A game battleship still needs a dockyard

Replacing Richelieu with the much larger fictional Patrie makes dock capacity an immediate constraint.

Question

What if Richelieu became a completed World of Warships Patrie after launch?

Short answer

The extra firepower would excite the French Navy, but the much larger ship would struggle to find a suitable French dock.

Notes

The scenario replaces Richelieu after launch with the completed World of Warships version of Patrie. A much larger ship with three quadruple seventeen-inch turrets would excite the French Navy. Its size immediately raises the problem of finding a French dock able to accommodate it. Receiving that firepower would leave its dockyard requirements unresolved.
