Ragnarok — Japanese special premium Tier VIII battleship.

The vessel is immeasurably ancient—a relic of days long forgotten. It was built in the shipyards orbiting a world of proud and fearsome warriors. Though the citizens adhered to the Imperial creed and paid their tithes, secret cabals on the planet's surface worshipped Khorne, the Lord of Rage. These cults were strong. They were hated. They were outnumbered. At the appointed hour, they rose up and tried to overthrow their loyalist masters. They failed. They were defeated in a long, bloody war and all, to a man, perished in flames. Their name was erased from history. But the fickle whims of the Warp decreed that their vengeful spirits would forever haunt the vessel Ragnarok, whose hull was being constructed in the docks above the planet's surface. The furious spirits invaded the hull and ensured the vessel served none but the Ruinous Powers. To this day, Ragnarok and all aboard it cry, "Vengeance! Death! Blood for the Blood God!"

Ragnarok was first released in June 2020 in collaboration with Games Workshop.

For a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".

Ragnarok is a clone of IJN battleship Amagi with slightly improved accuracy and slightly worse reload time.

[Pros and cons taken from LWM's review:]

Pros:

Trollish citadel protection, with surprisingly thick armor.
Massive ten 410mm gun broadside with enormous alpha-strike potential.
Good dispersion with 1.9 sigma.
Excellent AP penetration.
Good HE damage.
Super accurate secondaries.

Cons:

Weak belt armour, prone to taking penetration hits.
33s reload on main battery.
Secondaries have a maximum of a 7.56km range.
Poor agility with a large, 870m turning circle radius and pedestrian 4º/s rate of turn.
Horrible AA firepower.
Horrible concealment
