Alright, I know i'm going to get yelled at again, but I feel like this can be possible. I lengthened the Hull to allow some more Displacement.


If anything, would it be possible to ditch the two 18" and add a few 8-12" Cannons?

I know the Secondaries are anarchistic with the design, they are just acting as place holders right now.

I'm really not fond of how high the turrets are - in addition to making it look like your primary goal is to capsize the ship upon launching, it just looks aesthetically awkward. I would rather make the hull (even) longer and put the superfiring turrets at least one deck lower each.

Also I can spot a few pixel errors here and there. Not great, but noticeable. I'd consider looking here, here and here, but overall it's nothing really that bad.

Also I'm pretty sure the aft superstructure was just a rough placeholder heuhen had, so you might want to think about how you'd redraw that. But it looks more or less like a decent, intelligent kitbash given what it is.

correct!

This is an Alternate Version I was thinking of.
Question: Will the Lowered Deck for the Catapult work? or is it too low, there is also a Open-Roof Hangar that can fit one plane right in front/behind the catapult.


I THINK the 12 18's will work, as long as one doesn't fire all twelve at Simultaneously.

Also, Is there anything I should add?

The deck of the Catapult will get wet quickly because is too close to the water line,and i would suggest you use 5 turrets and you get more space for catapults

You need something like a factor of four or five more freeboard aft. Even with a flush deck aft this will be a very wet ship for her size.

If firing your main battery at once will put you in serious danger, you've done something wrong.

I suggest you step back and look at some real-life ships of this type. Right now it's several kinds of impossible and/or silly.

What If I ditched the 12 18" and swapped them out for 4 triple/quadruple 20 inches?

Triple 20" is quite possibly in excess of what is achievable with relevant materials technology. 20" quad... no and god no.

Why don't you take my suggestion and bring the superfiring turrets down a deck at least?

I believe I did for this Final one.
I think it's the Final at least.
