I came very late to the Atlanta-game ... Christmas box as a matter of fact. I always wanted one, but I felt like I wouldn't do her any justice with the fragility and low range issues - but I ended up with one, and as stated, it's a very polarizing ship. I'm not what you'd call a "Cruiser player" .. more like a "I'm still trying to sort it out" Cruiser player - but some battles are hilarity, while others are shameful displays and reminders of Pensacola of old. I still like the little bugger though - especially after stretching the gun range out to 13.3
