Fight for a Chance to Win Big - Battle of Heligoland Bight

Bight Fight! 
On August 28, 1914, the British Grand Fleet sprung a surprise attack against a German High Seas Fleet patrol in Heligoland Bight. It was the very first naval engagement of the First World War and an easy victory for the Grand Fleet.


To commemorate the anniversary, join us over the weekend and fight in your favorite British and German vessels. Score some camo and a shot at bigger prizes!
