Player Opinion

Performance

Affectionately called "Pepsi-cola" due to her light armor, or the "Penance-cola" or "Painsacola" due to the notion that she is a penitent for all the dastardly and evil things done by her predecessor Cleveland, the Pensacola is the first heavy cruiser within the American cruiser line---though "heavy" in this case refers strictly to her 8" guns and not to any sort of durability. The light armor of the Pensacola makes her one of the most derided cruisers of her tier, with the tendency to take heavy penetrating and citadel hits regardless of angle. A stand-up fight in Pensacola against anything larger than a destroyer will end in a pyrrhic victory at best and an instant demise at worst.

Instead, Pensacola functions best as an ambush predator. Her concealment and solid AA suite are useful tools in sneaking into a flanking position alongside an approaching enemy, whereupon Pensacola can unleash her devastating 10-gun salvo upon surprised victims. Her AP shells are particularly potent when upgraded, being able to sink cruisers that show anything resembling a broadside with just one or two well-placed salvoes. Firing over islands can also be a good way to take advantage of her firepower without risking too much damage in return. If forced to fight in the open, Pensacola can make a decent kiter with her excellent rudder shift, though she has the disconcerting habit of taking massive damage from the few shells she doesn't manage to dodge.

Pros:

Heavy salvo of 10 guns with excellent damage and ballistics
Decent turret traverse when fully upgraded
Solid AA, especially with Defensive Fire
Fairly good concealment after 0.6.1

Cons:

About as well-armored as a can of cola; frequently takes citadel hits from any angle
Teeth-gritting stock grind

Research

B hull is recommended first, as the extra hit points and improved rudder shift will greatly improve Penascola's survivability. This should be followed by the upgraded guns for the better traverse and muzzle velocity. Finally, the range upgrade will provide a welcome extra range buffer should the situation demand it.
