Rear Admiral Eihendorf's fleet had the following breakdown which I think might be considered "standard" for Imperials: 200-250 battleships (11.17-15.34%) 400-500 cruisers (22.35-30.67%) 1000 destroyers (55.87-61.35%) 30-40 carriers (1.68-2.45%) The carrier dimensions for both sides are battleship scale or larger and the Imperial carrier comes with a large capital ship armament (especially it looks like a superheavy battleship with a hanger module slapped on top). The number of fast battleships is not stated and so their numbers are lumped in with the normal BB's. Their numbers probably aren't very high though, with the exception of Bittenfeld's fleet which uses them as their main strength. I'm personally guessing around 1/3 of the total BB count is fast BB. The extremely low percentage of carriers in this Imperial fleet seems to reinforce the idea that the Imperials are not big proponents of carrier warfare and are of the "big guns" mentality. (As the Thor Hammer, the superheavy BB's of the nobles, and the Ahsgrimm demonstrate). Although their standard battleships are listed as carrying 12 Valkyries each, their use in battle appears more of an adjunct than as a striking arm of its own, sort of like the British Navy's view towards airpower earlier this century. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Get more from the Web.
