I tried out the Deutschland-class BB and had some serious problems with spotting. I was coming through the Kattegat (after spending about 30 minutes trying to maneuver her out of her berth at Kiel - big ships are not as nimble as my old Type VIIB!) and in clear skies and calm seas my crew didn't detect a neutral Danish medium freighter until it was about 200m off my port beam. I looked out the bridge view and saw another Danish coastal freighter just aft of the first freighter that hadn't even been spotted - it couldn't have been more than 400m from my ship!

Anyone else experienced this? I've also tried the early destroyer, but didn't make any contact with the enemy on my first patrol (though it seemed to have no problem spotting things in Wilhelmshaven).
