Slot 3: Aiming Systems Modification 1 improves her accuracy.Slot 2: Damage Control System Modification 1.Slot 1: Main Armaments Modification 1 keeps her guns active and firing.The recommended upgrades for New Orleans are as follows: 2 for an extra 10% range on the main battery.Ĭaptains should grab Hull (B) first for the added health, then move on to the range upgrade.
Gun Fire Control System: Upgrade to Mk7 mod. Research of this module unlocks progression to Baltimore. Hull: Upgrade to Hull (B) for more hitpoints, more anti-air capabilities, and better rudder shift time. The later stages of the game can offer more opportunities to be aggressive, whether it is hunting down enemy destroyers or ambushing enemy cruisers.Īvailability of researchable upgrades for New Orleans is as follows: She must use islands and concealment to contribute in the early game without taking too much fire. Despite this, pushing in at the beginning of a battle is an extremely hazardous proposition as her armor is still inadequate protection against battleships, especially considering her mediocre health pool. When fully specialized for concealment she has a 10.6 km detection radius by sea. She has the same excellent gun performance as the Pensacola. Her AA suite is also somewhat better, though it is not until Tier VIII's Baltimore that American heavy cruiser anti-aircraft defenses become truly fearsome. 
A stocky ship, it should come as to no surprise that her armor is a vast improvement from Pensacola (not hard to do), allowing her to at least handle herself in cruiser duels. New Orleans is basically a melding of Pensacola, Northampton, and Portland - currently represented by Tier VII Premium cruiser Indianapolis - and shows herself as a new shift in US heavy cruisers. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".
