Cross of Dorn — German Premium Tier VI Cruiser.

This warship is one of the most closely guarded secrets of the Black Templars. Only a few chosen Brothers know of its very existence. This ship was the gift, reward, and blessing given by Rogal Dorn to the newborn Chapter and its first High Marshal Sigismund. It is ancient like the time itself, dating back to the early days of the Dark Age of Technology. Looking deceptively small compared to the gargantuan vessels of Chapter's fleets, it holds the mysterious and now forbidden powers of that long-forgotten era.

Cross of Dorn was temporarily released in the store as part of the Warhammer 40k collaboration on November 8th, 2021.

Player Opinion

Pros:

• Good set of consumables
• Good handling characteristics; relatively fast rudder shift and small turning radius.
• Good damage on both HE and AP shells.
• Improved armor and German turtleback armor scheme give her some additional survivability.
• Fast main battery reload time for a heavy cruiser (10 seconds).

Cons:

• Fairly slow turret traverse.
• Armor — despite being improved over that of Nürnberg — still cannot take much punishment, and sometimes HE shells will deal more damage than expected.
• Average HP pool amongst her contemporaries.
