The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The class was designed as a development of the earlier Brooklyn-class cruisers, the size of which had been limited by the First London Naval Treaty.
- The start of the war led to the dissolution of the treaty system, but the dramatic need for new vessels precluded a new design, so the Clevelands used the same hull as their predecessors but were significantly heavier.
- The Clevelands carried a main battery of twelve 6-inch guns in four three-gun turrets, along with a secondary armament of twelve 5 in dual-purpose guns.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The USS Birmingham article was read about 16,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
