Here's our First Look at Tier VIII Premium American (super)cruiser USS Congress. Like De Zeven Provinciën a few days ago, she enters a very crowded field of cruisers at Tier VIII; unlike De Zeven Provinciën, she offers something quite unique at Tier VIII. She is clearly based on Tier IX's USS Alaska, but how similar is she really? Join me as we peel away the layers and find out.
