German Carriers Event - Ranked Battles

Update 0.9.6 will begin the event dedicated to the Early Access to German aircraft carriers of Tiers IV, VI and VIII.

Key Features of German Aircraft Carriers:

Attack aircraft are equipped with a new type of armament - AP rockets. They can deal a high amount of damage hitting the enemy's citadel, however, just like AP shells, can ricochet or not penetrate the armor hitting at acute angle, and when fired at broadsided destroyers –with their thin armor– will result in overpenetration that deals 10% of the maximum damage.
Bombers are equipped with AP bombs. The attack flight dives immediately, without the prior altitude gain. Since it will be difficult to adjust the position of the aiming cone during an attack, these bombs will be most effective against slow targets.
Torpedoes have high speed, but low range and damage.
Planes have high cruising speed, but relatively small HP pool.

4800 steel and other rewards.

"Modules" Tab Update.
In the 0.9.6 Update we've reworked the "Modules" tab in the Port:

The tab is renamed to "Equipment"
Now managing upgrades, consumables and modules will be performed in a single window without having to switch between tabs.

Content Additions & Changes
Ports "Naval Base", "Azur Lane", "Dragon" and "Sarushima Base" have been adapted for the new lighting model and enhanced HDR technology👊😎.

Icons, Descriptions and Names of several types of Consumables
with special settings were changed. It will emphasise the difference between these types of consumables and standard ones. Descriptions of ship groups in the Tech Tree tool-tips and windows with detailed descriptions were changed as well.

Rules of receiving "Aircraft Carrier Commander" emblems of all stages were changed. Now to get these emblems you'll need to have 60, 71, 84 or 113 thousands of average damage per battle in the last 100 battles. Emblems will be credited to all the players who met new conditions of getting these emblems.
New emblem "Collector. Gold" for collecting 350 ships was added in the game. The "Collector" emblems' design was also changed. With the addition of "Collector. Gold" emblem high-grade emblems would be almost the same visually.

The new design will make a distinction between the emblems of different grades more clear in terms of visuality.
