Dreadnought herself was never camouflaged.Dreadnoughts is a turn-based surface fleet battle simulator. In-game camouflage is actually based on the historical camouflage of HMT Mauretania, an ocean liner that was used as a troopship during World War I.Following WW1 HMS Dreadnought was sold for scrap in 1920.
In 1915 she rammed the German UBoat U-25, which as a consequence sank. While never being part of a Naval Battle, HMS Dreasdnought did distinguish herself by being the only Battleship in history to sink a submarine. The principle of modern Naval Combat was realized by introducing a unified caliber for the main battery, a high speed of 21kn and an armor protection sufficient for its time, while at the same time not displacing more weight than what was necessary.īeing completed within 14 months, she also demonstrated that the ship-building capabilities of the United Kingdom was not to be underestimated. HMS Dreadnought was a Battleship laid down by the Royal Navy in 1905, which set a new world-wide standard for Battleships as well as coining the today well-known term "Dreadnought". Her good maneuverability will serve her well in brawls, and make dodging enemy torpedoes easy.
Like all low-tier battleships, captains of Dreadnought will be hard pressed to get any reasonable performance out of her guns at range, and should prioritize reaching close-range engagements. In exchange, Dreadnought is a bit more maneuverable in terms of rudder shift and turning circle, as well as having better concealment. In comparison to her tech-tree counterpart, Bellerophon, Dreadnought has less hit points, absolutely no anti-aircraft firepower, and is slightly slower. Luckily, Dreadnought has a sturdy armor scheme that allows her to soak up a fair amount of damage. Like many of her counterparts, she has no super-firing front guns, so captains are forced to sail nearly full-broadside to get the maximum number of guns on target. Like many of her peers at this tier, she possesses five twin-gun turrets, two of which exist as wing turrets, with one on either side of her hull.
