Okay, I will make them about ten thousand meters then, so that they are more in line with Republic dreadnoughts, however, their doctrine would be based on striking enemy fleets with overwhelming force. They would be designed to battle vessels as powerful as themselves on even ground, but be able to flee in the event of an encounter with something like the Imperatore under Admiral Carandial. The two vessels, named Liberator and Devastator, would be deployed to Masolirsra with the intention of decisively checking the Imperial incursions into their territory earlier, and showing the Empire that the Serapis were willing to challenge the greatest superpower of the galaxy, even in the face of being outnumbered. Also, I wanted to build dreadnoughts for the purpose of prestige for the Serapis, basically showing their ambition to become a great power in Cyrannus. A comparison would be when the Imperial German Navy built a massive fleet of battleships before World War I to try and challenge the British Navy.
