    If any of you really want a destroyer I can make you a hull and main turrets for either a USN Gearing, or a IJN Akizuki, and hay lets remember in some battles these little guys can re-arm and in all battles they only have a 2 minute rule not a 5 minute, so they can be nasty!

    I have molds for both USN Gearing and IJN Akizuki, the Akizuki is actually longer than a Gearing and was often mistaken as a Cruiser, but under IRCWCC both have 1.5 units so a nice SPurt Gun (full unit) and a half unit pump and you got a dangerous little tiger there, and in things like convoy where they can re-arm, they become really nasty.

    Yeah I was looking up the Akizuki's stats last night and at 440 ft long, might be one of the easier destroyers to fit everything into.

    If you really want a destroyer I can make both
    IJN Akizuki and USN Gearing destroyers from molds I have
    but I would not say these are beginner friendly as
    everything needs to be kept light and battling them
    is a different fish also.

    Go with the Kent then later build the destroyer
    if not I have a nice Cruiser mold later you can try
    also (IJN Mogami)Good in IRCWCC, Awesome in MWC.

    $100 + shipping. ($90 was the one time only Sean-only price) Still a good price for a usable cruiser hull.

    As a cruiser, it won't stand and deliver like a BC or BB... it's not supposed to. It will be good running around and shooting from a safe distance.

    If you mean, how will the hull stand up to BB gunfire, then it'll take it with no problems.

    It is a fiberglass hull, and in MWC fast gun it is 3 units.
