  I pushed south with 2 other BB's, as the remainder of our team went north and died within minutes. All 3 enemy DD's and 2 BB's (Yamato and Bismarck) pummeled us south, as we had no screen, and were perpetually spotted by invisible enemies. I spent the whole game maneuvering to dodge torpedoes and healing, and taking blind shots at enemies I couldn't see. We had no support or spotting, and both green BB's eventually succumbed and sank with little to no damage dealt. I ended the game on fire, surrounded on all sides by invisible DD's, and was targeted by 5 enemy ships, none of which I could see.
We managed to sink a single red that entire game.......this is officially my worst loss to date.

25k in a Yamato is rough. But 25k in a Yamato while being Top 5 on the team....I shudder to think of the "team" you had.

Christ almighty. I'd struggle not to uninstall after that tragedy. You did 25,000 damage in a tier X battleship, and somehow, seven other people had a worse match. Staggering.

I could not describe to you the feeling of complete powerlessness. Being ripped apart by multiple enemies, none of which you have a hope of spotting. It was a miracle that I even survived the battle in and of itself.
Everyone knows that most games are steamrolls either way. Either a steamroll loss or a steamroll win. That was definitely a game where I questioned if I even want to keep playing this game any more.
Constantly maneuvering to avoid torpedos is very important to staying alive in a BB, but it makes it incredibly hard especially in Yamato, to get any kind of decent aim into your shots, for the few seconds you have to shoot at a target when they finally do get spotted. 19 hits was only 25k dmg. If I had stopped maneuvering even for a second I would have been wiped out. Thats what happened to my 2 BB allies.
