Ship's speed can take the following values:

  • Slow (低速)
  • Fast (高速)
  • Fast+ (高速+)
  • Fastest (最速)

Initially, a ship is either slow or fast, the speed can be increased (from slow to fast to fast+ to fastest) using the engine synergy, by equipping a turbineImproved Kanhon Type Turbine (can be equipped in the expansion slotReinforcement Expansion) and one or more boilers (Enhanced Kanhon Type BoilerEnhanced Kanhon Type Boiler and New Model High Temperature High Pressure BoilerNew Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler) on a ship. The effects are

  • Increase in speed, slow ships will be fast and will count as fast for branching rules. It is also assumed that fast+ and fastest will have their own branching rules in the future.
    • Note, however, that this doesn't change ship types, initially slow BB and BBV (ship types 9 and 10) can have fast speed, but still aren't FBB (ship type 8).
  • Devs claim that higher speed values increase evasion. However, its magnitude/scope/existence is still investigated by players (preliminary tests suggest that there is no significant increase in evasion[1][2]).
  • Fast+ and Fastest speed values allow BB and BBV to be used in the CTF/STF escort fleet.
