Jemmapes and Valmy
Turret vessels of about 3.4m freeboard with an appreciable tumblehome.
The 340mm guns were fore and aft with the 100mm in the superstructure,
and the quarterdeck was much strengthened to stand the firing of the
after 340mm. There were two funnels and a military foremast. The 340mm
were very powerful guns for their day and of the same type as in the Brennus.
