For giggles?

The ships of the class were Titanic, Britannic and Olympic. Well we all know that DiCaprio sank Titanic; Britannic hit a mine in WW1 and sank and Olympic was scrapped in the mid 30's. So why is this in the game?
1) There's no other ocean liner whose plans or 3D models are so easily available, which means it was easiest to make.
2) You'd be surprised how many people made requests to add Titanic class. Apparently everyone wants to sink DiCaprio again.
3) It can still be used as generic "big ocean liner" - ships built in the same time as Olympic class liners were often still in service in WW2, so an old ship like them isn't totally unrealistic - if you treat it as generic ship not the specific class.
