Ajax represents the proposed Queen Elizabeth Maximus as closely as the game's available parts permit, using 16-inch guns in place of 16.5-inch weapons. Her fifteen main guns and 28-knot speed face a German design given twelve 15-inch guns in triple turrets. The enlarged opposing battery makes the comparison more demanding while remaining tied to an assessment of Germany's contemporary gunmaking capacity. The isolated battleship duel is acknowledged as an artificial scenario. A detached German ship encountered during a wider British search provides a hypothetical setting for the meeting.
