The concept of a battlecruiser is an interesting one.
The idea of putting BB size guns on a fast hull is interesting(in ever meaning of the word be in positive or negative).

I'm planing to create an alternative line of Royal Navy, Hochseeflotte and Nipon Kaigun battlecruisers.

My starting idea is that like the Dreadnought that received 12 inch Mark X guns of the proceeding Nelson class, my Invincible class will have 9,2''/50 Mark XI from the Minotaur.

With the HSF I have it easier as basically the Blusher was just what I am trying to create, so no change here.

Von der Tann?
Here were things get interesting.
It can have the layout of Kaiser class Battleship or it own.
It can retain the 21cm guns or go for 254mm.

I'm asking what are your opinions on the matter?
And I realize its not the most original idea.

I will do just that as soon as I get my photobucket account working again. :(

9,2'' armed Invincible is quite straight forward, its the Vonn der Tann that gives me problems.
I still don't know how will it look.

Well thank you for trying to help but it is not that easy.

I will need to get my computer is ,for lack of a better term, being difficult.
The anti virus software is insistent on not opening certain web addresses.
Confirmation of photobucket password change being one of them.
I'm working on fixing the problem but it is persistent.

Anyway the drawing is in progress however it was put to my attention that 8x9,2'' ship with there range and speed of Invincible will be under gunned, and retaining the original design armour will make in under armoured also.

Any ideas on the ship I'm proposing?


Fixed the photobucket problem. I was forced to used a borrowed computer.
I will post the drawing some time tomorrow.
