Player Opinion
Performance
Warning. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
For a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".
Pros:
- Shares many of the positive aspects of the Charles Martel upon which it is based
- Low surface detection when fully built, allows for stealth torpedo capability
- rather decent mid and short range AA rings
- Rather powerful HE shells, with a 12.0% Fire Chance
- Access to scout aircraft
- Access to Torpedo Reload Booster
- Quick on it's feet, with a 9.8 second rudder shift and a small-ish turning circle
Cons:
- Shares many of the weak points of Charles Martel
- Loses Engine Boost and Main Battery Reload Booster
- Has only 3 Torpedoes per side.Though they deal good damage, they are Deepwater, making them useless against DDs
- Pathetically slow for what it is, even Baltimore and Hipper are faster
- No access to Hydroacoustic Search, only has Defensive AA Fire
- Horribly squishy, prone to exploding if caught by heavy cruisers showing broadside ( and all Battleships within her matchmaking spread with a gun caliber of 380mm or larger at any angle)
