The build can be fictional or replica as well.
In this challenge, your task is to build a dreadnought (or super-dreadnought) type battleship from the era of 1906-1920. I merely put the pieces together and cleaned up the model for CivIII and added some what if pieces.Welcome to the Dreadnought Challenge! >Jump to comments<< Important information here: The goal of the challenge: Wyrmshadow provided the animation files and Ares de Borg did the sounds. The file contains all the sounds and pcx files. She was eventually broken up in situ in 1949–50. During World War II, she was badly damaged in a bombing raid in 1944 and scuttled in the final days of the war. Zähringen was rebuilt as a radio-controlled target ship in the mid-1920s. All of the ships save Zähringen were broken up in 1921–22. Wittelsbach, Wettin, and Schwaben became training ships, Mecklenburg was used as a prison ship and later as a floating barracks, and Zähringen became a target ship. In 1916 the five ships were disarmed and employed in secondary roles. By the outbreak of World War I in 1914, they were no longer fit for front-line service, though they saw some limited duty in the Baltic Sea against the Russian Navy. They were rapidly made obsolete by the launch of HMS Dreadnought in 1906. The ships were commissioned into the German fleet between 19, where they joined the I Squadron of the battle fleet. Their armament was almost identical, though more efficiently arranged. The ships of the Wittelsbach class were similar in appearance to their predecessors of the Kaiser Friedrich III class, however, they had a flush main deck, as opposed to the lower quarterdeck of the Kaiser Friedrich class, and had a more extensive armor belt.
All five ships were laid down between 18, and finished by 1904. The class was composed of the lead ship, Wettin, Zähringen, Schwaben, and Mecklenburg. They were the first battleships produced under the Navy Law of 1898. The Wittelsbach-class battleships were a group of five pre-dreadnought battleships of the German Kaiserliche Marine (Imperial Navy).
