By the outbreak of World War II, La Galissonnière was one of the best light cruisers in the world. In contrast to her predecessor, she featured good main battery guns and the best armor protection among ships of this type. In 1943, cruisers of this class received enhanced anti-aircraft armament and surveillance radars.

Submit Damage EntryEach month, WoWS Builds hosts a competition that challenges you to put up big numbers. Two ships are selected, one for Damage, one for Base XP. Score highest in each ship, and you'll get rewarded with some excellent prizes.
This month, we're taking it down to Tier V, with two popular ships at the tier. With the release of the French Battleship, Strasbourg this month, we thought having a French and German ship would be appropriate given the location of the city for which the battleship is named.
Headlining the Base XP competition is V La Galissonnière! This cruiser gets fast reloading and turning guns that allow you to beat up destroyers, harass BBs with HE, and punch through thin cruiser armor. For Damage, we're challenging you to take V Gaede and showcase you skill with her Hybrid disposition. Her decent torpedo armament can come in handy, but the ship really shines with the smoke/hydro combo that can outplay any enemy destroyer.
