11 Overview

44 Every ship hull in Windrose shares the same equipment loadout grammar at the Wharf: a Cannon Slot (main and secondary batteries), a Hull Slot (bracing), a Naval Tactics Slot, and a Crew Slot for boarding-party equipment. The cannon and hull-bracing options are identical across every hull once the caliber and slot count fit; only the number of slots and the compatible calibers differ per hull.

66 This article is the canonical reference for the Cannon Slot and Hull Slot options. Individual ship articles (such as Ketch, Brig, and Frigate) list how many slots that hull carries and which calibers fit, then link back here for the per-variant effect text.

88 Cannon Variants

1010 Each caliber (12, 24, and 36-pounders) has a baseline crafted at the Shipwright's Workshop without a plan paper, plus three ascendable modifier lines: Devastating, Perfectly Ordered, and Tempered. The Rare-tier effect is preserved on ascension to Epic and a second effect is added on top.
