This Has To Be Russian Bias ?

[tm63au]

I was in a low Tier match just now on the Polar map spotted this ship beached against an iceberg fired repeated salvos, shells didn't even register any kind of damage then fired a torpedo salvo scored what I thought were two hits , one aft of the second funnel and one in the bow not a scratch.

Seems to be a new ship in game that's unsinkable has to be Russian !

Checked at end of game details didn't even register in the " detail report "

The "ship" you were trying to sink wasn't even on your mini-map.
She's more of a ship-wreck than a ship, at this point in the pixel-world.  😉

It's just scenery.

If it was something you could actually damage and destroy, or a red player, you would lock onto it.

You're targeting a friendly ship, the red ship is behind the island.

Not sure currently if that's a friendly ship or scenery as others are saying, there's something weird about it. First, I don't see any ship information on the UI, which is what you'd be seeing I think if it was either a red or a green team ship. I don't remember any of the 'scenery ships' pushing smoke out of their funnels, though....

Maybe it's a ghost ship that mistook the New Year for Halloween?....

Just went in to a training room, that is a cargo ship that's part of the map.

The ship is the icebreaker Krassin.

I wish WG will update the Polar Map and implement it for high tiers.

Yep, there are quite a bit of Easter eggs scattered on the maps, in the game. Irc there is a zeppelin called Norge and also a camp ( the camp of the crew of another, crashed airship italia)   on one of the corner islands .

Not sure if on the same map, tho.

That's the Krassin (also spelled Krasin) rescuing them!

12 July: Krasin rescues Mariano and Zappi, but Malmgren has already been left behind almost four weeks prior. The five remaining Italia survivors are rescued by the icebreaker later the same day. Boris Chukhnovsky and his four crew are also rescued by the Krasin on its way back to Kings Bay.

Yep. For some reason the second pic from your post didn't loaded, but that's what I was talking about.  Now I see it.
