A Northampton-class vessel, Chicago served in the Pacific during the early years of World War Two. Though surviving attacks by midget submarines in Sydney Harbour and serving in the battle of the Coral Sea and Savo Island in 1942, it was at the Battle of Rennell Island that she was sunk on 30 January 1943, when she was struck by Japanese aerial torpedoes whilst escorting a convoy bound for Guadalcanal.

This cruiser can also be found in the Battle for the Pacific Victory at Sea starter set.
