What might the Royal Navy call a battlecruiser built after Tiger in a delayed-war timeline?
Short answerAn admiral or a famous battle such as Trafalgar or Nile would be plausible; its armament would depend on the battleship program.
NotesA First World War delayed to 1920 would probably produce a successor to Tiger different from the historical Hood. The possibilities raised include 15- or 16.5-inch guns, with the final choice depending on battleship development. If the battleships advanced to 18-inch guns, the battlecruisers could use smaller weapons while shipyards upgraded their infrastructure. Their names would need to express their status as major fighting ships. Admirals and famous battles were possible sources, with Trafalgar and Nile specifically suggested.
