Older ships remain active on distant stations where a major war appears less likely. Newer units concentrate around Europe and the Mediterranean, then replace older vessels overseas as more hulls enter service. This avoids maintaining a large mothball fleet while preserving worldwide coverage. The campaign favours rapid, overwhelming wars because a long conflict would disrupt the trade on which Britain's scenario economy depends.
