Chile may only warrent one battleship at best, but the Caribbean bases may actually require more that two per base.

That could be interpreted in different and interesting ways.

Sponsoring articles in the Navalism equivalent of the National Geographic that local ladies dance to the stacatto of castanietas made from shriveled nuts of their brothers' slain foes will not hurt either ...

With a little ballet training, they can perform "The Nutcracker".

ROTFL!!!!
Now, you got me humming that tune ...

Battleships are supposed to work in battleline, not piecemeal. Acting in pairs would require like 4-8 screening ships per base, and would allow any adversaries to defeat the Rohirrim fleet in detail. Station at least 4 BBs at a given base so they could train together for divisional tactics.

The only overseas station worthy of battleships is New Rhun, in the Caribbean side. That's 4 BBs. The Chilean protectorates might warrant a small flottilla centered on an old AC as token Rohirrim presence - only until the Beleriand Canal is finished, then reduce it like Borys' suggestion. On the Rohirrim coast, I'd have a big base for the Arcadias, and a second for the pre-Arcadias. The rest of the bases would get (combat/battle/armored) cruisers.
