The Conquérante class was a class of battlecruisers built for the Sieuxerrian Navy. The ships came as a direct response to a number of increasingly larger and more capable battleship and battlecruiser designs that were being built or had already been commissioned by the late 1900s. The ships were for a period of time the largest and heaviest capital ships fielded by any navy in the world.

While certainly larger with equal main armament and superior secondary armament to both battleships and battlecruisers, as well as having thicker armor than the Lion class battlecruisers (Which the Conquérantes had been designed to directly compete against), she suffered greatly from her use of coal-fired triple expansion engines as opposed to the steam turbines that had been put in the previous
