VII Mainz - WoWS: Legends | Stats + Builds

The project of a cruiser with 150 mm guns (cruiser K), which was developed in the mid-1930s on the basis of the Admiral Hipper-class ships, shortly after the construction of the latter began. She combined the rapid-fire battery of light cruisers with the survivability of heavy ones.

Its a good ship, and even though its guns are traditionally weaker compared other Tier 7 and Tier 8 or 6 cruisers, its extremely fast reload, along with its power AP, its able to cream the broadside of a battleship, or cruiser with ease. BUT its HE is weaker in my opinon compared to other cruisers of its tier(s). Its armor is also depressingly weak, and its turtle back armor scheme makes its horrible to be caught out in the open by a battleship from afar, even if your stem to stern with the battleship, anything with 15 inch guns or bigger (which is most battleships, battlecruisers, and even some heavy cruisers at that tier) can overmatch you! which isnt very good. It's also slow for a cruiser, and large, which makes the way it's supposed to be played hard, because its harder to find islands that you could hide behind.
