| An archetypal battleship, ''Warspite'' represents all that a battleship was meant to do as one of the first superdreadnoughts sent to sea. This "Grand Old Lady" can slug it out at medium range, doing massive damage with her 15-inch guns while dodging torpedoes and shrugging off gunfire.

This is a warship that belongs just behind the cruisers in a battle line, providing fire support where needed and taking pressure off of less sturdy allies and in a Tier VI battle, a skilled player in a ''Warspite'' can have a huge impact in the match if circumstances are with them. | | | An archetypal battleship, ''Warspite'' represents all that a battleship was meant to do as one of the first superdreadnoughts sent to sea.

Warspite — British special premium Tier VI battleship.
HMS Warspite joined the Fifth Battleship Squadron in 1915. She participated in the Battle of Jutland and was the flagship of the Mediterranean Fleet after World War I. With the start of World War II, the ship was transferred to the Home Fleet and participated in the Battle of Narvik, where she sank a German destroyer. In 1940, she returned to the Mediterranean Sea and managed to hit the flagship of the Italian fleet during the Battle of Punta Stilo. In 1941, the ship sank two Italian heavy cruisers during the Battle of Cape Matapan. In 1943–1944, the battleship covered the landing of Allied troops in Sicily and Normandy as part of the Eastern Fleet.
