Battleships are the super units of this game. For a very heavy price, they can wreck literally anything they come across except another battleship. They also don't take a lot of damage from anyone except bombers and other battleships. Send out a few, position them right, and let them wreak havoc on your enemies. Their only limitation is that they can only move on water, but their range still lets them be useful in ground bombardments in most maps.
