WoWS: New ships – Closed Test 12.5
Spanish cruiser Numancia and Italian battleship Ruggiero di Lauria have been added to the game for testing.
Spanish cruiser Numancia, Tier VIII
One of the “Washington cruiser” designs proposed to the Spanish Navy by Vickers-Armstrongs was based on the hull of the Emerald-class ships, but with seven 203-mm guns in one triple- and two twin-gun turrets. In order to keep the power plant compact, a linear arrangement of the boiler rooms and engine rooms was adopted.

However, preference was given to the version of the project that became the basis for the Canarias class.
