Marlborough Tier IX British Battleship 1947
A variant of a battleship that retained the design features implemented in the Vanguard- and King George V-class ships. The ship main armament comprises sixteen 356 mm guns mounted in quadruple turrets.
Marlborough In-Game Flag
In the entire history of the Royal Navy, as many as six warships bore the name of the prominent English general and statesman John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough (1650–1722). The coat of arms of this branch of the Churchill family tree depicts a silver lion along with a canton of Saint George awarded in the 17th century in recognition of loyal service to the Crown.
Key Features:
The main feature of the new battleship is her ample main battery, consisting of sixteen 356-mm guns in 4 four-gun turrets. The ship's less-than-ideal armor is compensated by the good concealment and the sheer power of her main battery guns — they have a fast reload time and decent range.{alertInfo}
