Academy Buildings[]

Academyoverview

The Academy has six functioning buildings, clockwise from the top.

  1. Lecture Hall
  2. Tactical Class
  3. Munition
  4. Merchant
  5. Canteen
  6. Medallion


Lecture Hall[]

The Lecture Hall enables up to five ships to gain EXP similar to the Dorm but with several differences:

  • The Lecture Hall stores a percent of the EXP level 100 ships receive;
  • This stored EXP is given to ships in the Lecture Hall; and
  • Each lecture lasts 12 hours but can be stopped manually, EXP will be given in proportion to the duration of the lecture.

Additionally, there are several restrictions for the Lecture Hall:

  • Ships in the Dorm or Tactical Classroom cannot be placed in the Lecture Hall;
  • The Lecture Hall does not store EXP from exercises;
  • Ships in the Lecture Hall will slowly lose Morale, ships with low morale cannot be placed in the Lecture Hall; and
  • Depending on the day of the week, only specific ships types can participate in the Lecture Hall, as listed below:
Day Type Notes
Monday Destroyer Submarine Submarine Carrier Repair Ship Munition Ship
Tuesday Light Cruiser Heavy Cruiser Repair Ship Munition Ship
Wednesday Battleship Battlecruiser Monitor Aviation Battleship
Thursday Aircraft Carrier Light Aircraft Carrier Aviation Battleship
Friday Destroyer Submarine Submarine Carrier Repair Ship Munition Ship
Saturday Light Cruiser Heavy Cruiser Repair Ship Munition Ship
Sunday None Lecture Hall closed but exp is stored at 2x the normal rate

Tactics

In the Tactical Class players can train shipgirls' skills by spending Skill Books.

There are three types of skill books and three tiers of each. Using a skill book of the same type as the skill gives a bonus 50% toward training.

A shipgirl training a skill in the Tactical Class can still be used in a sortie.
