Another try at my Ger/DL/1914 design

The design of the Ger/DL/1914 was inspired by the German ships, some built for Russia, that had three stacks and 4-4.1in guns, with 6-TT. By taking care of the SHP/ton issue, the design works well. A drawback of the basic concept is that it is low-volume, above and below the waterline.
