Not really. Add .01 knots of speed and she's in the clear. (Refer to Walter's LRMPS ship)

Well, yes. That should be true for <200ts vessels where we special rules anyway and where I really wanted the "strained by open sea conditions" remark.
The Mehrzweckboot is larger and cannot be build to the small boat rules. I´d say it has to be build to the standard rules.

"Equal to or greater" is fine for me, although I personally tend to read it as "greater". But seriously, what difference is there between 24kn and 24,01kn?

Still, a few changes. Less armour except on the deck, larger secondary armament, longer length, a lot fewer torpedoes, and a lot better of a seaboat.

If you add an additional 105mm mounting aft you're very close to the modified Fijis. As such I think you might need to think about a couple of extra feet on the beam for stability.
It seems a solid enough design and well sized to replace Emden, but is that what Germany needs? The Karlsruhe-Class isn't that much more expensive and commonality is always good. I can see why like-for-like replacements are popular, but I'm not sure it's always right. I wouldn't have thought numbers to be very important for Germany; If the navy needs two new cruisers, they might as well be a bit bigger and more capable.

These ships are less expensive, but the difference is pretty small. 6000tons extra for two ships out of a budget of 124,000tons per year? It doesn't appear to be a large amount.
As leaders for Flotillas of destroyers they make more sense, but doesn't Germany already have a bunch of large destroyers with 150mm guns that'd be better in this role?

...hmm, not to be rude or anything, but it sort of seems like Germany needs more than just two new light cruisers...I'd possibly think about laying down 4-6 to begin with, but I don't control Germany.
