Rating B- (Below average within its tier and class · overall score 44) · Long-range battleship
Long-range battleship, suited to flanking. It is especially strong against battleships and cruisers (AP deals a same-tier battleship's HP in about 5 min on paper). Main battery range is 12.8 km (0.6 km longer than average), and dispersion at 12 km is about 268 m, 23% tighter than average. Top speed of 30.3 kn is 5.4 kn above average, with good turning, rudder shift, acceleration. High HE fire potential (2.0 fires/min before hit rate and resistance). Its firepower trails other battleships, so be selective and punish broadsides.

A Renown-class battlecruiser. She was a very fast-going ship for her time, and the guns she carried were similar to those mounted on Queen Elizabeth-class battleships.
