Incomparable Flag

The idea of the Incomparable project was suggested by the First Sea Lord, Admiral John Fisher (1841–1920), who was created Baron in 1909. The coat of arms of the Fishers features two red lions and a stern of a sailing vessel, as well as a "Fear God and dread nought" motto.

 

Key Features:
Incomparable is notable for her good speed, slim armor, and powerful AA. the ship is equipped with the "Engine Boost", "Repair Party" and the standard for the British destroyers "Short-Range Hydroacoustic Search" consumables.

 

Tactics:
The best tactic would be to play at medium range, taking into account the ship's low firing range and good concealment.
