As I said, WWI Dreadnought. Austro-Hungarian ship named Szént Istvan. It has all the hallmarks of a Dreadnought. Main battery of the same calibre (30,5 cm) and secondary battery too (15 cm).
That's what it looked like in reality.
And that's "His"(Austro Hingarian ships were always male) history.

Cool! I'm sorry to make you repeat it. I saw after the fact that you'd already been asked, and had answered. I figure nobody else would be interested, so I didn't read ahead.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
