Ok, so we all know the ultimate outcome: the HSF is destroyed with massive casualties. They were outnumbered two to one and the British had a huge quality advantage as well.
But what kind of damage does the Grand Fleet take in the process of killing the German Navy? How many ships will the British, American and Australian navies lose during the battle (either sunk or written off as a total constructive loss after)? How do the various squadrons perform? This last I'm really curious about as, depending on the maneuvers ordered, the American 9th BatDiv could end up in the van and undergo their baptism by fire in the naval battle of the war.
And would there be any longer term butterflies of this? Would the Wiemar Republic still arise seeing as a key event in it's formation was the Kiel Mutiny? And what lessons would the British and American navies learn from this battle?
