TALAHASSEE
The Talahassee is the WC3-Cruiser (TCS-Ajax). She's a 30-something year-old cruiser. Appearance wise, she looks like a long, skinny, boxy Waterloo-Class without those wings, canards, and submarine-conning tower, who's launch-bay's been replaced by vent-like intakes. She has a small service area in the back which it's difficult to gauge size because the capships are scaled to a smaller scale than the fighters (otherwise it would take forever to fly past capships), but it's said that they can wedge six-fighters in the ship. She has a blue-thingie on the front of the ship which I have no idea what it does. It's got 4-AMG's and 8-laser turrets. She is, in total, 530 meters long.
GETTYSBURG
The Gettysburg-Class Cruiser seen in WC1-SM2 as the TCS-Austin. It's specs are not certain, in fact it's appearance isn't even. If Bandit (LOAF) is right, it looks like a really big Exeter-Class (I think most likely the game-designers didn't feel like making a new ship, and decided to scale up an Exeter instead).
It appears to be a large heavy-battleship type craft and carries approximately 10-18 fighters. It's bigger than the Bengal-Class which means it's over 700 meters (most Bengals are 690, but Zach Colson was saying that it's a bigger ship than the Tiger's-Claw too). Bandit (LOAF) stated that it's rougly comparible to the Concordia Supercruisers from the Movie, which yields a size of about 850-860 meters. It's probably the biggest war-era WC Cruiser. No idea what it's capabilities are. I guess it's like the USS Long-Beach CGN of Wing Commander (the USS Long-Beach, CGN-9, is a 721 or so foot-long cruiser).
WATERLOO
The Waterloo is actually the smallest of the 3 Cruisers, at 503.9 meters. In appearance it looks like a giant delta-winged airplane, with canards, a nose taken off of a good-year blimp, a submarine-conning tower on top of the nose, a really tall sloping hill-like hangar which eventually reaches the main conning-tower with two tall towers beside them. Beside the hangar-hill are two bays with runways-- centerlines and all, which run down the wing. It is complete with a green and yellow paint-job. It's wings have somewhat of a taper, and ahnedral. It makes the wings look like they are really sharply swept forward when they really are not.
While the Waterloo's look stupid in my opinion and look like a blimp, an airplane, a submarine conning tower, with a big hangar shed, two doors, and two runways slapped on, with two fins all slapped together. They are definetly the most capable ships.
They have a gigantic fighter compliment for a cruiser-- I don't know what the hell happened with WC2-- the fighters got tiny, the Cruisers carry fighters, and even the Ralatha carried 23 fighters, but Waterloo's carry 40 fighters-- that's as much as the Ranger-Class CVL. They do carry WC2 AMG's, and these are the kind that bypass shields, not the slow-moving yellow bolts which do 300 points of damage, but don't bypass shields. They don't have many smaller guns-- they have 3 flak cannons. They seem to be very multi-role, doubling as carriers in addition to Cruisers. They are fast too! At 200 kps, they are probably one of the fastest war-era cruisers. I think these things were probably superior in every way to the CVE's except speed. Honestly, they should have just souped up a bunch of Waterloo's and used them as Escort Carriers, they would have been able to carry Broadswords, and Cruisers are plentiful.
Either way, I like the Waterloo the most out of all the cruisers. Now if it didn't look so cartoony, I would have REALLY liked it even more. Of course, in reality, function beats form any-day, but this is scifi-- why not have a little bit of both
