Fury, WAAAGH! and Legends: Warhammer 40,000 collaboration in detail

It’s no secret that in the far future of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, there is only war (and countless legends about great warriors!). No wonder it fits so well in World of WARships: LEGENDS, huh? Anyway, let’s break down everything that’s available in the Warhammer range, this time headlined by the noble Adeptus Astartes of the Black Templars, as well as Orks that are always hungry for battle.

Augustin Riegerwald and Grotmaz Smart are in the shacks of Cross of Dorn and Ship Smasha (red, of course), respectively, and both Commanders have unique voiceovers. Want more? There are camouflages, flags, and patches. Most of this content can be found in the Eternal War crates (check the exact droprates at https://wowslegends.com/containers/, available November 8). Go to the Store to choose the items that suit you best, going by what inspires you: the righteous fury of the Black Templars or scrappy Ork attitude!

The first wave of the Warhammer 40,000 collaboration is also going to be available. Among the included items, you’ll find bundles with valiant Justinian Lyons XIII and his Tier VI ship Ignis Purgatio, fierce Arthas the Cold at the helm of Tier VI Ragnarok, crates, patches, and more!

Let’s dive into the ships' distinctive features and what each Commander does best.

Ship Smasha is an agile destroyer prepared by the Orks to set everything aflame and smash into her targets, should the Dakka approach not work.

Cross of Dorn is a solid cruiser, reliant on her accurate guns that recharge quickly and hit heavy with their 8.3-inch (210 mm) AP shells.

Augustin Riegerwald

Best suited to German cruisers, this Commander boosts AP shells at the cost of main battery reload swiftness. His unique skill allows you to operate faster and further boost the aforementioned shells. Strike fast and deadly, just like how the Black Templars operate.  

Base trait: Merciless

Increase your cruiser’s AP shell damage by up to 3% and main battery reload time by up to 3%.

Unique skill: Kraken Shells

Increase the maximum speed of your cruiser by up to 5% and enhance the armor-piercing capabilities of your cruiser’s AP shells by up to 10%.

Grotmaz Smart

Best suited to British destroyers, Mr. Smart offers a unique playstyle and significantly boosts ramming damage while reducing the ramming damage you receive. This opens up a handful of new gameplay angles while getting you closer to that sweet Die-Hard medal! All of that comes along with his unique skill that boosts your HE shell stats.

Base trait: Rammin' Spikes

Increase ramming damage dealt by your ship by up to 20%; decrease ramming damage taken by up to 10%.

Unique skill: Burny Dakka

Increase your destroyer’s HE shell damage by up to 15% and increase the chances of causing fire with these shells by up to 2%; increase incoming damage to your destroyer by up to 6%.
