What is Battleships?
Only planes, artillery, and missile launchers damage a battleship. It can shell the coast, so tanks and infantry do not trade with it. Upkeep is 3,450,000 per day and manpower is 225,000. Spawn time is not published. An older unit article described battleships as the only navy unit; aircraft carriers were added later.

How do you get Battleships?
Available at match start if you have a port city. Landlocked countries cannot build ships until they capture a port.
How do you use Battleships?
Buy a battleship only when coastal enemies lack planes, artillery, and missiles. If they have any of those three, the hull is not safe. Carriers are countered by battleships, so a carrier fleet still wants an answer to this unit.
