for beginners it might prove useful due lack of guns,but its not worth wasting your screws there.

if you want to improve big guns,go for 38cm kai(bismarck guns); 381mm kai (italian BBs);proto 46cm;46cm and proto 51cm I really dont understand why you say 41cm gun for BBs.

It is the fitting (size wise) gun for Nagato class, Yamato class and Fusou class. The most often used BBs in anyone's fleet.

New players will not have Bismarck therefore 38cm is out of question. In fact 38 cm Kai is only useful for Yamato class, because they dont lack firepower. All other BBs are better off with 46cm (for firepower) and 41 cm (for balance of firepower and accruacy bonus from fitting gun)

Bismarck is not even recommended to use 38cm kai because of the lack of firepower.

381mm kai is only good for Italin BB, which again is not a go-to optoin for new players. (bec Italian BB need BP too). You dont want to use them on other BBs.

Proto 46cm is not worth wasting screws, a max upgraded one only become 46cm, which you can just build yourself. So why waste screws.

51 cm and 46 cm are defintely worth upgrading, but the cost is so high. How many new players will have 10+ 46 cm to upgrade with?

Even in the end game. If you have a surface fleet (Combined 4BB) of Yamato, Musashi, Nagato, Fusou (if you need a bit more air power) or Mutsu.

Your choice of gun should be 4X38cm Kai MAX (for Yamato class) and 4X 41 cm MAX (for Nagato class and Fusou class)

So 41 CM are defintely worthy upgrade.

In non-surface combined fleet. You just use 2X46 cm nearly all the time anywya for maximum firewpower. (accruacy is taken care of by high levels, high modifcation and AP shells/radar)
