It resulted in a project for a cruiser with eight 203 mm guns in four turrets, an echelon propulsion plant, and a flush-deck hull. According to that project, the ship had a catapult and seaplane hangar. The construction plan was not implemented, and further development led to the appearance of heavy cruisers of the Trento class.</p><p> </p></div>


|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->
===Pros===
{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
* Pro 1
The third Tier 5 cruiser in the game with 203mm main guns after ''[[Furutaka]]'' and ''[[Exeter]]'', ''Genova's'' performance is centered around her main battery. Like other Italian cruisers, her HE shells have been replaced with SAP shells. These perform similarly to HE shells with good penetration, but cannot start fires. To take advantage of this ship's firepower, it is key to learn which ships in her matchmaking spread can be penetrated reliably with which ammunition. Heavily armored BBs which will require you to fire AP into the superstructure when angled can often be devastated by SAP into the broadside. Meanwhile, the powerful AP may citadel some angled cruisers while nearly always over-penetrating others. Becoming familiar with these situations is key to your success.
* Pro 2


The guns have significant but easily mitigable weaknesses. It is key to remain near your somewhat short maximum firing range, which will increase your survivability tenfold while taking advantage of your guns' strong characteristics. The turrets have very poor rotation speed, further weakening ''Genova'' in knife fights and when caught unaware. Finally, in exchange for their atypical caliber, the reload is a miserable 20 seconds. Fortunately, above-average concealment allows the ship to take advantage of disappearing between powerful strikes. Good planning and clear foresight will keep these traits from being your frustrating end.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


''Genova'' may be comfortable against any opponent, but she truly excels against other cruisers. Her armor, health, and shell performance make her a frightening foe for her generally smaller peers.


In most other cases, the ship is quite average. Her armor is above-average, but it remains forgettable cruiser armor to large guns. Speed is slightly above average, and she has a somewhat sluggish rudder. AA defenses are functional but they're not likely to scare away any strike craft on their own.

''Genova'' lacks a Hydroacoustic Search. This is probably her greatest weakness as compared to her cruiser peers at Tier V. Combined with the ship's length and rudder, it makes remaining aware of enemy torpedo vessels paramount, while precluding aggressive DD hunting.

Genova — Italy Premium Tier V Cruiser.

In 1923, Italy began working on the design of a "Washington cruiser" that had a displacement of up to 10,000 tons and was equipped with 203 mm guns. It resulted in a project for a cruiser with eight 203 mm guns in four turrets, an echelon propulsion plant, and a flush-deck hull. According to that project, the ship had a catapult and seaplane hangar. The construction plan was not implemented, and further development led to the appearance of heavy cruisers of the Trento class.
