Help:Ship Priority

Preamble&Explanations

Blah blah, why do I have to suffer and create this page

Explaining that this List assumes a new player... Discounting Support Expeditions it is recommended to have the following quantity of each class ready for an Event (easy mode): xxDD, 2CL, xxCA, xxBB, xxCV

Laying out general criteria what makes ships qualify to be top like special and useful features within their class, as well as aviability and cost to their maximum potential...

This List is grouped by class

Abbreaviations Used
