As to the cruiser, why 5"? Peru only uses 105mm and 150mm guns at the moment; do you really want to add another in-between caliber if you don't have to? And what's the 2" AA gun from? Existing ships use 88mm and 40mm

You're Peru now. I think the Villar and Grau could complement each other somehow (both being 32 knots with very similar capabilities IIRC) while you pursue other designs in regard to the Guise. Very nice design for the Guise

thanks Per, imho wouldnt 2 more 9X10" ships to operate with Villars have made more sence (just looking at it from a cost perspective and 2 9X10" would have ben about the same coast as the 8X12" ships)

True in the economic sense, but it was something called the Capitan Oyama looming south of us that also made up my mind.

Several countries have traditionally better relationships than represented by their overall alliances' relationships. For instance, the close relationship between Peru and India - at the same time Peru severed relationships with Persia after a tiff, and Peru and Japan have exchanged a few barbs. Siam and China have worked together in the past, too.
Mexico, a member of NATO, works with the Philippines and has naval ties to India and Japan, but I wouldn't call NATO and SATSUMA friendly. FAR and SATSUMA seem to be wary of each other but respectful, with the exception being Persia's constant saber-rattling against Russia, and accusations of Turkey being FAR's puppet.
And personally, I wouldn't have it any other way. I *like* to chat with the SATSUMA boys on occasion, because if I get too wrapped up talking only to members of my own alliance, I find I view people less as fellow gamers playing an opponent and more as enemies, which is an unhealthy and dangerous attitude.

One question I note about the new Guise design. The switch from 2x4 to 4x2 is interesting, but why have you selected a Q turret? Why aren't the turrets on the ends?
