→Common Setups: Revised statement on overweight BB penalty.
** Battleships feature a selection of Heavy Main Guns and massive resulting firepower in addition to the potent Armor Piercing shells which can cause brutal critical hits. Setups for battleships are similar to those of heavy cruisers, with one notable addition.

** The Armor Piercing Shells that battleships have access to allows for the highly effective 2 Main gun, AP Shell, Seaplane setup ({{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) which has a more effective Artillery Spotting Cut-In, while providing better stats than secondary guns.

** Note: There is some speculation that the heaviest guns (46cm Triple Mount) on Fast Battleships (Kongou-class, Bismark) incur an 'overweight' accuracy penalty. There is also speculation that the 'overweight' accuracy penalty occurs (or is greatly increased) when ''any'' non-Yamato Class BB equips'' more than one'' 46cm Triple Mount gun.
** Note: Official tweets state that overuse of cannons larger than what a BB is meant for will make it "overweight" and incur a "minor" accuracy penalty. (IE: Too many 46cm or even 41cm cannons on Fast Battleships such as Kongou-class and Bismark.) The effects haven't been noticeable enough to make any concrete statements.
