Now lets look at the NSL ship numbers listed in the fleet book:
15xFighter Carriers, 12xSuperDreadnoughts, 15xBattleDreadnoughts,
13xBattleships,
     or 
55xDreadnoughts/Battleships, 43xBattleCruisers, 63xCruisers,
85xDestroyers, 44xFrigate, 51xCorvetts

These numbers can be easly put to the German order of battle for Jutland
1916..

Keep a eye on this spot, for a NSL Order of Battle - based on the Fleet
book levels
