HandgunOtonashi, don't bitch about anons and then give worse advice. While I certainly don't use triple gun setups most of the time, they're not 'retarded'. Cut-in setups can be a godsend against high armor boss-class enemies at night. Remember a triple-gun cutin is one attack at 200%, which in certain circumstances can be dramatically more effective than two attacks at 120% (what a double attack gives you) because each attack has to make it through the targets armor separately. Against something with a very high armor value like a BB hime, anything that's not Yamato class won't do much even at 120%. But a 200% attack has enough extra power to do real damage even after deducting the armor. And of course there's the extra firepower from the extra gun too (which matters at night). So even if it's not something I would use in daily sorties there is a place for triple gun setups. Which means understanding the accuracy penalty for 3+ guns is something worth knowing. And the anon before you already explained it.

And as Ninthsense already said DL has a real accuracy boost so I certainly wouldn't write off the formation entirely.

As far as using 46cms on Yamato class goes, personally I wouldn't ever sortie Yamato class in the first place unless you're going up against something big, meaning you want as much firepower as you can get for the night battle. Yes that's overkill for most things, but considering how expensive Yamatos are to operate why would you even be sortieing them otherwise?

So I guess I disagree with nearly everything you said...
