Gneisenau was virtually identical to Scharnhorst with three triple turrets (two fore, 1 aft) with 280mm guns. The ship which is presented here as Gneisenau looks just like Bismarck with twin 380mm turrets and torpedo tubes which would actually make this ship more like the Tirpitz than Gneisenau.

It resembles what Gneisenau and Scharnhorst might have looked like if they had been modernized/improved as planned. It doesn't have a 283 mm option to avoid having another Mogami-esque ship.

Gneisenau in game includes the planned upgrade to 6x 15" that was started but never finished. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even the in-game description of the ship states it's a modernization of the original Gneisenau, but no one reads that anyway... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
