Story :
The Darganne Class Cruisers were a class of five heavy cruisers built for the Z Navy in the late 1930s and early 1940s. They were the perfect balance between a light cruiser, and a heavy cruiser : a great speed, as well as an improved firepower, while retaining a smaller hull.
The Five cruisers main purpose was versatility : These ships could be used on every front, no matter the situation, pairing a variable calibre of guns, the "Lightning Beasts" as they were called, could get to a max speed of over 39 knots.
