Zao CLR: Tier X Japanese Heavy Cruiser 1941 (How to Obtain)

  Zao CLR: Tier X Japanese Heavy Cruiser 1941

Eight heavy cruisers were supposed to be built under the Japanese naval building program. They were a further development of the Takao, Tone, and Mogami classes. It was planned to arm these ships with twelve 203 mm guns in four turrets—a traditional arrangement. Their armor was designed to withstand 203 mm HE shell hits. The number of ships was later reduced to four, and their construction was then cancelled altogether.

Zao CLR Game Flag

Green, commonly associated with nature and harmony, is one of the most calming colors. In many cultures, it symbolizes prosperity, abundance, youth, and life itself. In Europe and the United States, the color green has historically related to wealth and status—in the Middle Ages, merchants, bankers, and the gentry wore green clothes to show their social status.
