I'm Shinshuu Maru, the first true landing craft depot ship - known in modern times as amphibious assault ships - built by the Imperial Japanese Army. I can be fully loaded with Daihatsu-class other landing craft with fully-armed IJA units. I can then rapidly launch them in succession from my floodable well deck. I worked hard in the first landing operations at the start of the war and transport operations near the end. Admiral, please remember me well.
日本陸軍が建造した、本格的な上陸用船艇母艦、現代で言う「強襲揚陸艦」、その一番艦、神州丸です。完全武装した陸軍部隊を載せた、大発動艇などを満載。その泛水装備で、連続発進が可能です。初戦の上陸戦、そして末期の輸送作戦でも奮闘しました。提督殿、覚えていてくださいね。

  1. She is referring to one of her aliases, "R1". That stands for "Rikugun 1" (Army 1).
  2. She is referring to another one of her aliases, "GL". That stands for "God Land", the literal translation of her name.
  3. "Room for horses" was used to disguise the true purpose of her well deck before the Second Sino-Japanese War.
  4. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  5. Another one of her aliases. "MT" comes from the last names of the first and second heads of the Army Transport Department, Matsuda Kenpei and Tajiri Shouji.
  6. During the Battle of Sunda Strait, a six-torpedo spread from Mogami missed Houston. Five of the torpedoes instead hit IJA transports and sank Shinshuu Maru, but she was later raised from the shallow waters. Ironically this was one of the most effective torpedo salvoes of the war.

  3. Lake Suwa in Nagano Prefecture, formerly Shinano or Shinshuu Province.
