Awesome. Love it
Sooooooo good. possibly the best thing i own. so much fire power. easy to use and super fun. kinda slow but to be fair it is a battle ship. what did i expect? lol
Massive, Legendary, And Powerful.
This was the second product I bought from <A-T>. The first being the Tiger... The Bismarck is one of my most favorite War Machines ever constructed, so I just had to get it. This is my honest review.
+3 It's A Bismarck
+1 Detail
+1 Weapon Power
Here's what I have to say: The Bismarck is moderately fast, but not very nimble. It has plenty of AA that make quick work of anything in the sky, has 5-inch guns that are good Anti-Everything, and the throttle runs in gears. The 15-ich guns are only controlled through the HUD, for fairness of combat, but I wish it was Mouselook. The ship also has an acceptable amount of HP, but I really wish the Engine was Toggle. I also would've liked a "Guest" mode. I still use this ship from time to time, and am very happy with my purchase. I am definitely going to keep Astral Technologies in my memory, and will keep an eye for future products. I hope to see the King Tiger make a return someday.
Also, I'd review the <A-T> Tiger, but for some reason, it won't let me right a review. No problem though, 10/10 would buy it again.
Awesome Battleship
Another great ship. Feels real to sail and handles very well. Even not in battle you will trun a lot of heads with this one.
Top Class
One of, if not the finest vice ship in SL, the Battleship Bismark/Tirpitz is a must for any seagoing collection. This ship looks immense and comes in 2 colour schemes it feels and handles like the big ship she is and the vice setup is straighforward and simple to switch between the 3 armament types. The 15" guns are an awesome sight and sound and even the sea ripples when these big boys go off! set the charges for short or longer distance, get the trajectory right and watch as your enemy founders under Bismarks withering fire. ( I sunk stuff 2 sims away :D) Planes buzzing you? - no problem switch to AA and watch your gun crews send up a curtain of flak and shrapnel. and for close up work on fast moving ships switch to 5" guns. Overall I give this ship 5* for build quality and downright coolness, worth every penny.
