My anachronistic design for the Cressy class

My 1910 version of the Cressy class greatly outperforms the original. That seems to be largely due to the later building date and newer technology. I kept the dimensions and displacement, but went with a somewhat heavier armament (4-9.2in and 12-6in guns). The layout is very similar to my other anachronistic designs. This is the Springsharp report:
