Here's our First Look at Tier VI Premium British Battleship HMS Repulse. Repulse makes the eighth Tier VI Premium battleship, meaning that the premiums now outnumber the tech tree ships... and calling Repulse a battleship is overly generous. Her armor scheme is somewhat reminiscent of Tier VII British premium HMS Hood, because she's really a battleCRUISER, with all the baggage that implies. The is insanely fast for Tier VI, but her main battery and armor protection are a bit below average. Let's see what else Wargaming has done to bring this much-requested Royal Navy ship into the game.
