Destroyer Marceau was never laid down, and construction works were suspended after France declared war on Germany. Due to the defeat of France in the summer of 1940, the ship was never built. If the construction had continued after the war, the ship could have received American 127 mm dual-purpose guns.</p><p> </p></div>
A variant of the 3,000-ton reconnaissance project developed between 1939 and 1940, armed with post-World War II weapons, including a multi-purpose main battery.<br /><br />First released with Update 0.9.3 on 8 April 2020 in the Armory for 236,000 Coal.


|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->
===Pros===
{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
* High damage per minute.
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is the coal alternative to ''[[Kleber]]''. She shares ''Kleber's'' hull but her differences warrant a completely different play style. She mounts the 127mm guns of ''Colbert'', at the tradeoff of reduced HE alpha damage and slower shell ballistics in exchange for higher AP alpha. She also enjoys a concealment advantage over ''Kleber'', and has longer range torpedoes.
* Excellent turret traverse speed.
* High top speed.


''{{#var:ship_name}}'' differs from her sister ''Kleber'' in many ways, primarily her guns, which boast the highest DPM of any tier 10 destroyer. However, in exchange for the powerful guns, she still suffers from the lack of a smokescreen consumable, and her torpedoes are rather underwhelming due to their poor speed, mediocre range, and slow reload.  
===Cons===
* High detectability.
* Smoke Generator consumable unavailable.
* Short-range torpedoes.


This leads to a destroyer hunter type role, where she contests caps and runs down enemy destroyers with her extremely high speeds in order to make up for her poor concealment, while gunning them down with her powerful guns before quickly turning away and going dark to search for her next prey. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a poor counter to cruisers due to her poor ballistics, and her limited range means that unless the player takes upgrades, she must venture dangerously close to battleships to deal damage to them with her guns. Overall, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is best played as a destroyer hunter or as a battleship farmer, while also making a mediocre torpedo boat on the side.


For those more acquainted with the style of gunboat play, a different play style can be taken on by taking full advantage of ''Marceau'''s speed and damage output. At first, ''Marceau'' may hang back, using her speed and handling to fire at enemy battleships and cruisers with more sluggish shells that she can dodge. As the game progresses however, she can get closer to the battlefield, beginning to exhibit control of capture zones and hunt down enemy destroyers, as well as even rushing down battleships if the situation calls for it.

Overall this leads to a play style that revolves around her powerful guns, but is limited by her short range and poor ballistics. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a powerful destroyer with the potential to turn around games in the right hands.

The recommended upgrades for ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' are as follows:
* '''Slot 1''':  {{Main Armaments Modification 1}}.
* '''Slot 2''':  {{Engine Room Protection}}.  An interesting alternative is {{Engine Boost Modification 1}}. This special upgrade increases the duration of the engine boost to 270 seconds! Defensive AA Fire Modification is not recommended due to its selective utility.
* '''Slot 3''':  {{Aiming Systems Modification 1}} is the top pick for a generalist build, whereas players who want to specialize more towards a torpedo build can also use {{Torpedo Tubes Modification 1}}.
* '''Slot 4''':  {{Propulsion Modification 1}} is the undisputed choice. For fast destroyers like ''Marceau'', varying speed is a better dodging mechanism than steering.
* '''Slot 5''':  {{Concealment System Modification 1}}.
* '''Slot 6''':  {{Main Battery Modification 3}} to increase the firepower of the guns; she can afford the loss of traverse speed. One can take {{Gun Fire Control System Modification 2}} for extra main battery range, although with a commander who has the ''Main Battery & AA Expert'' skill this may be excessive. (Remember that while more range increases the reach of the guns, it also increases the range at which the ship can be spotted when firing.) While {{Torpedo Tubes Modification 2}} is an option, ''Marceau'' struggles to deal consistent damage with her torpedoes so it's not recommended to invest too heavily in the torpedo armament.

It's unlikely the French would have given this design the name ''Marceau'' as it conflicts with a Type 1936A (Mob) destroyer which had the same name and was in French Navy service from 1946 to 1958.

Marceau — France Special Tier X Destroyer.

In 1939, amid rising worldwide tensions, it was decided to continue building the leaders and increase the number of Mogador-class ships to six. Destroyer Marceau was never laid down, and construction works were suspended after France declared war on Germany. Due to the defeat of France in the summer of 1940, the ship was never built. If the construction had continued after the war, the ship could have received American 127 mm dual-purpose guns.

Pros

  • High damage per minute.
  • Excellent turret traverse speed.
  • High top speed.

Cons

  • High detectability.
  • Smoke Generator consumable unavailable.
  • Short-range torpedoes.
