Admittedly, the boom of naval construction from 1905 to the start of WWI was something of a wank historically. But how much more extreme could it get? What's the maximum number of dreadnoughts and battlecruisers that could get built?
Some ideas:
-No Russo-Japanese war, so Russian and Japan have bigger naval budgets
-The Netherlands gets some dreadnoughts
-Germany refuses to loose the naval race
-Canada funds the construction of some battleships
-WWI is delayed or butterflied, along with the cancellation of building plans that accompanied it.
What can you guys think of? Also, I don't just want to go for quantity, can some really huge ships like the Tillman Maximum battleship get built and start another phase?
