The cruiser balances are in the wrong direction imo.
Furutaka: is overall barely buffed with the Japanese HE nerf, it needs to be drastically improved to bring it to the same effectiveness as the Omaha (now with longer range).
Aoba: already performed worse than the Cleveland before the HE nerf, now it needs to be buffed to bring it to the same effectiveness as the Cleveland.
Myoko: was a viable Tier VII cruiser, now hit with two nerfs (HE nerf and ROF), it doesn't need two nerfs, the HE nerf is (more than) enough
Pensacola: is a subpar ship for Tier VII, needs to be buffed to the level of pre-nerf Myoko, instead of bringing the Myoko down to Pensacola's crappy level.
Mogami: 203 version was subpar for Tier VIII, 155 version was viable, needs to buff the 203 version, instead of nerfing the 155 version, especially now with the Japanese HE nerf.
New Orleans: is a subpar ship for Tier VIII, needs to be buffed to the same effectiveness as the pre-nerf 155 Mogami.
