===============================================================================
This is a complete list of all hulls, structures, and engines in Warship
Gunner 2. All parts are listed in order as they appear in the technical
reference guide. Although this has a large influence in the order in which
they can be researched, research requirements are outside the scope of this
faq.
All ships must have a hull, bridge, and engine which is why I’ve combined those
items into one faq. Weapons, systems, and aircraft can be added based on the
ship’s use, and more detailed information can be found in their respective
faqs.
I have also included a table on armor even though it's not a mandatory ship
requirement. But since I doubt anyone will write (or read) an faq on just
armor, I thought I'd just list it here.
In this entire guide, there is only one thing that cannot be researched, it
can only be found as a pickup or as an award. It is the U.K. Destroyer 6.
There's nothing special about it, so I don't know why.
I was planning on putting in a complete list of Secret Blueprints, but I’ve
never had any use for them. And based on the board discussions, no one else
uses them either. If anyone has a compelling reason for complete descriptions
of each Secret Blueprint, just let me know and I’ll add it here.
Once again, I'm using tankboy’s nomenclature for roman letters and numbers so
there's some consistency between faqs for this game.
========
Notation
========
Translated symbols:
a = alpha
b = beta
g = gamma
d = delta
e = epsilon
Other abbreviations:
Wt = Weight in tons
TR = Turn radius
Co = Command
Rd = Radar
Sn = Sonar
HW = Hull weight (the weight of the hull alone)
MW = Maximum weight (total amount of weight the hull can support)
En = Endurance
Ai = Aircraft
SS = System slots
Pu = Purge
Eff = Efficiency
=====
Hulls
=====
The drillship and genuine drillship are the only hulls which can cause ramming
damage. They are also immune to collision damage. All other ships will take
collision damage if you're on difficulty hard or higher.
Note: In order to get frigates, you need to research all destroyer and cruiser
templates (e.g. Destroyer 5,6, etc.), not the individual ships (e.g. Jpn
Destroyer 5, Ger Destroyer 5, etc.). I know I said I wasn’t going to talk
about research requirements, but this question keeps coming up.

==========
Structures
==========
There are three types of structures: forward bridge, aft bridge, and others.
You must have a forward bridge on your ship. An aft bridge is optional and
must be placed behind a forward bridge.
Note: In the technical reference guide, Jpn DD FWD Bridge g and Jpn DD AFT
Bridge g are listed after the carrier bridges.

======
Engine
======
All ships have a maximum cruising speed of 64.6 knots regardless of how many
engines or turbines you have. The only way to go faster is with thrusters
which increase your speed for a few seconds, or with engimatechs. You can
combine multiple enigmatechs to boost your sustained cruising speed to well
over 150 knots.
Boilers, nuclear reactors, fusion reactors, and gas turbines are called "Power"
in the research screen and "Power Source" in the technical reference guide.
=======
Boilers
=======
Boilers require smokestacks.

Armor
=====
A ship's armor is considered core if your structures and weapons occupy 53%
or less of the total length of the ship, also know as the armor rating. At
54% your armor becomes full.
The total weight of the armor is calculated like this:
If Full armor: armor rating X plating weight
Example: armor rating of 75%; 10cm armor; base ship weight of 4680 tons
75% X 80 tons = 60 tons for armor
4680 + 60 = 4740 tons total weight of ship
If Core armor: armor rating X 80% X plating weight
Example: armor rating of 20%; 10cm armor; base ship weight of 4680 tons
20% X 80% X 80 tons = 12.8 tons for armor
4680 + 12.8 = 4692 tons total weight of ship

S-ranked ship
=============
In order to get the medal, you’ll need to build a ship ranked A in all
categories and use it in one mission.
Here are the minimum requirements for an S-ranked ship:
Offensive:
1 magnetic pulse cannon (combining smaller guns doesn't seem to work)
Anti-air:
10 machine guns + auto-countermeasures 2 (nothing has to be in the extra auto
slots, you just need the system itself)
Armor:
61 cm
Response:
1 anti-sub missile (the real requirement is to have at least one weapon in each
category of anti-ship, anti-air, and anti-sub; since you already have the other
two, you only need a single anti-sub weapon)
Command:
command >= 235 without enigmatechs (the calculations get a little tricky when
you start adding in +25% and such, so get as high of a command as possible
before adding modifiers.)
Mobility:
ship speed >= 40.0 knots
As long as you have the weapons, the hardest part is the command. You'll need
both a Fwd and Aft Bridge and several systems to get it high enough. This can
all be done for less than 25k tons, so a Jpn Battleship 5 or bigger should be
your hull.
You can use anything bigger if you want (e.g. twin-hull battleship, sepia pulse
cannon, ciws, etc.) but really, the ship is pretty much useless. You end up
wasting most of your system slots on increasing command, leaving your ship
without a shield, auto-loader, or any number of more useful things. So use it
on the easiest level as possible to get your medal and then scrap it.
=============================
Advice on how to build a ship
=============================
I don't really have a lot of advice for you, but I'll share the few thoughts
that I have.
- Using the hull with the highest maximum weight allowance is not always the
best choice. As you research new and better weapons, your natural tendency
is to install them right away. Besides the obvious weight and ammo
considerations, deck space will become a big problem. You may have to change
your hull to something that has a lower maximum weight in order to get a
wider deck or a deck with a better configuration.
- Build task specific ships. Like an S-ranked ship, trying to build a ship
that does everything, ends up becoming a ship that is good at nothing.
Build ships that are specific to your current needs. If there aren't any
subs in a mission, ditch your depth charges. If you want to farm for parts,
build a really fast frigate that can race around picking up crates. If you
need a boss killer, build a huge battleship with tons of forward armaments.
If the mission is during the day, ditch your night vision. Etc.
- Similar to hulls, each structure has a different shape and size. Sometimes
you'll have to pick a bridge with a lower command in order to fit on your
deck.
- If you keep running out of system slots, consider researching and using a
better bridge so you can ditch your radar and sonar systems.
- The position of the catapult and elevators doesn’t matter, they still have
the same effect. You can stack all the catapults next to each other and then
stick a giant gun in front of them (which you wouldn’t do on a real ship) and
your airplanes will be just fine.
