Averof is the only armored cruise in existence. After the naval battle of Lemnos, her crew called her "lucky uncle George" while the Turks called her "devil ship". She is over 100 years old and still treated as a commissioned ship in the Greek Navy. Within the first two years of her commissioning, she experienced an attempted mutiny and was the fleet flag ship during the two naval battles of the First Balkan War. She is probably the reason that most of the islands in the Northern Aegean Sea are Greek today, instead of Turkish.
