It might seem to be the simplest part of the game, but the reality is quite different.
Learning to sail on expert level is the hardest thing in the game.
You must consider dozens of various factors such as speed, maneuverability, armor or map shape.
First thing you must consider is the speed and maneuverability of your ship.
If you control a slow and not agile battleship, you must carefully plan your route.
You won’t be able to correct your course during the half of the battle.
You should act oppositely when controlling the destroyers.
However, similarly to the battleship, you must avoid being attacked between the islands.
When controlling the aircraft carrier, you must remember that your warship has very little maneuverability.
Sail towards the part of the map that is most distant from the enemies.
When sailing on long distance, sometimes it is better to use the autopilot.
It is especially helpful in case of battleships, and in case of aircraft carriers it is practically mandatory.
However, remember for the created lines to have as small angles as possible.
This will allow you to avoid stopping your ship before each turn and losing speed.
Some words should be said about ship speed as well.
Not always setting the turbines on maximum power is the best option.
This will give you more time to aim and shoot more salvos.
It’s important especially in case of battleships fighting weaker armored ships.
The only ship punch in that should maintain the maximum speed constantly is destroyers.
In this case you will lose the speed by sudden maneuvers anyway.
In their case the speed is also the only defense from enemy attacks.
Now, let’s get to sailing while shooting with enemy.
Most of all, you should avoid enemy bullets.
It can be done in few ways, depending on what warship throw in you control.
However, it must be such angle that will still allow you to attack using all the cannons.
You must absolutely avoid positioning yourself parallel to enemy.
It would end with massive damage received.
Other tactic should be used when controlling a destroyer.
You should maximally utilize your warships' agility.
It would be best if you could hide behind some obstacle during the torpedoes reload.
