Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
That was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
So each gun can elevate independently. Does Wargaming take this into account when firing? I don't think I ever noticed them elevating independently.

Jeebus! Those 3 guys who actually load the shell and powder into the actual gun, do they just still stand there when the gun is later fired!?!?!
I'm not sure what I thought, I guess I expected it to be a cartridge fired shot (like a 9mm ..) where the powder was already part of the shell...
I never expected bags of powder nevermind 6 - and that it takes almost 80 crew per turret to keep it moving and firing.
I knew they were big, but I didn't comprehend the workings. I guess the more modern guns are gas propelled shells?
It'd be cool if they coded in the barrel drop on BBs to simulate the reload -> ready cycle.
