So recently this was announced by an admin for an event, giving us this picture.
Fleet Preview.jpg
So, I thought to look up basically what all of these bloody things and 2-letter designations are, so instead of looking them up for yourself, here's a rough list:
Large Crafts:
AO: Oiler / portable gas station (support ship) (vulnerable)
CV: Carrier, weak in general to direct fire, easy to detect.
BB: Battleship, probably has good anti-missile lasers/munitions but lacks in Anti-small-craft fire, easy to detect.
CG: Cruiser (guided missile), good munitions, probably has good anti-small-craft fire, but probably not very maneuverable, probably easy to detect.
FF: Frigate (Between Destroyer and Cruiser), probably has a good anti-small-craft and munitions, but no anti-missile lasers/munitions, probably a little harder to detect.
DD: Destroyer, Good munitions, but probably only for close range, good anti-missile lasers/munitions, but little to no anti-small-craft munitions, Hard to detect, Good at detecting Submarines by perhaps revealing themselves by pinging an area.
FS: Fleet Submarine, Like a destroyer, but sacrifices anti-missile lasers/munitions for less size, more munition range, and even more difficulty to detect. I'm actually kinda scared to go up against these things because of how hard they will be to detect.
Small Crafts:
F: Fighter
A/B: Attack Craft / Bomber (kinda the same thing)
EA: Corvette/mix of fighter and bomber
So ... now that you know the designations, let's go to the fleet's matching up:
American/USCM/USSN:
AO's: 1
CV's: 1, with total carrier group of 4?
BB's: 0
CG's: 2
FF's: 3
DD's: 3
FS': 0
F's: 2
B's: 1
EA's: 1
UPPN:
AO's: 0
CV's: 1, with total carrier group of 2?
BB's: 1
CG's: 1
FF's: 0
DD's: 1
FS': 3, I'm guessing the UPPN will likely rely HEAVILY on these since I don't see much else that would give them an advantage.
F's: 1
B's: 1
EA's: 0
In all honesty, I am REALLY excited to see this event play out.
Psst, devs ...

If you want any help with the event like keeping track of where things are like a record keeper

hit me up, I'll gladly forego the round for it.
