The first CA Krasny is pretty awesome, comparable to hipper I guess but worse spread... The Kirov is better thought with the 2x10" or 3x7.1" guns. And the re-mod at lvl 54 is pure pwn. Seriously the Maxim Gorky is so fast and if you want you can put on some impressive amounts of armor. Currently im trying it with AW setup 2 front turrents of 3x7.1" and 15" belt armor and 30 bulge oooorrrrr 105 bulge and about 7 to 9" belt. And its a big success. Thought I have been harassed by certain people for awing a USSR ship whom apparently have the worst armor in game but with 15" belt it really doesnt matter which nation it is in Blitz.
Speed will be nerfed, while the armor whore capabilities was unintended; the large amounts of usable displacement comes from the fact that there are CA battles with prizes, and it to balance the MG against the P pro, it was decided that it should have enough displacement for a 120 crew+AA. The displacement may remain the same, but the speed and armor weight may increase.
@above, agreed with the tashkent, it's a great ship.
