At the close of the 19th century, news of the Peresviet class ‘fast’ battleships (rumored to have a top speed of 21 knots) under construction in Russia was the cause of concern in England. The Royal Navy subsequently ordered the Duncan class as a ‘reply.’ However, the threat posed by these ships, like that posed by the Rurik class armored cruisers a few years earlier was exaggerated. These ships only had a top speed of 18 knots, and were rather lightly armed (10” main armament instead of 12”) and armored, intended mainly to support the Rurik class cruisers in commerce raiding activity.
This scenario pits three of the British (side 1) Duncan class OBBs against the three Russian (side 2) Perseviet battleships. The scenario is matched evenly pointwise, and in game play.
