Because Sachsen is a subclass of Bayern, which was supposed to get a diesel engine, slightly longer hull, heavier by 200 t, and additional armor over diesel. So I would say they added it because its slightly different from Bayern but not completely Bayern in oppose if they added Baden. Oh and it the only ship of its class with diesel because the forth one Württemberg would be again with turbine as flagship with additional quarters for crew
@@worldc6685 again Sachsen by herself is just Bayern with diesel, how gaijin released her is their problem, they just cheated here releasing Bayern under name of the ship that constructively not much different from her.
@@worldc6685 I mean, the weight difference is reflected on the statcard. The stern armor bulkhead was also extended further to the rear on Sachsen in-game, as well as the additional armor over the diesel engine location, 200mm armor extending forward of the third turret barbette. I'm not able to verify the length increase as I own neither of the vessels, but Sachsen also did get a new 3D model, as her hull slightly different with the lack of anti-torpedo netting gear. The X-Ray model for the engines appears identical to the Bayern; and her top speed is shared with the Bayern (Did the diesel intend to improve speed? Or range?)
Could also be good with another Lorraine-class. Lorraine in-game only has four turrets due to getting a catapult in the interwar years whereas the other ships of the class kept the five turret configuration. That's 20% primary firepower increase at the cost of AA. A Normandie-class could also be nice
Because it's been more than a year since last German tech tree capital ship is implemented while they can't give Gneisenau or Bismarck because they know people were feeling bad about World of Scharnhorst in current 7.0 naval battle
@kiranplays2688 The fact that Scharn had excellent gun performance and her survivability being so above the rest. She was one of the key ships in mind when they implemented the new damage model for ships, including the ability to rip permanent holes in a ship, because Scharn could just take the damage and keep fighting effectively.
@@bb-152ussmeta9At least it's realistic given how badly Scharnhorst got jumped irl and still took so many hits. This may be why they also aren't too keen in adding the Bismarck, the survivability of the hull would be insane and just not fair.
Hey Napalmratte how is your green circle directly on your cursor? Mine at 2km or closer if I aim directly at the enemy. Lets say they are 1.5km away the guns are aiming at the water 1km for example. And I essentially have to aim so high up I can even see the enemy

"Equalize the nations" Gaijin blanches in pure horror seriously lol, they don't really want to do that, a balanced game doesn't sell gigantic numbers of one or two vehicles (ahem, 2S38/TURMS/CV90105 post change). it's so silly how they keep giving the most powerful nations even more powerful ships while new nations (that they charged truly obscene amounts for people to access) get left to rot... by the time France gets a Dunkerque, the Japanese, Americans, Germans and Russians will have 5-8 battleships/battlecruisers that can easily dispatch the ONE French BB that actually stands any chance against them...
You know KMS Lützov would just be another Graf Spee. Gneisenau would be a dumb addition. I wouldnt say dumb but kinda pointless(it would be cool though. I would like to see it). Because you see how hard it is to kill a Scharnhorst. Yeah they both have their own differences but their designs are overall almost identical(ex: Hipper and Eugen)
If they are adding never completed ships, so i will hope they will add Mackensen-class battlecruiser too in the future. Maybe even Ersatz Yorck-class, as i have nothing against some more "paper" designs like this.
@@lavrentivs9891 Not really. Every nation has lots of uncompleted ships that could be added, and they'll have to add them in order to not run out of content.
So did Gaijan nerf naval rewards, 7 kills and you only get 4,600 RP 19k SL. Before the 11th anniversary that would get you atleast 10 to 15k rp and around 50k sl. SMH gaijin
the whole reason why Gaijin introduced Sachsen and not something else is to prepare excuse for adding all the fantasy ships for Russia in the future ... Sovetsky Soyuz, Stalingrad, etc ... they need some other ship from another nation first they can point to later and say look, we added never constructed ships for other nations too. While other nations are still missing actual existing ships they constructed and used during war, priority for Gaijin is giving russians yet another batch of fantasy vehicles their industrial base wasn't capable of ever getting operational.
You're entirely right. They're adding useless 'project' ships for other nations, so that they can justify adding OP 'project' (napkin drawing) Soviet ships.
@@ThatZenoGuy Not really. There are other unfinished ships in other nations as well, and some of them were introduced before Kron herself. And of course they’ve always said that they will add unfinished ships, since pretty much the beginning of naval. OP’s statement is just simply wrong.
Yo, great vid as alawys! I have a question, i think i might buy Des Moines or maybe the Eugen but i cant decide, Moines has some nice DPM but seems very squishy
In terms of survivability, Eugen is best among the heavy cruisers because she has overlapping armor protecting her citadel, and a turtle back armor scheme. Des Moines on the other hand is hands above the best heavy cruiser in terms of firepower. Due to her autoloading guns and her Super Heavy AP shells, makes her even a threat to early dreadnoughts.
@thelasthussar between the two, I would choose Des Moines. While not the most survivable, she has the capability to punish most ships in just a few minutes' worth of volleys. Your best bet is to stick to range, and allow your teammates and bots to rush in while you aim for the enemy ships citadel or, if you can't viable pen it, aim to disable gun turrets.
I agree that the nation needs to be equalized, But if the ussr is gonna get bigger caliber guns they need to fix their fantasy 12" shells first, and not give the bigger guns more OP fantasy shells.
allright Napalmratte, jetzt verzähl mir mal warum ich meine gespadete Bayern zur Sachsen grinden sollte. Ich seh auf der STat Card keinen Unterschied. Please xplain Senpairatte, danke! :D
I really want to see the Austro-Hungarian ships, like the Radetzky class or the Tegethoff class
I like your idea. I built a model of a tegethoff. Viribus Unitis.
That might be the next step for Italy now that they have the Hungarian subtree

Glad that i am not alone wondering, why do we need SMS Bayern with slightly better AA?
As a German main... I dun want it
I think at some point in the future a gneisenau with the planned 6x38cm refit would be a cool addition

would be cool or if they wanted to hold off on that they could do one of the partially completed battlecruisers planned to have 38cm guns@@Thecoolman1
