Here's our First Look at Tier IX German battleship Prinz Rupprecht. Rupprecht is a pretty natural upgrade from Tier VIII's Zieten, including notably improved aesthetics. She brings more firepower - both guns and torpedoes - as well as a return to the better stealth we saw at Tiers VI and VII. There's a lot to like about Rupprecht, but she has to be very careful about what engagements she enters into with her low health pool. Let's discuss further.
