The scary thing is, these "landships" were actually proposed by some people after WW1, some were even meant to sail to where they were needed then come ashore to continue the fight.
No matter that they were utterly beyond the technology of the time... oh and utterly impractical! Supplying one of those things would be akin to a modern US super carrier, an amphibious assault ship and a WW2 battleship all rolled into one.
Talk about "arms race".
