I invite any and all to review what's posted in my encyclopedia, and comment here. Pretty much every ship there has changed, some that I posted before no longer exist, etc.

If you have an opportunity to indicate which classes are deployed where, I'd focus my review on Black Sea stuff.

If not, I will review at my leisure...

All of this is at a glance, so I might have missed some finer details.

Battleships: Looking good overall, I dont see anything illegal. Im assuming the 12"/40 are the historic gun, so thank you for matching shell weights. I would have gone for taller belts, but I am a well known ArmorWhore.

First-Rank Cruisers: Overall, nothing illegal. Might want to check the belt length on Admiral Nakhimov and General-Admiral, as there are nice tasty exposed vitals.

Second-Rank Cruiser: Not a bad looking ship.

Torpedo Boats: Get rid of the Torp listings from the weapons tab. Other then that, nothing objectionable.

CDS: Admiral Ushakov has two twin mounts for 2 guns.

Small Craft: Looks good.

Auxiliaries: Looks good.

Coastal Guns: I see nothing to object to given the scale of my defenses.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when solider lads march by
Sneak home and pray that you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

Here's what I have in the working copy of the 1900 report. I don't think any ship assignments will change. All ships listed in Sevastapol are (obviously) in the Black Sea:

Fixed. Both off by less than 10cm. That's what I get for going back to round off values...

Rocky: I went ahead and noted where ships were constructed, etc. for you in the encyclopedia.

That class is explicitly to ominously threaten Constantinople.
