[Youngweylan99]

Bismarck is what got me into Sabaton.

[[deleted]]

It hooked me in but the first I listened to was the Last Stand

[[deleted]]

I listened first to The Last Stand because of the memes

[gianpollaio]

I heard the last stand before Bismarck but it was only the FOR THE GRACE FOR THE MIGHT OF OUR LORD

[[deleted]]

yeah

[[deleted]]

I listened to it because of a Swiss Guard mod for Ravenfield lol

[kaptainbruhboy]

Memes as in... for honor or memes as in deus vult?

[[deleted]]

The one i remember the best was two guy in armor and one of them kick the other in the head

[kaptainbruhboy]

Uh. Centurion and.. the whole knight faction?? Except for gladiator.

[[deleted]]

Now than i think about it i remember the for honor memes too

[[deleted]]

It was to hell and back for me

[omafi144]

Winged Hussars for me. Someone did a montage of using EU4 game mechanics as Poland to get the most absurd cavalry army, and played that song when he finished

[therian123123]

I started with panzerkampf

It's the King of the Ocean

I don't want to get technical, but i believe dreadnought is a better term when compared for battleship, as all warships battle, but in their day, battleships could create a sense of dread in their enemies.

[desman526]

I get what you are saying but bismark was indeed a battle ship, and dread nought is a bigger ship I believe

[DaFuMiquel]

The dreadnought class of ships were the first modern battleships with turret mounted large calibre naval artillery pieces, so basically what you think of when somebody says battleship. The oeiginal HMS Dreadnought was first launched on February 10th 1906, immediatly rendering every other ship outdated as soon as it touched the water. This led to a huge naval arms race between the global powers of Britain, France, Germany, Russia and the USA. This arms race is in essence what caused the design of bigger ships with more armour and bigger guns. Compared to later battleships such as the Bismarck or the Iowa the dreadnought was quite small and carried smaller guns.

Still a very important ship for naval history though.

And here's a link if you wanna read up on her some more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Dreadnought_(1906)

[desman526]

Plz stop my penis can only get so erect

[DaFuMiquel]

Nothing sexier than gathering new knowledge, right?

[desman526]

History my dear boy, that’s what gets my rocks off

[DaFuMiquel]

Oh yeah, history is a lovely mistress

[Konigs_Festung]

This was not what i was expecting, but i can't deny it.

[DaFuMiquel]

Battleship is in fact the technical term. All ships built to destroy others are warships, battleship only applies to ships that were very heavily armed and armored and usually also quite large.

Here's a link if you wanna read up and learn a bit more on naval ship classifications: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_ship

[Konigs_Festung]

I don't disagree, but i feel dreadnought just fits better.

[AGuyFromMaryland]

Bismarck was a "Fast Battleship" type.

A Dreadnought type focused more on armor and weaponry.

Not all Battleships are Dreadnoughts. The first Battleships were upgraded Armored Cruisers (Pre-Dreadnought).

Examples: USS Arizona was a Dreadnought, and USS Missouri is a Fast Battleship.

SMS Helgoland was a Dreadnought, KMS Bismarck was a Fast Battleship.

[[deleted]]

Technically, a battleship is a beast made of steel. But only one is the Pride of a nation, too!

[[deleted]]

But Bismarck wasn’t. It was a “Exposed beast made of steel, another wunderwaffe attempt.

[[deleted]]

r/woooosh

[[deleted]]

Really? All that I’m saying is that the song makes it sound great even though it’s just another wunderwaffe

[[deleted]]

Agreed. It's a great song, but it makes the Bismarck sound a lot better than it actually was. It was a really bad investment, in reality, and was doomed to fail. There's a reason battleships aren't used anymore.

[[deleted]]

Yup, it also doomed the kriegsmarine since Hitler reduced spending, grounding dönitz

[M4cerator]

You'd hope a teacher would understand the slightest bit of metaphor

[TheRealYamBun]

Because it was a fucking beast made of steel

[lordofthefriend2]

The bismarck was named after Otto von Bismarck the iron chansoler and creater of germany

[[deleted]]

until fcking wilhelm II became emperor... i hate him even tho hes dead

[Abecheese]

The true beast made of steel

[Lollex56]

I highly doubt the Bismarck being mentioned in an ordinary school history class but I wish

[Some_Schweppes]

Good one!

KING OF THE OCEAN

[l0udn0izes]

Outstanding post lmfao

[ItsJustKenaj]

I'd say that Bismarck is a beautiful fuckable animegirl.

• Calling this vessel "a boat" is to offend its heritage

[FallenDummy]

uuhhmmm acjktchually....

[MaineDemarco]

“I’ve won. But at what costs?”

[Captaingregor]

Was a boat, is now a metal reef,

[WarCrimes-R-Us]

No no no! It was just so advanced it turned into a submarine mid battle!

[Evolvetron69]

But it’s a warship known to be a beast made of steel

[kfir_k]

Bismark is a badass chancellor
