  1. Historically "B" is a pre-1920 naming, sometimes used to designate pre-Dreadnought battleships, Super Dreadnought being informal and simply called BB.
  2. Historically, all battleships in the game are classified as super dreadnoughts but Gangut and Conte di Cavour.
  3. Not a proper NATO hull classification code, the real code being CC, or for "Large Cruisers" being CB.
Notes
  • Some Abyssals also have some other exclusive sub-types.
  • So far, the following types are fully interchangeable regarding Routing, Expeditions, and Quests requirement:
    • CV and CVB
