Dreadnought (Mission)

Overview
The Dreadnought is a boss added in the 4.5 Patch and is associated with the Sovereign Navy. Players fight this boss unit during the mission "The Worst Thing Imaginable" after it is encountered at the Western Ocean.

It is accompanied by two Submarines. While many players blow off the two lowly, small Submarines that accompany it, players should always stay cautious to have a sufficient number of units remaining at the end of the fight, since the Submarines can easily tear apart battleships (especially after they've been worn down by the Dreadnought).

This mission version can only be encountered and defeated once. It became a repeatable boss after the 4.7 Patch (see: Dreadnought).

Note: The Dreadnought takes up 2 tiles on the battle map but can only be hit on the center first row tile.

Trivia

 * The last depth charge it drops appears to be a Reef Bandit's "Pufferfish" depth charge.
 * It is the second known unit to take up more than one grid square, covering 2 when the player faces it.
 * It is the largest unit in the entire game, even when taking into account scaling differences between units.
 * In one of the promotional image for the 4.5 Patch, the Dreadnought can be seen along with 2 enemy Submarines that are in the wrong place.
