How would Algérie fare against Mogami?

How would a fight between Algérie and a Mogami-class cruiser unfold?

Mogami would usually be favored, but both were vulnerable enough that the first accurate heavy salvo could determine the result.

Mogami carried more weapons and had stronger magazine protection, which generally favored the Japanese cruiser. In either the fifteen-gun six-inch or ten-gun eight-inch configuration, both ships remained vulnerable enough that the first effective hit could dominate the fight. Algérie's eight-inch shells gave her a real chance if she struck first. The comparison therefore turns on configuration and the opening accurate salvo as much as nominal armament totals.
