Navigation and gun control are split between keyboard and mouse and if you’ve played any FPS or World of Tanks/Warplanes in the past you’ll feel immediately comfortable with the controls. Once you’ve picked your craft from your dockyard, it’s straight into the action. When it comes to controlling your ship it’s surprisingly easy.

Also destroyers only have 22mm thick armor but they are armed with torpedoes which can be devastating to any kind of ships.” The cruisers have precise weapons and move faster than battleships but slower than destroyers.
