Interesting information, but I do not think it is applicable.
The majority of the fortification- excavation, construction, concrete, etc is not part of the 'cost'.
Only the gun and any turret/rotating structure would be part of the 'cost', which would be simple tonnage.

A real world equivalent of a 1,400ton DD vs installing 2 15" guns in coastal defence, concrete included (probably coolie workers). I wonder what the 2 Dover guns cost.
Cheers,

In Wesworld, the SIM cost of the Maginot line would be 0 tons.
Our sim reports don't deal with the concrete or labor except as directly related to the naval part. The fortifications are window dressing.

Fine.
I'd put it up for comment.
I'll stop now.
Bye.

Alt Naval, if I came across as harsh or accusatory or something, that wasn't my intent. I am sorry if I offended.
