Update 0.11.4 will see the launch of Ranked Battles Season 7.
Starts: Thu. 19 May 10:00 CEST (UTC+2) Ends: Thu. 14 Jul. 01:00 CEST (UTC+2) Format
This season, all the leagues involve Tier VIII and IX ships fighting in a 6 vs. 6 format. The rules for keeping a Star differ between the leagues:
In the Bronze League, players who take the first two places by XP earned keep their Stars in a lost battle. In the Silver League, only the top XP earner keeps their Star in a lost battle. In the Gold League, players do not keep their Stars in a lost battle. These changes emphasize the different levels of competitiveness in each league.
We have revised the number of Stars required to reach Rank 1. The purpose of this is to make sure that the average number of battles required to reach Rank 1 does not change.

This event repeats every year forever
On this day in 1918, while sailing to meet the rest of the Austro-Hungarian fleet gathered for the attempt to break the Otranto Barrage, a dreadnought battleship Szent István (sister of Viribus Unitis) was spotted and engaged by two Italian motor torpedo boats. Two torpedoes from MAS 15 and possibly one from MAS 21 hit the battleship, which capsized and sunk.
This ended the raid on the Barrage and, in turn, motivated Italy to further develop light forces development.

First surface engagement between the Italian and Allied units in WWII - a small convoy of Italian destroyers carrying antitank units to Africa was intercepted by the 7th Cruiser Squadron.
Order of battle:
7th Cruiser Squadron (VAdm John Tovey) 1st Cruiser Division HMS Orion (flagship) HMS Neptune HMAS Sydney HMS Gloucester 2nd Cruiser Division HMS Manchester HMS Gloucester
2nd Destroyer Squadron (Capitano di Fregata Enrico Baroni) Espero (flagship) - Sunk Ostro Zeffiro
Result:
Allied victory - Espero sunk
On the flip side, remaining destroyers escaped and ammunition consumption halted cruiser squadron activities for some time, leading to delays in convoys to Malta.
