My personal ALT-Dido would be based on the Amphion class rather than the Arethusa class and be armed with twelve 5.25in guns in six twin turrets that could fire at the specified 10-12 rounds per minute instead of the actual 7-8 rounds per minute. These would be in the roomier version of the twin 5.25" turret fitted to Vanguard.They'd displace 25% more (7,000 tons versus 5,600 tons) but only carry 20% more main armament (six twin turrets versus five) to account for the larger & heavier turrets and more rounds per gun in the magazines. It would also be able to take radar and more light AA guns more easily and the later ships of the class might not need to be fitted with five twin 5.25in turrets instead of six as weight compensation.
