). Imagine a fully developed 50-people clan with 49 active players and 7 divisions in queue, SPLENDID!

However, clan battle division CANNOT have players from another clan or no-clan mercenaries.

Pan Asia Destroyer

The regular torpedoes on Pan Asia DDs have been removed. Deepwater torpedoes are the only option they have, at least for now, and they now do the same amount of damage just like regular torpedoes.

Balances

Warships firing inside or around smoke will have a concealment penalty.

IFHE now only have -1% chance of fire penalty for guns of 139mm and below.
