They armed them with captured German weaponry. In game that would translate too: Hitpoints: slightly larger than the Kuma I would expect around 25 000 hp Main battery: 6 105mm L/55 known as secondaries from many German ships Reload time: 4 seconds HE damage: 1 700 All the other stats would be the same as the German gun Torpedo tubes: 4x3 standard French 6km torps AA: the main battery is DP so 50 damage at 4,5km the high tier French 57mm 6x2 78 damage at 4,5km Speed: 40 knots All in all it would be an Italian ship with German weapons in the French tech tree. So a real Pan-European ship ;). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's like adding Khabarovsk as a tier 5 CL... No, it should be at least a tier 8 DD or even a tier 9 freemium. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The armament is so weak for a cruiser that everything above Tier V would wreck it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know that WG can totally go nuts with their stats and make it a pretty decent tier 8/9 ? Benson got 5 guns after all. Just give them Akizuki stats or something and we're done with it. But making a low tier CL out of a tier X DD hull doesn't sit well with me at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just sayin'. That would be the best thing, in my book. But the DD line is well beyond the horizon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
