SMS Seydlitz
A powerful battlecruiser, this ship has the distinction of being the worst-damaged German ship to survive the Battle of Jutland. She took on so much water that the bow was nearly awash, forcing the crew to sail her back to port in REVERSE. An excellent ship for the veteran or new battler, she turns well and has many armament options.
