If you want to learn more about the I3 design as well as the other battlecruisers designs from the Royal Navy, here is a video from Drachinifel covering them: As such, it was abandoned in favor of the smaller G3 design. The main battery consisted of nine 18-inch guns (457 mm) in three triple turrets, two superfiring at the front and one amidship facing aft.Įven with these innovations, the design was still considered too big which drastically limited the number of available drydocks. Thanks to this design, the estimated speed would have been 32.5 knots provided by an impressive 180 000 horsepower. The purpose of this layout was to maximize firepower as well as engine power while still having a reasonably compact hull. In terms of design studies, I3 preceded G3 and introduced the strange layout of having all turrets located forward of the ship around the superstructure and the engines at the rear. Vincent is based on the I3 design of battlecruisers. One can only hope that the skins return somewhere down the line Historical background well they will most likely only have their eyes to cry for the high-tier ships. For those who absolutely want to get the special skins…. Vincent (Tier X) will be available as the last consecutive bundle for 20 000 doubloons.Īs you can see, it’s another event that will be stupidly pricy. There are 70 bundles that cost 1 000 doubloons each. Duncan (Tier IX) will be available from random bundles for doubloons, as usual.Tier IV – Tier VII may be obtained for free. Queen Mary (Tier IV) – Hawke (Tier VIII) will be available from consecutive bundles for tokens.There will be 12 bundles that cost 150 doubloons each. Indefatigable (Tier III) will be available from small daily random bundles for doubloons.When it comes to the way the ships will be available in the early access, it will work like this:

With update 0.11.6, the early access for the British battlecruisers will begin and will work in a similar way to previous events. As a Frenchman, it is to my great displeasure that I have to announce to you that the British or should I say the Bwi’ish are coming. For once, it’s not a picture in the nation’s port because, with the upcoming event, the London port turns into a giant opium den with all the smoke that covers the whole place.
