Hmm. Twenty-six thousand tons are also barely sufficient.
No wonder everyone else has paper for armor.
Fourteen-inch guns may actually be too powerful for this era.
Britain is already going around with fifteen-inchers though.
24 thousand tons would seem to make for a fast Battle Cruiser that is mainly meant to destroy Cruisers and punish thin-skinned battlewagons.
As much armor as possible to survive being in the battle line, because of course ADOBO would do that.
Other Battle Cruisers are to be punished for _existing_.
That reminds me, ADOBO hasn't been around lately.
What has she been doing the six months I was blinkered?
>> CA ADONTBE> We... we ran out of money, so we were doing side jobs as MPs and anti-smuggling operators.
But our smugglers
_are_ CA LECHON and CA FANTASTICA.
Are we... double-dipping?
(from a distance)
>> CA ADOBO> RAM THEM UNTIL THEY GIVE UP!
Is collateral damage the reason your paychecks are bottomed out?
>> CA ADONTBE> For ADOBO it is.
>> CA ADONTBE> I have many... pets... to take care of.
I only have six million.
ADOBO is going to have to wait to incarnate in a new hull.
(from a distance)
>> CA ADOBO> YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME!
>> CA ADOBO> WHERE'S MY MONEY HONEY?!
ANTI-smuggling, you say?
>> CA ADONTBE> Um. Okay, to be honest it pretty much is a protection racket.
