Why not go with something like Espania with 11" guns?

The smallest and weakest dreadnought's ever. Not an experiment I'd want to repeat... :-X

If it is to repeated, I'll let Spain have the honor (again).

Actually you can do some quite nice things with them in SS.  When I was planing separate battleship and battlecruiser lines I was using a variation of them for my "Dreadnought" types.  Since I have instead just gone down the Battlcruiser line (silly lack of resources) I wont be building them.  Instead I will just build evolution's of my "Armoured Frigates".

...er, why?  I've always thought of the Espanas as the little outcasts the other dreadnoughts don't like to talk about.

Or his desserts are small,

To win or lose it all!"
