Elgb's "Better than World of Warships" EDGES!!!

Main: The German warship has the edge in terms of speed, range and firepower. But the Colorado has the edge in terms of design and the more devastating torpedo tubes. In the end, I have to give this to the Colorado warship since the captains driving them knows fully well its capabilties and how to use it in battle. EDGE: Nimitz

Cruiser: Easy edge to the Northampton. There is a reason why the Northampton is a tried and true warship who's fought in battles the US needs it to fight in. The ship has the faster speed, the longer range and the more devastating firepower. The Konigsberg does have some mines in it which is good for defense and escaping, but that's the only advantage it has. EDGE: Nimitz

Destoryer: The Narvik obviously has the faster speed but that's the only major advantage it has. The Sumner has the longer range, as well as superior in firepwoer both in quantity and quality. Its got more batteries and a torpedo tube to boot. It also has a dual rudder for better maneuvership, especially when ships are trying to get into positions for firing. EDGE: Nimitz

Submarine: Again this is tough. Its world knowledge for any common man that "u-boats" of Germany were the most feared and respected in WWII. But again the Balao isn't something to just dismiss. It serverely beats the Type 7 in terms of speed. But the German sub can go deeper than the Balao. However, in the end the Balao has more torpedo tubes, guns and even a canon battery. The Germans are probably the better drivers of submarines but they are severely bear in arnament. EDGE: Nimitz

X-Factors: I have ti give this one again to Nimitz. He's a graduate and trained in two Naval Institutions, has a decent military career and the dude was a monster commander in the Pacific War. Donitz has a longer military career but his battles were fewer and far in between (probably ebcause there were more water to fight in the Pacific Theatre than the European Theatre). Nimitz was also up against a far deadlier enemy, the Japanese, who basically considered the sea their home (to the point that the Japanese put all their funds in warships than tanks). They were so tough in fact that they basically destroyed most Allied Navies in the Pacific (although they got severely beat in the Battle off Samar). Donitz tactics seems to be well-planned, but a en masse assault would be devastated when up against a more defesnive enemy.

Deadliest Warrior?

I'm not knoweldgeable when it comes to sea warfare, but with the info given I have to give this one to Chester Nimitz. Better and superior warhsips overall as well as better x-factors and tactics. Seriously wherever you look at it, Nimitz trumped Donitz in battleships and subs. Donitz experience and knowledge would allow him to give Nimitz some difficulty but in the end superior American engineering destroys German's (reverse Jojo reference anyone?)
