Weltenbrand
Tier VII · Battleship · Germany
Rating D (Bottom tier within its tier and class · overall score 2) · Fast battleship
Fast battleship. It is weak against cruisers (AP deals a same-tier cruiser's HP in about 4 min on paper). Top speed of 28.6 kn is 2.2 kn above average, with good turning, rudder shift, acceleration. Unique skill: 'Wing Strike I' gives main battery damage +35%, penetration +10% for 7 s when firing at an enemy's flank. Key skills: Rapid Reload II ×2 (main battery reload +43%, 20 s); Engine Accelerator II ×2 (top speed +12%, 25 s). Its firepower trails other battleships, so be selective and punish broadsides.

An alternative history reconstruction of the improved Dunkerque-class design. Instead of being scuttled, the ship was surrendered and fitted with German guns and electronics, blending French speed with concentrated Kriegsmarine firepower.
