Completing Campaigns are one of the ways to acquire Cores for remodelling, the other one is by completing some of the daily quests. The campaigns are based on real life events and the enemies are named after ships involved in the said campaign.

There are four campaigns where a player can choose from normal mode and hard mode. A player can participate in 8 battles a day.

  • Battle of Narvik
  • Battle of Cape Matapan
  • Battle of the Denmark Strait
  • Battle of Coral Sea
  • Ambush on English Channel

Winning a campaign with Rank S or above in normal mode gives the player a 20% chance of acquiring a core. In hard mode the possibility of acquiring a core is increased to 60% but you can only sortie with a specific fleet composition. There is a small chance of acquiring a core with lower rank. In addition to the core, a player also gets resources.

Corresponding Battles in History[]

Battle of Narvik

The Battle of Narvik was fought from 9 April to 8 June 1940. The battleship of Royal Navy, HMS Warspite, sank several German Z-class destroyers in this battle.

In normal mode we are British Navy. Because of the wrong intelligence, only five destroyers were sent to fight with 9 German destroyers. However British Navy still continued the attack and achieved victory. The swordfish of Warspite sank the submarine U-64 as you can see in normal mode, which was the first submarine that was sunk by an aircraft.

In hard mode we are German Navy. The enemies were HMS Warspite, which is the flagship in game, and some destroyers. Here was the burial ground of Z-destroyers in history.

Battle of Cape Matapan

Cape Matapan is on the southwest coast of Greece's Peloponnesian peninsula. In both modes of this battle, we are Italian Navy that fought against British Navy in history.

On 27 March, Vice-Admiral Pridham-Wippell—with the cruisers Ajax, Gloucester, Orion and Perth and a number of destroyers—sailed from Greek waters for a position south of Crete. Admiral Cunningham with Formidable, Warspite, Barham and Valiant left Alexandria on the same day to meet the cruisers.

The three battleships in normal mode are Warspite, Barham, Valiant and three cruisers are Ajax, Gloucester and Orion. HMS Formidable appears in hard mode of this battle. For the Italian Navy, Vittorio Veneto would fight against British Navy.

The Battle of Cape Matapan shows the importance of night battles. After WWI Britain has realised the importance of night battle and were well-prepared for it. Italian navy, however, did not realise it so there were no radar on warships and were unable to spot the position of enemies at night. As for the details of this battle, please refer to the information on Wikipedia.

Battle of the Denmark Strait

Battle of Denmark Strait is famous for German battleship Bismarck, cruiser Prinz Eugen, and HMS Hood, HMS Price of Wales. Bismarck and Prinz Eugen were attempting to break out into the North Altantic to attack Allied merchant shipping, which is Operation Rheinübung.

Spotted by Swedish forces, Royal Navy sent HMS Hood, HMS Prince of Wales, together with HMS Suffolk and HMS Norfolk to intercept them. Bismarck and Prinz Eugen appear in both normal and hard mode in game.

Two forces engaged at 05:35. Because of the radar failure, Bismarck and Prinz Eugen exchanged their position, which made Hood mistake Prinz Eugen for Bismarck, while German ships were attacking Hood and detonated Hood's magazine. This caused a great explosion and Hood sank only 3 minutes after detonation. Suffolk and Norfolk did not managed to attend this historic battle because of their slow speed.

The type 7 uboat submarines were in the Denmark Strait at the time but had no ammunition, so they contributed nothing to the battle. The two type 7 uboat submarines were U-74 and U-556. The U class of submarines is a class of 49 British diesel-electric submarines used around WW2.

Battle of the Coral Sea

Fought in May 1942, the Battle of Coral Sea was the first time that aircraft carriers fought against each other with aircraft. US Navy lost Lexington in this battle and another aircraft carrier, Yorktown, was damaged, while IJN lost one light aircraft carrier Shoho and aircraft carrier Shokaku was damaged.

93 aircraft (18 F4F Wildcats, 53 SBD dive bombers, and 22 TBD Devastator torpedo bombers) were on their way searching for Japanese aircraft carriers Shokaku and Zuikaku. The searching did not succeed but they found a light aircraft carrier Shoho (which is the enemy flagship in normal mode).

On the second day of battle, US and Japanese forces spotted each other at almost the same time and launched aircraft to attack on each other. With the help of the cloud, Zuikaku was able to send more fighters and US aircraft were unable to form the formation quickly. Attacked by two squadrons from the bow and hit by two torpedoes and two bombs, Lexington was critically damaged, and was scuttled as a result.
