Rating A (Strong within its tier and class · overall score 70) · Secondary-brawler battleship
A German close-range assault battleship combining twelve 406 mm guns with torpedoes. Effective HP is very high at 83,586 (damage reduction included), and secondary DPM of 65,653 is 77% above average, so it gets stronger the closer it gets. Activating Secondary Overload II and Rapid Reload I together lets it unload its main and secondary batteries in a brawl, with 6.9 km torpedoes adding finishing power. However, its 14.04 km main battery range is short, and 31.88 s acceleration and a 19.8 s rudder shift are sluggish, so it often gets battered at range first. The wiki notes that since the equipment rework Großer Kurfürst is stronger even in brawls, shrinking this ship's edge.
