Playing her well requires careful positioning and extremely good situational awareness Nürnberg is not a ship that one can put into a risky situation and live to fight another day. Hiding behind islands and using AP or her torpedoes is an effective way to play Nürnberg. It is only when firing AP upon broadside targets that she can actively contribute to the team, otherwise she will be a focus-fire magnet. Ships with good back gun firing angles such as the Dallas or the Pensacola will rip her apart with a hail of HE. The easiest way to counter the Nürnberg is simply to bow-tank she'll land hardly any damage against angled targets. The high explosive rounds, although having 1/4 penetration instead of 1/6 of her 152mm guns, has anemic alpha damage, with each penetrating shot landing less than 700 damage. Her weaknesses aren't limited to just horrible armor. Battleships can citadel her with ease at virtually all angles, and enemy heavy cruisers - such as Aoba or Molotov - salivate at the thought of catching a Nürnberg broadside with AP rounds in their barrels. While captains may be used to it by the time they reach Nürnberg, her turret layout is still somewhat awkward and she has barely any armor at all, except for a small part near her stern where she has around 100mm of armor (which is grossly inadequate). Nürnberg’s strengths are many, but so are her weaknesses. She retains the same above-average range - 16.5 km - as well as the torpedo layout of Königsberg, with two triple-tube launchers on each side of the ship. She is laid out almost identically, though Nürnberg’s stern turrets rests along the ship's centerline as opposed to Königsberg’s offset stern turrets. For starters, her guns reload faster, dropping from 7.5 seconds to 6 seconds between salvos. Players familiar with Königsberg will adapt to Nürnberg quickly while noting several improvements. Touted as a rival to the likes of Budyonny and Dallas at Tier VI, Nürnberg is a linear upgrade from her predecessor, Königsberg.
