Interesting thing is - the elderly designers in WesWorld favoured rather slow vessels with thick armor and standard to superior number of guns.
Since some month now we see more and more designs advocating speed over guns and armour.
Is it just the change in players or is there other reason?

I dont know about what the other players think but I like the Outrun what you cant outgun rather than the WW Die in a blaze of glory philosophy

The Outrun what you can't outgun isn't a bad philpsophy, but 34 or 35 knots should be sufficient in your first cruiser design. Also, the Germans thought of that strategy too, with their "pocket battleships" in OTL and look what happened to Admiral Graf Spee.

WW2 modern Battleships were 30-34kts so a 33-35kts Cruiser is just target practice not to mention Destroyers with that speed
