Taking part in the titanic Battle of Jutland in 1916, when Agincourt fired her full broadside the guns produced so much smoke and muzzle flash that several observers believed her to have exploded.
Surviving the war, Agincourt was broken up for scrap in the early 1920s.
On the outbreak of WW1 the Agincourt was seized by the British and commissioned into the Royal Navy.
Remarkably, she was armed with FOURTEEN 12-inch guns, making her the most heavily armed Dreadnought of all time by number of main battery guns.
HMS Agincourt was a unique British battleship that served with the Grand Fleet during World War 1.
Originally ordered from British shipyards by Brazil as ‘Rio de Janeiro’, she was bought by the Ottomans in 1913 while still being built.
Like last week, there won’t be a Dev Diary tomorrow, but there will be a stream at the earlier time of 3pm CEST!
Which achievement would you like to see us attempt?
See the descriptions for them here:
@paulnedatf2 Nice Work! I think we can let you have it 😄
@Hoveringcranium Definitely!
@Richard18947991
@AimIdeals Nice Mod!
@Semo41580714 It's not something we are thinking about at the moment- but never say never 🙂
Here’s a challenge for you and a friend- Take Japan Communist and team up with Communist China to bring all of East Asia, and then the world, under your sway!
@n_macovey Turning off expansions is cheating! 😉
@robertmagli44 Sounds like a good strategy!
@oco0003 @feedbackgaming It's named after the Hel Peninsula, which is near Danzig. The 30 minutes is a reference to the PDXCON challenge where this achievement originated from
@dprssdgoldfinch Nice strat!
@Wolfs_Jeroen If at first you don't succeed..
@GottfriedLex That's an interesting idea- you should post it over on our suggestion forums-
It’s Friday, which means its time for an Achievement challenge!
For ‘Once More Mate’, you need to control the Istanbul state as Australia.
What’s the best way to do this?
@FreeDerFinn1 Jackie Fisher would be proud!
@Jutnik The main reason is that its more appropriate for the time period. The amount you can produce has not really gone down, its just that you produce in parallel (3 BBs at once with 5 dockyards on each), rather than in sequence (15 on 1)
@Modradormi @PdxInteractive is there a specific example you have in mind?
