![]() ![]() Not necessary entirely but more along with the other attack vectors by sea and air. Although not explicitly mentioned anywhere, we know from Uprising that the Empire also practices mass-cloning, which would explain how it's able to match the numbers of the USSR and Allies despite having a tiny fraction of the population.Ĭlick to shrink.They did manage to make a city on the moon in four years, so I assume that they either have very good lifting capability or very good production capability on the spot. ![]() In terms of land forces, the Imperial Warrior's unit profile notes that the Empire's infantry is roughly comparable of that to the Allies and the Soviets, so again assuming RL WWII numbers, that would put them at around 20-30 million men. That should at least give an idea as to what we're working with here. Assuming similar ratios of carrier-equivalents to support ships, we're looking at on the order of 34,000 vessels, which is functionally much larger with the enormous force-multipliers of the Floating and Giga Fortresses. Assuming each Floating Fortress operates a similar number of battleships as the base shown at the start of the Empire campaign (debatable), we're looking at roughly 144 carrier-equivalents. Relative to their own setting, the Empire's naval presence easily outstrips that of the rest of the world combined. There is also the Giga Fortresses, which, while only a "handful" exist, are described as being able to singlehandedly stomp entire armadas: A single one is capable of controlling the entire North Atlantic and blockading Europe, with a second one doing the same in the Mediterranean. The Empire has at least 3 Floating Fortresses. However, this doesn't even account for what is probably the bulk of their navy. So as an absolute minimum the Empire has 36 aircraft carrier-equivalents (despite being battleships Shoguns are functionally equivalent to Allied carriers and Soviet missile dreadnoughts), better than the 28 carriers of the US navy at its peak during WWII. In a single cutscene we see 18 Shogun battleships just onscreen, and at bare minimum that is only half of the Imperial navy ( as Hirohito states half the navy is housed at Pearl Harbor). In terms of size the EotRS navy ought to be at least comparable to that of the US navy at the height of WWII, likely far exceeding it.
