I propose the Making Do With What We Have act, which stipulates that rather than building new ships, we will instead upgrade our existing battleships and armored cruisers with central firing as the budget allows.

I mean, look at construction dialog. We've halted construction of three of the Grom class due to lack of funds. We certainly can't afford to build a big new ship.

I think this is the only one up for vote.

Also secondary bonus of 'make do wiht what we have' is we're about to enter an era of big technological progress soon enough. So a few years (or less) to refill our coffers and build up new tech means when we start making new ships we can make a lot of them and not just be making old ones that have inferior tech that we have to accept are obsolete as soon as they roll out the docks due to the design.

Note that you cannot actually save up too much money. Sitting on a couple million isn't an issue, but if you have enough money in the bank to finance construction of a battleship division and don't do anything with it, the politicos will take it as a sign that you clearly didn't actually need all that money and promptly reassign it somewhere else.

Spare batteries are pretty key.
Aye, a single fast yacht with 3 turrets, each to hold a single 13" gun.

1 & 3 = 13, the Tzar spits in the face of the superstitious Englishmen's 'unlucky' number.

Secondaries and tertiaries to continue the numerological theme.

1x 13" would be fine for me, plus a yacht-like speed. I know we aren't introducing bills right now but you better believe I'm gonna be submitting this when we are!

Designs for the the Tzars new luxury yacht are now being accepted. as this is vague, I'll leave it up to the shipwrights to get creative.

I agree with one 13" gun for the Tsar to have fun firing. Half a dozen casemated 4" guns on each side to repel boarders and that will be all it needs.

There is one place in the ship design screen where you can legit provide luxury appointments.

Is that just the cabinspaces, or can we legit give the whole ship mahogany fittings and engraved scrollwork gun barrels?
