The Born of Battle campaign has begun! Complete its 100 milestones within the next 5 weeks with an active Admiralty Backing to claim British Tier VIII Premium destroyer Somme and many other rewards. Somme places a strong emphasis on torpedo firepower, featuring stealthy long-range torpedoes and Torpedo Reload Booster with unlimited charges.
