I also die a little bit inside whenever I see battleships go bow-on to an enemy and then put the ship in full reverse, but the mechanics encourage that. There's also the fact that right now a lot of the meta involves sitting outside of detection range or behind islands and spewing High Explosive at everything to set them on fire. Often historical details are secondary to gameplay, and sometimes that's just a minor cosmetic thing (eg the in-game Kongou's model is actually Hiei) but other times it can be quite incongruous (eg nerfing all the IJN Destroyers torpedoes because they're too good). Over-representation of the Russian Navy, for one thing, though that's excusable since it's a Russian made game. It's good, but it also has some problems. Haven't made it past Tier 7 outside of premiums. I play less regularly than I'd like to and am a bit below average at the game (AtomicStrawberry on NA server).
