During the years before the First World War, the German High Seas Fleet worked out a doctrine that asked a great deal of its scouting forces. They would precede the battle fleet, seeking out the enemy and screening the battleships from the opposing scouting forces. Meanwhile, the cruisers would also be detached for lengthy overseas assignments; unlike the Royal Navy, the Germans did not build enough such ships to keep such assignments distinct.

The actual outbreak of war brought more burdens. The British Grand Fleet had overwhelming numerical superiority, and so the battle cruisers with their supposed speed advantage would be called upon to provide heavy support for light cruisers conduct commerce raids and minelaying missions, or to conduct provocative bombardments of the English coast.

Golden Journal No. 46: Iron Dogs is all about the battle cruisers that fought the Battle of Dogger Bank, German and British. To make play of the Dogger Bank scenarios in Jutland Second Edition and Jutland: Dogger Bank more fun, this volume of the Journal has giant-size pieces for the battle cruisers (and one big armored cruiser) that fought or could have fought at Dogger Bank. They’re the same size as the ones we used for ZeppelinsLand Cruisers and Rome at War, and fit (just barely) on the Great War at Sea Naval Tactical Map.
