Among the long-standing flagship classes serving the Sublime Porte, the Hurrem Grand Cruiser stands as an esteemed command vessel for seasoned Captains. While modernized with state-of-the-art weaponry and magnetic impeller propulsion, its age shows through the absence of an Orichalcite core and the cramped quarters, posing challenges for the crew. Nonetheless, it commands significant firepower against adversaries, and its distinctive design influences the modern Ottoman fleet's appearance.
This influence is most pronounced in the Mehmed class Grand Monitor, intentionally fashioned to echo the venerable Hurrem class silhouette. Its distinctive appearance often perplexes enemy analysts regarding Ottoman fleet size, strength, and composition. Named after the great Mehmed himself, these vessels symbolize the Sultan's watchful eye over his people. Yet, the captains drawn to helm these Grand Monitors, chosen for their unwavering loyalty to the Sublime Porte, evoke unease among the fleet's ranks.
Supporting the Mehmed class, the Izmir Monitor diligently defends the Sultanate's great rivers and coastlines. Assignment to an Izmir often feels like a lateral move, stifling the initiative of captains and officers, given the constant oversight of a Grand Monitor, potentially subjecting their orders to abrupt changes.
The Iskandar class was the initial beneficiary of the Sublime Porte's acquisition of magnetic impeller advancements for its navy. These cruisers swiftly became the cornerstone of the Sultanate's highly mobile armada, particularly in tandem with Pasha class vessels. Renowned for their agility, these Light Cruisers are equipped with extensive observation systems, ensuring meticulous reconnaissance and positioning for maximal impact during conflicts.
The envy of global navies, the Sadrazam Heavy Cruisers boast Sultanate engineering prowess matching that of the Covenant of the Enlightened. Blending speed, maneuverability, and enhanced firepower, often equipped with particle beamers, a squadron of Sadrazams looming on the horizon is enough to unsettle even the bravest enemy Commodore.
Integral to larger battlefleets, the Temir Frigates flank squadrons supporting Pasha or Izmir class warships. Assigned secondary objectives, these frigates supplement the main thrust of an attack.
The Anatolia Battlefleet Set assembles seven multi-part plastic and resin miniatures:
- 1x Anatolia Battleship
- 2x Cruiser. Each Cruiser alternatively builds Iskandar, Izmir, Pasha, or Sadrazam Class ships. Combining both cruisers crafts a Hurrem Grand Cruiser or a Mehmed Grand Monitor.
- 4x Temir Frigate
