To play well as them, you must learn and properly use the characteristics of your ship. In general, cruisers are quite fast, they can sail with speed of around 30 knots. However, they don't have good maneuverability. They have good fire power, but they might have trouble with shooting far away enemy ships or well armored battleships. They have very weak secondary artillery. Some cruisers additionally have one or more torpedoes launchers. It can be very useful on short distance. The amount of secondary artillery positions varies and depends only on specific ship model. In general, you shouldn't have much trouble with enemy airplanes.

The differences between Japan and American cruisers aren't large. Americans have more anti aircraft main artillery cannons. However, it has smaller caliber, thus dealing less damage, and additionally it has smaller range. The difference are well visible with torpedoes, Japan has better ones. American ships are more agile than their Japanese counterparts, despite the fact that maximum speed is the same in both cases.
