Would it be better to classify at least ooRP that the Bretonia Battleship is more of a pocket battleship due to its low armour and rather medium profile?

Wouldn't it put it in a more of a raiding role over straight up fights with its battleship counterparts?

Tis a medium battleship, its pretty deadly really can avoid shots pretty good...

Although I'd just cruise up and clusterf00k it to death with my Kusari BS if it was alone =P

actually the current discovery "Battlecruiser" class fits "pocket battleship" description much better.

Back in vanilla, the Bret BS used to be pretty badass, actually.

Right now, it's RP is kinda funny. the "Symbolic and actual representation of Bretonia's military might" part actually cracks me up, as it's no where near is giant or mindblowing as its infocard suggests. It is an advanced battleship that is very hard to fly but maintains certain advantages over most other ship in the hands of a very experienced pilot.

On a slightly related subject, bret caps need love, so remember, hug your local shrimp-flyer.

Let it burn.

Bull, a transport never has more displacement than a warship given the similar hull types.

e.g. a Super tanker carrying lots of oil is not as large as say a Battleship full or ammo and people. I'm thinking of the USS Iowa or IJN Yamato

Stork is just as long or longer than most cruisers.
