There was also a slight thickness in the protective deck although this was still limited to the machinery spaces only. Like the earlier ships the ''Blonde'' class cruisers were too slow to perform their original duties. By the time they were completed the majority of new destroyers could reach at least 27 knots, making them two and a half knots quicker than the ships meant to lead them. Both HMS ''Blonde'' and HMS ''Blanche'' began their service careers with destroyer flotillas, ''Blonde'' as senior officers' ship for the 7th Flotilla and ''Blanche'' with the 1st Destroyer Flotilla, but for much of the war they were attached to specific Battle Squadrons to provide a close-in screen as the Battle Fleet operated. Both ships saw service in the First World War but were both converted to minelayers before its end and sold for scrapping after the end of hostilities.〔''Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships: 1906-1921'', p. 50〕
