You might want to consider the KGV class too, however, be warned that to get there you'll be using two-three rather slow battleships in the process. Those battleships are slow but durable, but the KGV is faster though a bit less tough. You might want to go the British battlecruiser line early on, as you'll have more speed that way.

I would also recommend the German line to Scharnhorst, as you are already on your way there it seems.
