Variants[edit]

Naval units may be customized using naval experience. This consists of assigning points to four categories. The categories available varies with the type of class. Here are known categories:

  • Armor (Increases protection especially against air attacks but reduce speed and deckspace.)
  • Reliability (Reduces the chance of the ship getting critically hit.)
  • Weapons/Deckspace (Weapons: Unknown/Deckspace: Increases the max number of aircraft the ship can carry.)
  • Engine (Increases speed.)

Each point spent in non-reliability categories increases the chance of the ship getting critically hit.

Variants may be changed during production at a cost of some delay.
