History
The channel class BB was designed in 1939 by an unknown person or company. The channel class BB went through many trials in the atlantic ocean and had many adjustments made. The 300mm guns being re-calibrated to have 12 350mm cannons designed by the best designers the country had to offer and the designers decided to put 29 150mm cannons onto secondary turrets. There was a malfunction with the frontal gun as it’s low elevation caused its hydraulics to fail during test trials. This problem was quickly fixed by mechanics back in port. The Channel class BB was first commissioned in 1940 by the navy.

Description
I made this I think about ¾’s of a month ago because I was bored, I wanted to not lie about building more ships. I looked for a few images and settled on a design where there were 4 primary cannon turrets at the front and a bunch of secondary turrets on the side and back. I was also talking to some fellow builders on a discord server and one of them mentioned that battleships became obsolete because of the weakness or ineffectiveness of anti aircraft armaments. I tried my very hardest on this ship and I am so happy I worked on it until the very end. The flag is a random flag I made by the way. Anyway, not what you’re down here and the updoot button is so close, why not give me one?

@Zanedavid Yeah, I tried to even the front in the back out but it looked kinda weird when I did try so I stuck with that final design
See I like this design because it’s practical, turret placement is perfect.
However , in design wise it looks bad. like I’m not used to seeing the superstructure at the rear, usually in the middle.
it’s not you that made it look bad or anything. The build looks absolutely amazing. Just so weird to see a superstructure there yah know?
This is a really nice ship. What might help make it easier to use the cannons is giving different types different AGs so you can choose which ones you use. Other than that I love it
@Mercyaircraftcorporation Dang it, I forgot about the side top and front view lol
But the upvote button is so far away!
