Most of the other Auxiliary ships are not combat-focused, and so their set-ups are heavily dependent on special mechanics, or can serve for "stat mulling" such as fighter mulling.

=Equipment Chosing=
 +
While the above set-up guide recommends only types of equipment, this section gives the general rules on how to choose equipment within a given type.
 +
 +
Equipment of a same type are mainly differentiated by their "[[Stats]]" ({{Firepower}}, {{Torpedo}}, {{AA}}, ...), including [[Fit Bonuses]] (both visible and invisible) and [[Improvement]]s ({{Star}}) stats, as well as some more specific attributes, like:
 +
* Modifiers brought in certain mechanics, ranging from combat to routing,
 +
* Special mechanics induced by certain equipment...
 +
 +
Equipment have a wide range of stats, however, not all stats are ranked the same way, some being more important than other, depending on the equipment type.
 +
 +
Here, equipment stats are dispatched into 3 categories:
 +
* '''Primary Stats''': stats that influence the effectiveness of the equipment in its main role, being the main choosing factor,
 +
* '''Secondary Stats''': stats that can influence the effectiveness of the equipment for other purposes, helping to choose between equipment sharing the same "Primary Stats".
 +
* '''Bonus Stats''': All the other stats. These stats do not influence the effectiveness of the equipment much, but are appreciable for the general stat stats of the equipping ship.
