I do (and Conway's too). I'll check when I get home, but here's a quick
sampler:
ARGENTINIAN NAVY, WWI/WWII
1N01
Comprises: 2 Battleships, 3 Cruisers, 16 Destroyers.
£5.80
BRAZILIAN NAVY, WWI/WWII
1N02
Comprises: 3 Battleships, 2 Cruisers, 13 Destroyers.
£5.80
CHILEAN NAVY, WWI/WWII,
1N03
Comprises: 1 Battleship, 11 Destroyers.
£3.05
Note the lack of cruisers -- these are essentially coastal defense
fleets.
That'd be a total of 6 BBs them... except that this list doesn't mention
one very important thing:
How many of those were dreadnoughts (my guess would be close to nil) and
how many were obsolete pre-dreads?
