This is possibly the worst depiction of a battleship in any game.

First, its attacks have low armor-piercing and cant attack any ground units. Battleships have the most powerful and highest penetrations guns in any fleet. Attacking ground units isnt a big issue now, but it will be later.

Second, its Bombard attack is just silly. It moves at a weird diagonal angle. When firing in long range Bombardment, you hit the weakest part of the armor, the deck. Should have something like a 75-90% armor-piercing.

Third, anti-torpedo defense, ships had that way back before World War 1 and its really simple concept. You make nets, layers between bulkheads, or bulges that detonate torpedoes before they hit the main hull.

Fourth, Plane defense. Battleships needed numerous anti-aircraft defenses as the greatest weakness to even a powerful battleship would be from bombs and torpedoes, not other ships.

The premium battlehip isnt just stronger, but much better attack patterns and some actul anti-air guns.
