Thus, captains should plan their route ahead of time, using her above average concealment of 15km (13km with relevant captain skills and camo) to safely take aggressive positions and evaluate potential escape routes. Her top speed and rudder shift time are decidedly average, and her 810 turning radius is below average for Tier VII. While Prinz Heinrich’s agility and maneuverability aren’t subpar, they’re also nothing to write home about. However, her small health pool and thinly armored bow and stern leave her vulnerable to coordinated focus fire from multiple enemy ships. As such, Prinz Heinrich truly shines in one-on-one engagements, where she can take full advantage of her offensive capabilities. Like her predecessors, she carries thick belt armor, excellent secondaries, and long range torpedo tubes. Tier VII German Battlecruiser Prinz Heinrich combines moderate top speed and moderate detection range with a small but accurate main battery. The design did not go to waste however, as they helped to form the preliminary design for the Scharnhorst-class battleships.
Ersatz Yorck was the only ship to be laid down, but due to the diversion of resources towards U-boat construction, work on all capital ships had been halted by early 1918. The most notable change was increasing the main battery size from 14in to 15in, the same guns as the Bayern-class battleships, and the same size as the Renown and Admiral classes. Originally planned as additional Mackensen-class battlecruisers, details on the British Admiral, and Renown classes, as well as the American Lexington-class battlecruisers caused the additions to be redesigned as a new class.
