But iam curios do we get a 15" refit for the Scharnhorst? (gneisenau last refit never finished) that would make the Scharnhorst class valid as BB6 or 7

This is Wargaming. If there was half of a urine-soaked napkin with an ink smudge that even remotely resembles a ship it will eventually end up in game. So, yes. I almost guarantee a very real plausible refit will be in.

Unless it doesn't fit with the tree they are trying to build, like the Furutaka dual turrets.

Vaild as a BB?  Are you kidding?  Scharnhorst and Gneisenau are going to be the two best BBs in the game sub tier 8.  You have a ship that can speed along at 31 knots, mount torpedoes, turn almost as fast as a cruiser, has a 14 inch armor belt and mounts 9 x 11 inch high velocity, low trajectory guns that can penetrate 20 inches of armor at 10 km firing at a rate of 3.5 rounds per minute.  Oh and since they are 11 inch guns they will have an AP damage value of about 7000-8000 damage and the fact they are very long ranged guns, probably should have 20+ km range or something crazy like that. Then don't forget the heal skill

 

Honestly it is going to be hard for them to not be overpowered.

Yamato had a 644m TTD (Tactical Turn Diameter) to it's 900m in-game, and Iowa had a 744m TTD to it's 920m in-game.  The Fletcher-class destroyer turned slower than an Iowa IRL, so don't count on it being an agile ship at all just because it was in reality.

Where are you getting 20 inches at 10km? Everywhere I look is 4-6 inches below 20 inches at 10km. Also range of the gun means nothing when it comes to range for BBs, only the height of the optical range finder.

Bisquick?

 Not interested in any German ships so, not "everyone" is yelling Bisquick.

Which is the most op line/prems in this game?  I don't play it "yet", but let's be realistic, my time is far too important to waste on nonsense, so I'm thinking cruisers, but IJN or US?  Also, which prems to free xp with?  Choices seem quite limited.
