Ironclad Ships
History
When The Great Rewind came about the British knew that they needed a military force but as The Great Rewind reversed their technology back to the 1860s-1880s, they knew of one place that they could find a living replica of a ship of the era. A ship moored in Portsmouth, HMS Warrior, that had been turned into a historical tourist spot in The Old World, became a place of research. This research was indeed to reverse engineer the existing ship to make engineering schematics and from there make more of the ships in the future.Composition
