Picardie — French Premium Tier VII Battleship.

In 1912, France initiated the construction of larger docks at shipyards in Toulon and Brittany. By that time, the major naval powers were laying down ships significantly more advanced than their predecessors in terms of main caliber. France was also contemplating a shift toward a caliber of 14.6-15 inches (370-380 mm); however, naval guns of this size were not yet accessible in France. As a solution, engineers opted to increase the number of smaller-caliber guns, with the final design featuring as many as 16 guns housed in four turrets.

Picardie was released as the final reward of the Rose of Picardy campaign, which took place from January 27th to March 3rd, 2025.
