Patrol Boat

Patrol Boat
The first ship a player comes into contact with is the Patrol Boat (PT). Small, fast and agile, this ship is extremely dangerous in the right hands. The ship at first carries only 2 guns, which it is limited to only 3 cannon types at first (Anti ship, Anti air/Anti missile(AA/AM), Anti Submarine) which while they do have low damage, they have a very high ROF allowing the PT to soar through the first levels. It later gets several bridges (Hulls) allowing it to add more weapons such as torpedos. More experienced players will use a Heavy bridge, allowing for 5 light guns to be mounted, which are mostly the 40 mm Autocannon. This combo of speed, agility, and ROF makes the PT the bane of most large ships such as the Battleship. However the PT does lack the HP of most ships, so it needs its speed to survive more than 2 minutes in combat.
