Researching Hulls



While the majority of the hulls used in Battle Pirates can only be attained through Forsaken MIssions and Raids, thirteen of them are available to research in the Naval Lab.

Most of the researchable hulls represent a steady progression of increased slots for weapons, specials, and armor, and increased total tonnage capacity. It return they generally lose speed and evasion. Exceptions to this tren include the Seawolf, which sacrifices armor for speed, the Submarines with their ability to submerge, the Arbiter which can carry Tactical Modules, and the Hammerhead, which has less cargo capacity than the Floating Fortress but is otherwise faster and more capable. Details on each hull's strengths, weaknesses, and costs, can be on the Battle Pirate Hulls page.

This table details the requirements for researching hulls. The Gunboat hull is the default hull, and is unlocked when the game is first joined.
