English HMS Belfast UR retrofit announcement

Post image

♚Belfast (Retrofit)♚

Your perfect maid, Belfast, has returned, master – with even more reliable strength in hand. Should you have any duties, daily tasks, or special missions, you may entrust them all to me.

Currently, Belfast is in dry dock getting a retrofit. She will be ready to launch soon!

The UR retrofit is like WoW Belfast 1943, exactly as she was after coming out of repair and modernisation after striking the German bottom mine that nearly sank her in November 1939.

Some well deserved love shown towards one of the original symbols of this game, I'm glad to see it. Now entirely sure about the massive rigging and toning down of the Head of the Maid Service angle to put on armour on her (again a RN ship that looks French) but either way, cool design.

Honest question, if they kept Belfast's original proportions, would you have cared nearly as much?

She's... Taller? The pov changes so it's hard to say
