Nürnberg — German Tier VI cruiser.
The ship was developed from the Königsberg-class cruisers. In contrast to her predecessors, she had larger dimensions and featured reinforced turret armor. Moreover, she retained the main battery guns with their high performance characteristics. The cruiser's AA defense comprised numerous anti-aircraft guns.

Player Opinion
Performance
Touted as a rival to the likes of Cleveland and Budyonny at Tier VI, Nürnberg is a moderate upgrade from her predecessor, Königsberg.
Players familiar with Königsberg will adapt to Nürnberg quickly while noting several improvements. For starters, her guns reload faster, dropping from 7.5 seconds to 6 seconds between salvos. She is laid out almost identically, though Nürnberg’s "Bruno" (or "X") turret rests on the ship's centerline as opposed to Königsberg’s offset stern turrets. She retains the same superlative range — 16.5 km — as well as the torpedo layout of Königsberg, with two triple-tube launcher on each side of the ship.
Her AA is improved, but like her predecessor, she's unlikely to shoot down too many planes despite the additional guns. Hull (C) offers Nürnberg captains an intriguing choice: they can give up one torpedo launcher per side in exchange for a significant buff to her AA suite and access to the Defensive AA Fire consumable (instead of Hydroacoustic Search). Many captains opt to bypass this configuration of the ship, but players who find themselves joining a division with an aircraft carrier on a regular basis are advised to strongly consider investing in Hull (C) and the Defensive Fire consumable.
Nürnberg’s strengths are many, but so are her weaknesses. While captains may be used to it by the time they reach Nürnberg, her turret layout is still somewhat awkward and she lacks significant armor. Battleships can citadel her with ease at virtually all angles, and enemy heavy cruisers — such as Aoba or Molotov — salivate at the thought of catching a Nürnberg broadside with AP rounds in their barrels. Playing her well requires careful positioning and extremely good situational awareness; Nürnberg is not a ship that one can put into a risky situation and live to fight another day. She'll reward cautious play, but will fold quickly under concentrated enemy fire.Pros:
- Same impressive range as her predecessor.
- Good gun handling and shell speed, coupled with the German version of Hydroacoustic Search, makes her an ideal anti-destroyer ship.
- Guns reload every 6 seconds, far faster than her peers at Tier VI.
- Low shell arc and high muzzle velocity.
- Same surprising AP damage when it punches through.
- Improved AA suite.
- Increased durability.
- Like Königsberg, the X and Y turrets can rotate 360 degrees, making switching firing sides a snap.
- Extremely good turning radius with a amazing rudder shift.
- A very fast cruiser.
Cons:
- Handling feels like a Tier VI Königsberg.
- AA suite, despite being better, will still struggle to shoot down many airplanes unless Defensive AA Fire is active.
- Same citadel layout and A-XY turret layout as her predecessor.
- Still very little armor, making modules vulnerable to incapacitations and devastating citadel hits.
- He C hull upgrade takes away two torpedo launchers and gives more AA but her B hull lets you keep the torpedo launchers but gives you less AA.
- Regarded as a mobile citadel.

Camouflage
Type 1, 2, or 5 camouflage can be equipped for credits; Types 2 or 5 are recommended at a minimum to reduce the accuracy of incoming shells.
Players who wish to spend doubloons can equip Nürnberg with Type 16 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
