The ''Götterdämmerung'' class was a planned set of two superbattleships to be operated by the Englean [[Kaiserliche-Marine]] during the [[First Great War (Sunalaya)|First Great War]]. Planned during the early 1910s, the class was designed to succeed the previous ''Hohenzern'' class battleships and to "out-gun" the vessels currently in service with the major nations of the time. The primary feature of the vessel was the inclusion of the prototype 42 cm (16.5 in) SK L/45 guns recently developed by the Kaiserliche-Marine. Ultimately only one vessel would be built, the SMS ''Götterdämmerung'', which would see service until 1950. The ''Götterdämmerung'' would see action in the First Great War, being a major target of the [[Rhodeve Navy]] during the [[Hunt for the Götterdämmerung]] in 1917.
The TNS ''Valmistaja'' was the first and only member of the ''Valmistaja''-class of Battleships built for the [[Second Great War (sunalaya)]]. The ships where designed to act as force projection over the Gulf of paajarvi and North Lutentian Ocean, and was meant to act as a counterpart to the Englean Battleships of the same time period, and it would ultimately prove to be an icon of the Second Great War and Talvistova itself due to it's crew's dogged determination to keep it in action, and it's imposing figure being seen as a comfort to uneasy Talvistovan Sailors in the early stages of the war.
 
==Background==
Due to rising global tensions that would eventually result in the breakout of the second great war, the Ministry of War found itself of a flagship to use for the sake of recruitment and enforcing talvistovan superiority over the nearby waterways. This need would eventually be filled when a contract was reached with shipbuilding powerhouse Donbosk Iron Works to construct the Kingdom of Talvistova's first - and to this day - only Battleship, the TNS Valmistaja.

The TNS Valmistaja was the first and only member of the Valmistaja-class of Battleships built for the Second Great War (sunalaya). The ships where designed to act as force projection over the Gulf of paajarvi and North Lutentian Ocean, and was meant to act as a counterpart to the Englean Battleships of the same time period, and it would ultimately prove to be an icon of the Second Great War and Talvistova itself due to it's crew's dogged determination to keep it in action, and it's imposing figure being seen as a comfort to uneasy Talvistovan Sailors in the early stages of the war.

Background

Due to rising global tensions that would eventually result in the breakout of the second great war, the Ministry of War found itself of a flagship to use for the sake of recruitment and enforcing talvistovan superiority over the nearby waterways. This need would eventually be filled when a contract was reached with shipbuilding powerhouse Donbosk Iron Works to construct the Kingdom of Talvistova's first - and to this day - only Battleship, the TNS Valmistaja.
