I know I am terribly short on cruisers.
But I lost 2 Ulans in the war, so I am down to 5.

I promise to build more :).
And I use my VTE avisos for 2nd line duties usually performed by PCs.

Avisos, old protected cruisers and 23.99kts ACs are not counted.

The Lena class IMO belongs to this category.

I would put them in the Frigate category, as they are very similar to the DKB Molkte-class.
