The Valaria is a post-Jutland type battleship built with 1920s technology. She had the best firepower for her limited tonnage compared to other battleships of her class, but at the cost of mediocre speed and protection, and poor upgrade potential.

Features：

△Rare main gun crew without superfiring positions——In order to fit twelve 16-inch giants into her limited tonnage, Valaria adopted the A, R, L, Y main gun layout popular among dreadnoughts. Despite eliminating the tonnage for mounting superfiring positions turrets and getting good levelling, she sacrificed the emergency firing boundaries of her main guns, and the main gun storms that swept across the ship challenged the placement of equipment, secondary and anti-aircraft guns.

△All-or-Nothing——In order to place twelve 16-inch guns on a battleship with a maximum displacement of less than 40,000 tonnes, she made huge sacrifices in all areas, including protection. To meet the most basic needs of gunnery protection, Valaria adopted the AoN design and went even more extreme – she even sacrificed the stern armour belt. Making her barely average citadel protection, but never expose her to too many small calibre guns!

△Weak Anti-Aircraft FirePower——Due to the storm of main guns that swept through the ship, it was difficult to place anti-aircraft gun emplacements on Valaria. Although the anti-aircraft firepower of the battleships of the 1920s was poor, the original design of the Valeria also severely limited its potential for subsequent modifications.

△More refined details and good performance optimisation——guided by the idea of high operational efficiency, this work has heavily simplified the number of parts without losing details, and used many decorative mods. making the number of parts of the whole ship 1,289, of which the number of parts involved in physical operations is only 380. This greatly improves the efficiency of the game, and it can be played normally on computers with poor configuration.
