28 Battleships. . . given that I'm looking at a High Space Fleet of
6xSuper Dreadnoughts, 12xDreadnoughts, 5xCVA, 71 cruisers, and about 80
escorts, yeah, that's a little bit big. You might run into that large a
force if and only if an entire Fleet were deployed, reinforced by the
capital ships from another fleet. (Of which there are 6: 1xHighSpace,
3xSector, 1xInternal Security[1], 1xPlanetary Defense[2])
[1]CVEs, DDVs, and a bunch of DDs and FFs.
[2]Nominal Command governing all STL PD ships. Only three capitals, but
a LOT of corvettes.
