The campaign restarts with Britain because its historical ships and development choices provide a familiar comparison. This makes it easier to separate changes caused by the revised design model from choices that would already look unusual for the Royal Navy. The experiment will compare battleship and battlecruiser development, while smaller combatants receive less investment. Historically informed play can expose the assumptions built into a naval-design model instead of treating fleet optimization as the only goal.
