Talk:Imperial Battleship/@comment-5982863-20140511022703

I had thought about that, but it also seemed that they would have gotten a lot of practice at building the ships. Even the British, the most experienced in the world at building battleships, had just started a few decades before with the genre of technology, and just a few years for Dreadnoughts themselves. The Imperials have millenia worth of time building battleships, and centuries at least of building just this class. You can only go so far with production of them of course, but it seems like there would have been signficant cost reductions in both the ships and their technology to even it out to an extent.

Or i've been playing too much Hoi3 anyway and think of everything in terms of IC practical...
