Nowy krążownik pomocniczy :)

Dawno nie było żadnego krążownika pomocniczego :) Dlatego też dziś prezentuję taką jednostkę, zaadaptowaną z małego, stosunkowo szybkiego statku pasażerskiego. Okręt wykorzystuje pozostałe jeszcze dwa działa pozyskane z wraku krążownika Magdeburg, a dodatkowo dysponuje możliwością postawienia 52 min. Rysunek tym razem nie jest mój, ale autorstwa użytkownika HeuHen z forum shipbucket, przeze mnie został nieco tylko zmodyfikowany. Jednostka przez niego narysowana na tyle mi się spodobała, iż postanowiłem że musi znaleźć się w mojej flocie. Mam nadzieję, że również Wam przypadnie do gustu :)
