To give an example:
Scharnhorst and her sister ships
were designed to fight French battlecruisers,
and they found themselves ill-matched in
the kinds of positions wartime forced themselves into...
Imagine your fast ships designed to fight
equally fast enemy ships running into big
heavily armored ships that shrug off your
first shots, and then respond with a
devastating broadside that leaves your ships
crippled hulks?
