Sensational!

Great Work Karle94 - Love the attention to detail and nuance of the Greek and Austrian ships and the general quality and completeness of the South American and Turkish Dreadnoughts. Great to see them all represented to the same standard and as a complete set.

Thank you for this effort.

Go to page 160 and it will give you a blueprint of Design 702 offered to Portugal.

Like many countries they were quite optimistic and had allocated money for 3 ships. The Spanish wanted no less than six, and the Dutch wanted 9.
