World of Warships - First Look: Tier IX Premium Italian Battleship Marco Polo
Here's our First Look at Tier IX Premium Italian battleship Marco Polo. As a fan of Tier VIII's Roma, ol' MP here really fascinates me. I like the look of this ship a whole lot, and I'm not talking about her patented "BATTLESHIP by Armani" design. Her stealth, these big-ass guns, that nasty Italian SAP... this thing may end up being a high-tier cruiser's nightmare when captained well. She has her weaknesses, of course, but on paper this looks like one seriously solid premium ship.
