FS Super Alsace is coming soon

FS Super Alsace — a French Navy fast battleship project featuring an unconventional weapon layout. Its striking power lies in the combination of large-caliber artillery, auxiliary launchers, and automated gun systems. Special emphasis was placed on air defense: the ship boasts an extensive array of diverse anti-aircraft systems that form a dense shield against any airborne threats.

New Additions :

Modele 1935 (380 mm) — a French naval four-gun 380 mm artillery mount. Combining exceptional accuracy and long range, it delivers devastating blows to enemy vessels from afar, posing a serious threat to any surface target.

Modele 1930 (100 mm) — a French twin-barreled 100 mm automatic naval gun mount. Highly versatile in combat, it offers fast and precise firepower capable of engaging both aerial and surface targets at extended ranges, significantly enhancing the ship’s defensive potential.

Aster 15 EC — a modified Franco-Italian surface-to-air missile. Featuring accelerated launch readiness and high long-range efficiency, it can intercept a wide range of airborne threats — from agile aircraft to high-speed missiles.

Aster 30 Block 2 BMD — a powerful French surface-to-air missile system capable of single-shot engagement. Designed to neutralize large, heavily protected airborne targets at long distances, it combines an upgraded propulsion stage with improved guidance for highly reliable interception.

Characteristic features in combat

Pros:

1. A powerful battery of four main guns and four ASROC launchers allows the ship to deliver crushing firepower against any visible target, making it a formidable opponent at all ranges.
2. One of the best air defense suites in its class provides reliable protection from all types of aerial threats, while the option to replace most installations offers flexibility for layered defense configurations.
3. A well-thought-out combination of ASROC launchers, AA systems, and helicopter support turns this battleship into a versatile force — a dependable ally for fire support or a fearsome weapon in solo operations.
4. Excellent maneuverability allows rapid repositioning, taking advantageous angles, and employing tactics unavailable to heavier, less agile battleships.

Cons:

1. The absence of missile batteries limits long-range potential, so the ship’s effectiveness heavily depends on gunnery precision and crew skill.
2. To unlock the full potential of its air defenses, players must replace the Crotale R440 systems and upgrade all five AA slots, which requires additional investment.

The new French battleship is a direct invitation to return to the golden age of big guns. It embodies the era when naval dominance was defined by accuracy and sheer artillery power rather than missile supremacy. Yet this design is far from a relic — its modern air defense systems and multipurpose ASROC launchers make any encounter with it deadly, even for contemporary cruisers and destroyers.

The ship’s gameplay is focused on front-line combat. With high durability, dependable air defenses, and four heavy guns, it excels in direct engagements. Coordinated salvos from the main battery and ASROCs can unleash such devastating damage that enemies are forced to retreat and repair — if they survive. Flanking maneuvers on medium ranges are also effective, rewarding players who can time their weapon usage correctly. Long-range fire, however, is best reserved for experienced gunners who can accurately gauge distance — without that, precision drops sharply.

FS Super Alsace will appeal to fans of the “classic” battleship school — those who love the thunderous roar of cannons and the raw power of heavy artillery. At the same time, it remains a flexible combat platform: it rewards either skilled dueling or smart coordination within a squad. This isn’t a museum relic rusting in port — it’s a vessel of serious might, built to strike fast and deliver decisive victories on the battlefield.
