This will make you look very silly but I should point it out anyway.

You do of course realize that 'Gauss gun' and 'railgun' are simply two different words for more or less the same thing, right?

Coilgun

A coilgun (not to be confused with a railgun) is a type of cannon which uses one or more electromagnetic coils to accelerate a magnetic projectile to high velocity.

Any battleship with that much gadgets should cost slightly more. Railguns and Gauss guns require so much energy, coolant etc. Also, why have railguns and gauss guns when just one of the lot will do splendidly?
