The ''Nürnberg'' was first observed at the [[Battle of the Corridor]] in {{d|800|uc}}, with the Bayerlein Fleet under Fleet Admial [[Mittermeyer]]'s command. ({{logh|080}}) The ''Nürnberg'' next fought at the [[Second Battle of Rantemario]] during [[Oskar von Reuenthal]]'s rebellion, where Bayerlein's fleet was lured into a trap by Fleet Admiral Reuenthal's own detachment. The ''Nürnberg'' and its fleet were ultimately saved by timely intervention by Fleet Admiral Mittermeyer. It also fought at the [[Battle of Shiva]].

Its frame takes the curved armour technology demonstrated on the ''[[Brünhild]]'' to its limit, combined with high output shield generators. Its main weapons follow the example first set by the '''Brünhild''' of having all its main weapons in hidden recessed mountings. Dotted around the ship are small antennas, that enable the flagship to maintain contact with each ship's navigator. In addition it allowed for realtime status updates on condition of each ship including such things as the amount of energy remaining for each ship, remaining missile ammunition status, damage reports, and the fatigue level of the crew. The difference in design philosophy behind this smaller mass flagship and the more massive old ''[[Wilhelmina]]'' flagship class could be seen as symbolic of the difference in style of rule between [[Reinhard von Lohengramm]] and the old Goldenbaum nobles. The rule of the latter had been as a crushing weight to their subjects. The hangar at the rear was a half open slit shaped hangar design like that used on the ''[[Garga Falmul]]''. Small craft recovery with the style of launch ports used on the old standard [[Imperial battleship (788 UC era)|battleships]] had demanded a higher degree of skill from pilots than landing with this newer hangar design. The potential hazards of having such a large opening in the rear of the ship was known. Like the '''Garga Falmul''', the protocol was for all engines to maintain thrust during combat operations so as to make targeting the hangar difficult for the enemy. In the event of enemy fire hitting the hangar, the rationale was that the half open design would channel any explosion outwards, reducing damage to the rest of the ship. Secondary engines were mounted on top and below each main engine. These were for use in atmosphere.

[[File:Nuernberg (FFC).jpg|thumb|right|190px|FFC drawing]] ===Apocrypha=== ====Fleet File Collection==== The ''Nürnberg'' is included as a model in {{ffc|6|full}}. In a 'Reader Memo' in {{ffc|6|full}}, it is mentioned that the future could consist of ships like the '''Nürnberg''' leading thousands of ships like the ''[[Valendown]]'' since the former was the herald of a new generation of flagships while the latter was the prototype for a new standard battleship design. {{navbox/flagships/Empire}} [[Category:Imperial vessels]]
