In addition -
Mothballed Craft -
3 'Submarines' The Ice, Snow, and Frost. One is kept as a museum boat moored in a dock on the outskirts of the City of Majesty. A second is kept as a training boat in York, while the third is also at York, party dissembled in drydock.
1 'High' Cruiser 'The Excalibur' An almost finished prototype, work was never fully completed on this vessel. Instead it is used to test engineering theories and the practical application of upgrades to existing boats as well as additional training. (Principally of the mechanical kind) It is moored afloat at York.
1 Battleship 'Lord Sutton' Due to be decomissioned after the last war, and still suffering minor damage, the Sutton is in the process of being disarmed and preserved for posterity. The process is about 20% complete. She is currently afloat at Bridge.
Training vessels -
The Battleship 'Sir Coldwater' a rather aging vessel is often found sailing between Avalon and Majesty. Removed of the majority of her working guns, and containing only a part crew, the Coldwater is a training vessel, used to allow young officers in training a first shot at command and practical sailing duties. While theoretically capable of self defense she is little more threat than a light cruiser, although substantially better armored.
'Vale, Oxbirdge, Northview' Three old destroyers in otherwise full working order. Uses as escorts for the Coldwater, they too act in a training capacity, further educating officers in how to run a tight ship, and allowing crewmembers to serve in a safe environment on a fully active warship as well as practice high speed manovering.
Under construction -
The Alissian Empire currently has it's naval shipyards running at full capacity continuing to upgrade and replace the fleet. Approximately twenty vessels are in various stages of decomissioning, including two old battleships. Under construction are no less than 4 of the new 'Super Dreadnought' class, one is expected to be completed in December of each year. Two sister dreadnoughts are expected at the end of 1916, while the very last of the old Battleships is expected in January of 1915. Four Battlecruisers lie in various stages of completion, and it is expected that under current circumstances ten additional destroyers and five cruisers of varying designations should become operational each year, providing scrapping of the old hulls goes ahead as planned and nothing interrupts the flow of labour and parts.
