An update that displays port size more clearly prompts a review of the shore capacity and personnel behind the fleet. A shortage of several thousand people delays the next battleship design until the cruiser, destroyer, and submarine programs are complete. Capital-ship ambition therefore depends on ports, trained crews, and construction timing as much as hull design. The expanding submarine force is already turning parts of the map into no-go areas. Those logistical choices feed directly into a strategy of sea denial.

Port capacity, personnel, and submarine sea denial
A fleet-management pause connects visible port capacity and personnel shortages to construction sequencing and the growing sea-denial effect of submarines.
