American aircraft carrier F. D. Roosevelt, Tier X:
Roosevelt’s aircraft will have:
A solid supply of armament, a good amount of hit points, low speed and an interval of 25 seconds between squadron attacks. Also, all the aircraft carrier’s squadrons are equipped with a “Repair” consumable with special settings:
- The consumable is recharged more quickly.
- The action time is longer than on other aircraft carriers.
- Restores less amount of hit points than the same consumable on the other aircraft carriers.
Roosevelt’s attack aircraft will also have special rocket launcher settings. They will be fired one by one and over a large area. Therefore, this type of armament will not be excessively effective against small and maneuverable targets, such as destroyers.
French battleship Champagne, Tier VIII:
The ship is a high-speed battleship with 2×3 406 mm guns. The accuracy settings are similar to those of large cruisers. The ship has quite weak armor. Due to good ballistics and accuracy, this ship can effectively deal damage to enemy ships at long range. However, Champagne herself is vulnerable to enemy fire and relies on her high speed of 34 knots and the “Engine Boost” consumable to escape danger.
Also, Italian Tier VIII battleship Impero and Japanese Tier VIII battleship Asama will be added to the game for testing. These ships are based on the Italian battleship Roma and Japanese battleship Amagi, but with changed characteristics and consumables.
Impero and Asama:
- Impero will be equipped with semi-armor piercing shells instead of high explosive ones and will have “Exhaust Smoke Generator” consumable. At the same time, it will have increased reload time of the main caliber guns.
- Asama is at an early stage of testing and her special characteristics will be announced later.
