Libertad — Pan-America Tech Tree Tier X Battleship.

A mighty battleship with a design that could have incorporated a number of design solutions specific to the South American dreadnought race. These include, among other things, an obsolete main battery layout with six twin-gun turrets. The ship's air defenses rely on artillery systems, which the battleship could have received during modernization in the United States in the 1940s.

Pros

• Very well-protected citadel due to multiple layers of thick armor.
• Modified secondary munitions combat instructions available.
• Secondaries with improved penetration, range, and damage per minute.

Cons

• Low Rate of Fire for the main guns.
• Unconventional turret layout requires exposing more broadside than normal to fire all guns
• Armor profile has a lot of flat surface areas that may be vulnerable to penetration damage
