It’s like the GC a simple tier 5 battleship that does everything consistent. Consistent enough to make tier 7 ships cry.
Got it in a Santa container this year.
Lenin, I still have nightmares of it, every time my Zieten sees it, I know I’m doomed
I never survive meeting one.
Got it as a Santa drop as well :^)
The Lenin is fun, but it has one particular weakness: the worst penetration of all BBs of its tier despite having 406mm guns.
Pretty standard lenin battle when you slip into t6/t7 battles 😀 it´s my most played ship it´s so much fun 😀
My Lenin is useless, can’t hit a thing, probably needs a buff, SLM is totally exaggerating things Mr Dev.
close range… it hits just fine, at distance of 12km or more? not so much…
1000% its not that great
@@ruskiessuck3337 lol 1000% user error going on here.
37.5% hit rate in mine. With my shooting that is on the higher end. Shorter the range the better, but she’ll speed is advantageous out to 16km. 17km+ is frustrating but not untenable for a broadside shot.
Can confirm. Lenin 100% needs buffed. 👍 SLM just making jokes dev team.
I have mixed feelings about bb’s (and some cruisers) with all the main guns up front. On one hand, you don’t have to worry about getting all your guns on target, and you get better times getting them on target. On the other hand, when you’re trying to run away from an area, that’s all you can do, while with a rear turret you can still do damage.
One positive that is overlooked. When u bow tank. U have 3 turrets that bounce a lot. Turret armor is usually crazy high
@@jackconrad2667 You can’t shoot all 3 of them in that position and the barbette of the 2nd turret is easy target and you can be left with only 1 turret stuck nose in and limited by your reverse speed. The only way you would “want” to be in such a position is when you are doing it in a coordinated push in overwhelming force like how he was at the start VS the KGV and the Pensa. Lenin alone is one of the most easy targets to sink. Yes, the ship have a lot of armor from the front but as all USSR ships the HUGE nose that you think the icebreaker is protecting have a very big part of it that is not covered, the turret position that I was talking is an issue, slow speed, abysmal rate of fire, limited DMC’s and very, VERY questionable dispersion pasterns and God forbid you were ever caught from the rear… As for the “Turret armor is usually crazy high” GL with that when the enemy BB is spamming high caliber HE at you turret top or he is closer and uses AP to destroy your 2nd turret and disable your 1st or 3rd when you are trying to line up the broadside on a drive by.
I’ll roll Santa containers if it is included this year. Looks like good fun
One of the advantages of being addicted to the game is the OP ships, goodie boxes. Considering it’s free to play, I guess that’s a fair trade-off. I’ve still managed to keep my head above water, playing tech line ships for the most part. It can be done.
Needs a spotter plane instead of a fighter plane, and a slight range buff, otherwise it is good in ranked
Lenin vs Nelson, come on you know you want too!
Ouch, Nelson would have a rough time with this. Citadels through the bow – Lenin makes short work of Nelson.
@@xPureNRG007xI’d say angled right Nelson can burn Lenin down (he only gets 5 DCPs and Nelson gets superheals).
Nelsons guns are also more accurate. This matchup is going to vary depending on distance, islands, luck, etc.
There is no busted ship as long as RNG is alive and well.
OK, Sealord….. this is the third or fourth video I’ve watched where you mispronounce Wiesbaden…..I figured someone would have commented on this by now…. but the correct pronunciation is Vees – bahden… baa–(as in sheep) with the accent on the first syllable. Thanks for continuing to make good content!! See you in the next one!
It does get old. It is not hard when in every video people tell you exactly how to pronounce something. Definitely a “will” issue vs skill. But I love SLM’s content/effort, and consider his mispronunciation somewhat endearing to his character.
@@xPureNRG007xhis pronunciation of Coruña bothered me more, since it takes even less effort. The ñ is an “ny” sound and is really not hard to learn. And it’s not like the Spanish ships are new + Americans should know some Spanish, it’s so widely spoken just south of them.
I think it’s generally an American trait to not try to learn how to pronounce things and to be proudly ignorant though. He’s certainly not the only Youtuber guilty of this.
Thanks for featuring my replay Sea Lord! Really appreciate it!

This ship was a lot stronger before wargaming changed the detectability ranges of battleships. Her guns are not long distance and she has no spotter. In the early days she was much more of terror than she is now.
Poor Yorktown captain. All the glory went to “friendly Hornet player”.
I’ll have to play mine more. Picked it up last Christmas container run. Thanks.
Sea Lord the name of the new ship is Weisbaden (pronounced Veesbaaden).
“Wiesbaden”
Wiesbaden has one d so long a. Wiesbaaaaden.
