The Battle of Gibraltar Straits
The battle of Gibraltar Straits was a battle in the Vizion Civil War where Questarian naval forces clashed with MassPwnage and Bandurian naval forces for the control of the strait. Whoever controlled this passage would have a significant advantage over the other in the land battle in mainland ViZion, where a small number of Questarians and Praetonians were holding onto the capital. The highlight of the battle was when the Questarian Megadreadnought HMS Hood was destroyed by a Pwnage keelbreaker torpedo, taking the commander in chief of the Atlantic Questarian Navy, Admiral of the Red Richard Fairham and his flagship to the bottom.
