I like the concept of a cruiser design armed with 7.5 inch guns in triple turrets. It saves weight that can be used to upgrade the flimsy armour most Treaty cruisers carried. Just a few points: The cranes appear a little small. When viewed from the top only half the number of pom-pom barrels (except...

However, for what it's worth, I do not think either ship could have been fitted triple 14" turrets aft unless modifications were...

The 9" belts were fitted during 1918-21 (Repulse) and 1923-26 (Renown). This, along with increased deck, slope, barbette armour and new anti torpedo bulges added some 4,000 tons to each of their displacements. Maximum speed was reduced from 32.5 knots to 30.75 knots.

He takes us back to the pre-dreadnought era or thereabouts with some fine renderings of early and interesting Italian and Japanese cruisers.

Nice one Rowdy and a big thank you too. As soon as my order for Furies is filled I'll be sending a note for Firebolts. Just have to check and see how much Monopoly money I have left. :lol:
