Japan, the UK, and the USA each start with fewer than 10 battleship units (6 for Japan, who in 1939 had 10 battleships, including the Kongous but not the obsolete Settsu). This would imply that a "battleship" is in fact a squadron of around two battleships (why they are named as one is another matter).

The fate of the Empire depends on this battle; let each man do his utmost.
