Ship:Numancia

11,000 doubloons

Numancia — Spain Premium Tier VIII Cruiser.

A variant of a "Washington Treaty" cruiser project proposed to the Spanish Navy by the Vickers-Armstrongs company, was based on the Emerald-class hull but equipped with seven 203 mm guns in one (bow) three-gun and two twin-gun turrets. To ensure space saving for the propulsion unit, a linear arrangement of the boiler and engine rooms was adopted. The ship was supposed to be faster than her original and have a catapult; however, preference was given to the project variant that became the basis for the Baleares class of ships.

Pros

• Guns can shoot a series of salvos
• Rapid torpedo tube reload
