Construction is accessible from the Arsenal menu and allows building new ship girls. Note that not all ships are available from construction, some being drops from normal maps, and others event exclusive (see below for details).
- For a more comprehensive list of construction recipes and rates, please see PoiDB's construction page.
Construction Types
Normal Construction
"Normal Construction" is the basic construction method. Recipes range from 30-999 fuel 
, ammo 
, steel 
and bauxite 
and each attempt costs 1 development material 
. Speeding up construction costs 1 instant construction 
.
- Construction results are solely determined by the amount of resources used.
If applicable, it is often more resource efficient to find a desired ship in sorties as a drop rather than building them.
Large Ship Construction
"Large Ship Construction" (LSC) allows to build rarer "bigger" ships in exchange for more resources. Recipes range from 1500-7000 fuel and ammo ; 2000-7000 steel and 1000-7000 bauxite . Each attempt also costs either 1, 20, or 100 development materials . Speeding up construction costs 10 instant construction .
- LSC is unlocked by completing quest F10.
- According to the developers, having empty construction docks very slightly increases the chances of obtaining rarer ships [1]. This statement has not been fully tested yet.
- Construction results are solely determined by the amount of resources and devmats used.
- For few ships, an exact Secretary is required in order to be built, see below.
Special Secretary
Some ships require a specific Secretary (1st fleet flagship) in order to be crafted.
- For any other construction, the Secretary is independent of the crafting result.
