Special

Rodney — British premium Tier VII battleship.

One of the most formidable British Navy warships during the interwar period, Rodney featured a distinctive layout, with her three main battery turrets concentrated on her bow. The battleship had quite an eventful service history. She participated in military operations in the Atlantic, Arctic, North Sea, and Mediterranean during World War II. Rodney also played a major part in sinking battleship Bismarck in May 1941 and significantly contributed to the success of Allied landings in Normandy in June 1944.

Rodney was first released for sale on 29 May 2024.
