**battleship (l, 20 cells)**5 wide, so at most ONE 3x3 l gun fits, and
mounting it consumes nearly half the grid, leaving only narrow strips for
supports. Without an l gun it flexibly fits several m guns. Too narrow for a
drone hangar.
**battleship (l, 24 cells)**broadside hull with notched flanks on every
other row. Fits four 2x2 m guns (two per gun deck) — one more than the
battlecruiser — with bow, stern, and flank cells for supports. All 3x3
placements crowd the center columns, so at most ONE l gun fits: mounted
center it blocks every m gun mount (pure support strips remain), mounted
offset it still allows two m guns. The notched rows are never adjacent-and-

**dreadnought (xl, 42 cells)**11-wide, 3-deep main battery deck: three 3x3
l guns fit side by side with spacer columns to spare, plus bow/stern strips
for supports. Wide enough for a drone hangar too, if the player wants to
trade a gun battery for one.

by side (or m guns / supports in unused slots), plus bow/stern strips for

hangar can never fit — the carrier stays the only hangar hull.
