2020 Caliber Comparison
2121  
2222 All three baseline cannon calibers share the same 380 ATK ceiling, Range Rank A, Accuracy Rank B, and Max Item Level 15. The difference is per-volley damage against reload time and the material cost to build them. The 12-pound gun is the lightest and fastest-reloading of the three.

2525 The 12-pound gun reloads three seconds faster than a 36-pound gun, which matters in sustained Naval Combat where total broadsides landed often beats raw per-shot damage. Because every hull in the game carries at least one 12-pound slot, this caliber is the universal fallback while you gather materials for heavier guns. The exact 24-pound damage figure is not confirmed in the current data, so treat it as an interpolation between the 12 and 36 values.

2727 When to Use
2828  
2929 The baseline 12-Pounders is the most accessible cannon of its caliber and requires no Recipe Papers to craft. It trades mechanical effect for raw availability, which matters when you need to re-arm mid-campaign or outfit a new hull quickly before hunting down higher-tier plans.
