User blog:Void Samukai/Worst Heavy Cruiser WW2

Well, I'm back. And today, we will be looking at the worst heavy cruisers of WW2. For this list, please tell us the heavy cruisers that were utter garbage during the Second World War and reasons why.

Few things to note:

1) Old doesn't mean obsolete. Just because a heavy cruiser was older than another doesn't automatically mean it is worst. Eg, Japan's Aoba and Furutaka classes are seen as more successful than some of the later classes.

That being said

2) Consider the age and role of the ship. No point in comparing a 1920 ship built for scouting to a 1940 ship built for AA duties, then saying that one of them sucks because they couldn't do well in one specific area that the other excels. Cruisers were made differently, and Heavys are no exception.

3) The ships must've seen some combat service in a heavy cruiser configuration during WW2. If they were sunk prior to the war, or were used after the war, then they don't count. Also, the Mogami class would count as Heavy cruisers because they were up-gunned before the war.

4) The Alaska class is not a Heavy Cruiser, so is invalid. The Deutschland class (1935) however will count

5) Just because the country of the cruiser lost the war should not mean it is thw worst heavy cruiser.

6) All rules of good behaviour and manners that are enforced on Chat Blogs and this Wikia apply here as well.

So, now that the rules are set, let the dissing begin.
