Cross of Dorn Warhammer 40 000 Tier VIII Light Cruiser

This warship is one of the most closely guarded secrets of the Black Templars. Only a few chosen Brothers know of its very existence, as it lays dormant deep in the Reclusiam hangars of the Eternal Crusader, flagship of the Templars’ fleets and Chapter’s Fortress-Monastery. This ship was the gift, reward, and blessing, given by Rogal Dorn to the newborn Chapter and its first High Marshal Sigismund. It is ancient like the time itself, dating back to the early days of the Dark Age of Technology. Looking deceptively small, compared to the gargantuan vessels of Chapter’s fleets, it holds the mysterious and now forbidden powers of that long-forgotten era.

Warhammer 40,000 Event:

World of Warships is setting the stage to welcome back space fleets from the distant future! The Imperial Navy and space forces of the Black Templars will face the ferocious forces of Chaos and vehement space corsairs—the Orks. The characters of the Warhammer 40,000 universe are returning in Update 12.3. Whose side will you take? You can expect the return of familiar ships—Ship Smasha, Cross of Dorn, Ignis Purgatio, and Ragnarok—as well as their Commanders, expendable camouflages, and other themed content.

WG have also updated the contents of the Warhammer 40,000 Premium container! Each Warhammer 40,000 Premium container can now drop 14 rare economic bonuses of each type; the drop rate of each type is 14%. The drop rates of the themed expendable camouflages within the container have been reduced accordingly.
