Built off Garlicdesign's Helgoland.

For my fictional WW1 empire.





I've updated the design, it's almost completely new now.

Why the unnecessarily massive superstructure? Only eats up valuable margins of stability as well as crucial tonnage. Also please note that on the forward wing turret base, one of the secondary casemate recesses is eating up volume needed for turret loading room and cartridge chamber. I'd consider redesigning that! Finally, your funnels are way, way too low, blowing hot fumes straight onto the SL-positions abaft the second funnel.
Otherwise a promising 'first'!

Oh, I forgot to update the image for this thread.

The space problem was fixed, the searchlight/funnel problem will be fixed in a refit, since I've seen similar problems on real ships.

And because design flaws add character when they don't make the ship sink and/or explode.
