Reading the Imperial Fleet as a naval system

The introduction treats the Imperial Fleet as more than a collection of dramatic ship designs. Battlefleet Gothic supplies the visual reference: grouped formations, rotating ship profiles, and still images make the vessels easier to inspect. The review will ask how the fleet's formations, operations, and different capabilities work together. Naval-history questions provide the standard for evaluating the game models. This opening explains why later episodes will examine the fleet as a system rather than judge its appearance alone.
