Battleships

So I have been coming around to liking the 1.5 1939 Historic World War map and I found something that bothers me. People spam Battleships early in the game and end up with unrealistic amounts of battleships in giant feet's. I saw why this was to. Battleships take around 4 hours to make, when it use to take over a day.

Spam subs then, they are cheaper and take less time.

I should probably change what I write in here. -No one ever

They still got destroyers

Spam your own battleships then, if that doesn't work, get naval bombers, the enemy doesn't have the capability to get several fleets that counters everything.

True build submarine if they build battleship

If your having a problem with a larger enemy navy then stick to land and donโ€™t cross over water. If the problem is that enemy battleships are bombarding your costal Provinces then you can use RRGs (I donโ€™t usually recommend RRGs because of how slow and expensive they are but they have higher range then battleships so they can be used to counter but since the damage done to ships by RRGs is minimal it wonโ€™t be effective if a player stacks right or has the guts to let his/her troops suck up the damage) and if the problem is that you need to cross water then try to avoid conflict until you can build up a navy of your own. In the end tho all these problems are solved if you strengthen your own navy, the 2 best counters to a navy is 1- Be completely landlocked and 2- Other Naval units (I count Naval bombers as a Naval unit since they are almost never used for anything else even with the extra view range)

To summarize up this confusing and mostly philosophical post. To defeat an enemy navy you need your own navy, itโ€™s pretty obvious and if you canโ€™t build your own navy or need to use those resources for other things then donโ€™t pick a fight with any Islands that have a decent amount of ships.

I mean, there's people who Spam only Submarines.

All you have to do is know your counter defenses and try to get them to split their units, to deal more damage and increase your chances of a win.
