The Aigle is back for Golden Eagles and is here to stay!
You can get this destroyer for 850 Golden Eagles.
About this destroyer
The Aigle is a very speedy destroyer. Its ammunition is stored just below the waterline, allowing for protection against explosions, and each turret has anti-fragmentation protection to help protect the crew. The Aigle also features decent torpedoes, and its available shells are well suited to countering boats and other destroyers!

Testing out the Severe Damage mechanic
Today we’ll be taking a look at the Severe Damage mechanic which was first announced last year.

Ever since, we’ve been thinking through this idea and have been carefully designing it. Let’s take a look at what we’ve been up to, and when and where the testing of this new mechanic will take place.
