Ships

What this is, and what it is not

Nobody publishes ship stats. Everybody publishes ship opinions.

We went looking for hull numbers — attack, armour, cargo, speed by level — and found that no site on the open web carries them. What the guides carry instead is role, rarity, how a ship is obtained, and whether it is worth chasing without paying. That is what is below, attributed, and it is the reason there is no ship tier list here: a tier list is a judgement, and we do not have the numbers to check anyone's.

What we cannot prove here

0 of these 136 values clear two independent sources. None of them do.

Everything else is a lead: one source said it, we recorded who and where, and we are showing it to you marked rather than pretending it is confirmed. That is the honest state of ship data on the open web right now — not a shortfall in this page.

Sources behind this page: Sea of Conquest Handbook, ingame:RTS Mobile. Every value, with its readings, is in the ledger and as JSON in /data.
