[OOC: Time for a good old bit of tech/numberwank. to be updated etc.]
The Hogsweatian Navy was always small for it's budget, however, this was to change as the "Defence of the Realm Act 101 and 102" were signed by Parliament and the Premier, official date August 17th 2005. The Dora101/2 Act, as it was known, would be to triple the size of the Navy, introducing another half a million personnel in logistics and a similar number in actual combat personnel. The amount of ships however will almost triple in a plan to build three more Superdreadnaughts, five more Supercarriers, and over one hundred and fourty battleships, escorted by a huge submarine increase of over one thousand submarines and over two thousand destroyers and frigates. There will also be an increasement in naval bases, by size as follows.
FDNB Scapa Flow: 250km sq to 300km sq
FDNB Southway : 200km sq to 250km sq
FDNB Hogsingrad: 100km sq to 150km sq
FDNB Ulsterfane: 100km sq to 250km sq
FDNB Hyfur: 100km sq to 150km sq
FDNB Tideran: 100km sq to 150km sq
FDNB Elburgha: 100km sq to 150km sq

This discoutns support craft, cos I really can't be bothered atm.

bump, so noone cares that i r0x0x0r0x0r?

Fixed the battleship numbers and added some destroyers in.

OOC: Christ, I couldn't imagine having that many ships, I stop building vessels when I run out of good names. All just number wanking though, roleplaying isn't about having hundreds of missile destroyers and silly superdreadnoughts, it's about having fun.

/me points to reference^

Naming all my ships took far too long and it was far too boring (stopped at 300) although I do intend to give all my capital ships names. This is a REFERENCE, and as such is a numberwank. It's very well entitled to be that.

OOC: True, but people can still be entitled to their opinions, having a ton of anything just waters down everything.

fixed bb and destryoer numbers again
