here is what i wrote in another topic, if you are interested in knowing how to use the NH well. (This is for you, too, tex.)
"The NH is actually a whole lot better than most people say it is, so long as you can afford it and fully armor it. It costs 660k to buy and use, and another 400k to armor well. Its a far cry from the brooklyn's price, and nobody can afford the NH at level 38 (assuming this is their first and only crew).
If you get the NH, you must be lvl 40 and be able to have 700k at the time of purchase.
The NH can mount a good deal of armor. I use 2.5" deck and .5" belt for CL/CA games, and 1.5" deck and 3.3" belt for all welcome. I average a decent 15k per cl/ca game, and 25k for AW.
To use it well, you must have good gunners, and you must be able to aim well. If you can do that, along with dodge torpedos like mad and know how to use it in a CL/CA game, you will do fine. The NH slightly outranges M-pros, edinburghs, and brooklyns, but is outranged by york, mogamis, and pretty much everything else."
