This makes [[Yuubari]] an occasionally viable option over Ooyodo in certain maps.+ − *** In terms of fuel consumption, [[Yuubari]]'s is lower than [[Ooyodo]]'s. While it may not be much, it is certainly something to be taken into consideration.+ − *** [[Katori]] is a unique CL that classified as CT or (Training Cruiser), aside from average stat, she has a unique ability to increase rewarded EXP from PvP and currently the only ship that fulfill Expedition 32, in which gain a fair amount of EXP for player. Her rarity is not Holo, indicate that she will be available for new player at future update.+ − + − + − *** Their second remodel at level 50 gives a very high boost to stats and an extra equipment slot that allows them to equip double guns along with [[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] and grants them a very special position in the fleet. − *** Their preemptive strike is very strong and useful as it gives them more attacks than the typical ship and can help eliminate more dangerous enemy ships before they have a chance to retaliate − − − − * Light Cruisers that can equip Seaplanes can perform [[Combat#Artillery Spotting|Artillery Spotting]] attacks during day battles. Slots that have zero seaplanes can not perform Artillery Spotting, and this can also occur when recon planes are shot down to reach zero (specifically noted in recon phase). − ** The typical setup for this is to use two [[20.3cm Twin_Gun_Mount|20.3cm]] or [[15.5cm Triple Gun Mount (Main)|15.5cm(Main)]] guns with a recon seaplane. The use of the 20.3cm variants ([[20.3cm(no.2)_Twin_Gun_Mount|no.2]] and [[20.3cm(no.3)_Twin_Gun_Mount|no.3]] ) provides a good bonus to damage. − ** [[20.3cm Twin Gun Mount|20.3cm]] is overweight for CL in terms of real history, but as for the game, there's currently no proof of any adverse effect if equipped on a CL. However, the accuracy bonus of the 15.5cm is a highly considerable trade-off for the +1 damage of the standard 20.3cm − * Light Cruisers with the ability to use Artillery Spotting and high firepower and armour can almost be comparable to weaker CA in terms of damage. Light Cruisers have relatively low consumption and can be a good choice to save resources when farming maps. − ** One difference is that Light Cruisers will always attack SS when present. This can be a disadvantage when it is not desired.

General Notes:
*Light Cruisers that can equip Seaplanes can perform [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Artillery_Spotting Artillery Spotting] attacks during day battles. With the ability to equip all medium guns coupled with lower resource costs, this makes CLs functionally weaker CAs.
**One difference is that Light Cruisers will always attack SS when present. This can be a disadvantage when it is not desired.
