battlecruisers

The battlecruisers are actual battlecruisers including having a lot of deck guns.

Funnily enough, the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922 cancelled the production of more battleships and battlecruisers.

Look at StarCraft, with its puny carriers and battlecruisers - I mean, the buildings in that game look about the size of a cube van.

For those who care about such things, there were a number of carriers converted from battleships/battlecruisers or cruisers used in WW II.

Also, battlecruisers really were distinct from battleships in that they lacked armour.

It's 200 supply per player (hero units take 0 supply, zerglings are 0.5, and the supply cost goes up to 8 for battlecruisers for example).

So you need an alt who will be always sitting in the Titan when you log off:) That's why ppl fly blops in cruisers and battlecruisers.

If the enemy was to have 3 battlecruisers then we ought to have 4.

I'm under the impression the Kirov-class battlecruisers have vertical launch tubes.

So you can have 200 Paladins (strongest unit in the game), while in Starcraft you can have either 33 Battlecruisers (strongest combat unit one-vs-one) or 400 Zerglings (weakest but most numerous).

Also I`ve read the reason Iowa Battleship in USA is not fully decomissined is just in case they need it to take out the two Russian battlecruisers...

Move to a location, plant your troops, put your tanks in siege mode, rain hellfire down upon aerial defenses and approaching units so your Battlecruisers can come in with their Vulture and Wraith support to decimate a base.

Germany managed to build their pre-WW2 "pocket battleships" as battlecruisers under the terms of the Washington Treaty, but they really were battleships.

I could see going either way on the question of whether the Mon Cals slot better into the “fast carrier” paradigm or are better regarded as filling the role of heavy cruisers or battlecruisers.

Battlecruisers were supposed to be a solution to the problem of "what do we do about torpedoes?" Torpedoes were invented in the early 20th century, and quickly made "Monitor"-type ships obsolete.

So even singular ships (ie: single Battlecruisers) can make surprising progress.

Battlecruisers were essentially a compromise design, trading either armour (in the British case) or guns and armour to a lesser degree (in the German case) for speed, at a time when a fast, fully armoured battleship carrying the largest guns was not feasible.
