So, concerning Hiei: Is it a Dauntless that nails her or are her and her crew among the first to be introduced to horrors a century beyond their comprehension?

I've been playing Rule the Waves 3 recently and I wish so much there was this level of detail and back and forth in the naval treaties. I feel it'd add so much more flavor to the geopolitical situation in any given play-through.

I’m a bit confused. How much does this diverge from the real life interwar naval treaties?

Quite considerably. Hood in the OTL treaty system was basically ignored and counted as 16-inch gun armed ship. Japan left the treaty system in 1934 (Second London conference started at the end of 1935). Supercruisers never became a legal category and basically only the US built them (the Alaska class) in the early 40s.

Loved this man. Great lore as always. My only question is really, so does graf zeppelin get completed?

I am leaning towards yes—and Seydlitz is also probably completed (as a cruiser).
