Thanks guys!

No, the battle of the North Cape was a tough one for the Scharnhorst.
It was a well planned trap by the brittish.
The Scharnhorst had a chance to escape after the first encounter with the brittish cruisers of Force I, but didn't take it as I recall. Then it was too late and Force II with the more heavily armed Duke of York caught her on radar at some 40km distance.
By this time the brittish radar was far more developed, and Scharnhorst lost her radar early in the battle.
So she got hammered to pieces by an enemy she couldn't see. They could only aim at flashes from the brittish guns.

The HMS Belfast which was part of Force I in the battle is allready in the demo.
There is no brittish battleship yet, but I do think it's time to model a KGV class and add it.
