User blog comment:Void Samukai/Worst Heavy Cruiser WW2/@comment-25373667-20151020224003

The best heavy cruiser of WWII hands down goes to Baltimore (but if we were counting postwar builds, then Des Moines FTW).

Worst heavy cruiser... this is genuinely a tough one. While many people would go with the Counties or the York class, or possiby the Italians, the Counties were actually decent at fulfilling their assigned duties IRL, though in every video game ever they suck balls. The Yorks were basically just Counties with one less turret and some more speed... so not a bad trade off.

The Italians... well, they were like their battleships. Excellent designs, good guns, CRAPPY armor, and they were poorly maintained/used. So I would be lax to say they were the worst.

Honestly, IDK. But if I were forced to vote... County class s***ter.
