You also need to be more precise:
- "ordinary" Gneisenau or EBB Gneisenau (1943)? If we are talking "ordinary" Gneisenau, that one has slightly more range than Andrea Doria, but only six guns compared to the AD's ten. Both can mount AA, but the Gneisenau's is better (KM40s overall). The Gnei is much faster than the AD. The Gnei 1943 can mount Bismarck guns (2nd set 14.96" L) that give it a pip more range than the normal Gneisenau.
- at-level crew? At-level, I'd say the AD experience is rather painful - getting outranged and not having the speed to make up for that. The ship comes into its own when your crew is way past the Gnei levels, in the 80s. Then the AD is agile and plays like a UK BB, as a brawler.
