Mackensen — Germany Tech Tree Tier VI Battleship.

When designing a new battlecruiser, the issue of artillery was of utmost importance. Different options were suggested for the armament of the new ships, such as a configuration with six 380 mm guns distributed among three turrets or an alternative with ten 305 mm guns. As a compromise, it was decided to arm the battlecruisers with eight 350 mm guns. Construction was halted due to the end of hostilities when the ship was only 15 months away from completion.

Pros

• High secondary battery gun efficiency
• Strong torpedo armament
• High top speed

Cons

• Few charges of the Repair Party consumable
• Low damage per salvo
