Why the simulated British battle line has more ships

The Royal Navy receives roughly two-to-one or four-to-three superiority to represent the numerical advantage expected in a battleship action.

Notes

The simulated Royal Navy force has the numerical edge expected by British planners in a battleship action. The intended advantage is roughly two to one or four to three. This setup is a scenario choice rather than a reconstruction of a specific battle. Both navies sought favourable concentration instead of an even squadron duel.
