128t a turret seems a reasonable price to pay for automated loading. I went with 150t/turret for the Philadelphia's (also simmed as triples not triples in twins). I took that number from the historical difference in weight between the historical Baltimore (303t) and the historical Des Moines (451t), then multiplied it by 4 to come up with 600t for automated loading.

My only remaining general comments are; of course some of these are concepts and others are going to be built. Has France the resources to develop three new automatic guns of 200mm, 152mm and 138mm at the same time? Canada of course has spread her programme over many years, the USA seems to be catching up with new automatic guns in the 8in and 6in classes. Britain has confined herself to just two projects. Is there scope to merge the 152mm and 138mm, perhaps a new calibre suited to DP work?
