Special Operations Details

Special Operations will run alongside standard Operations and will be available as a separate battle type for the duration of Update 14.0. Here are the operations that will have a special version:

• Naval Station Newport
• Raptor Rescue
• The Ultimate Frontier
• Hermes
• Aegis
• Cherry Blossom

You can go into battle against Flagships while playing Battleships, Cruisers, Destroyers, and Aircraft Carriers of Tiers IX-X.

Flagship Mechanics

Flagships boast increased HP and apply effects to nearby allies within a certain range. Additionally, each Flagship will have a key vulnerability to a certain type of damage. For example, features of a Flagship may include:

• Increasing nearby allies' shell penetration
• Increasing nearby allies' speed
• Vulnerability to AP and SAP shells

If a certain amount of damage is dealt to a bot with AP and SAP shells and it is destroyed while within a Flagship's area of effect, it will detonate, dealing damage in a larger radius. Flagships will be highlighted in battle with a special marker.

Weekly Rotation and Final Challenge

Players will face a total of three Flagships with unique attributes throughout Update 14.0. In the first three weeks of the Update, one of the Flagships will lead the enemy fleet in Special Operations. They will rotate weekly, and you will know which Flagship you will encounter in each week's battles. In the final week of the Update, players will face all three Flagships simultaneously. Note that Flagships will not apply effects to each other.

Prepare for a challenging and thrilling experience with these new Special Operations in Update 14.0!
