As a btw since I'm passing by, ammunition penalties are applied after the firepower cap. So whether you use 46cm or not, your firepower is still going to go down at last dance.

This leaves 2 corner cases where the 46cm is useful on Yamato/Musashi:

1. If you get Head-on engagement in the day and for some reason can't get the necessary firepower to reach ~ 188 using 41cm guns (base 139 FP, 40 FP base from dual 41cm guns, 8 FP base from type 91 AP shell; upgrade ANY of them to +1 and you already cap on firepower).

2. If you need overwhelming firepower in yasen in a non-combined fleet map for a non-installation target, as no installation target currently in existence can survive a dual 41cm + sanshikidan double attack from a yamato class. Basically, if AD Hime appears in a non-combined fleet map, this might be useful. Yasen firepower+torpedo cap is 300.
