The Rotterdam Dockyard: Construction of De Zeven Provinciёn

In Update 0.10.7, you will be able to start building a new Dutch cruiser—De Zeven Provinciën.

VIII De Zeven Provinciën is the lead ship of her series. She was laid down before the outbreak of World War II and completed in the 1950s under a revised project. De Zeven Provinciën was acquired by Peru in the second half of the 20th century, and it was only in September 2017 that the last ship of this series was decommissioned. The ships of this class were the last artillery cruisers in service.

VIII De Zeven Provinciën is armed with eight dual-purpose 152 mm guns housed in four turrets. The ship is equipped with the Repair Party and Engine Boost consumables, as well as the Airstrike armament. The ship's guns have a medium firing range and high rate of fire. She is able to quickly change flanks and take up advantageous positions thanks to her Engine Boost consumable.

If you want to complete shipbuilding phases at a discount, you can purchase Starter Packs: nine shipbuilding phases in exchange for 8,950 Doubloons and three shipbuilding phases in exchange for 3,950 Doubloons.
The Dockyard combat missions span two updates—0.10.7 and 0.10.8. You will be able to complete shipbuilding phases in exchange for Doubloons until the end of Update 0.10.9.

Completing shipbuilding phases will reward you with a container with a Tier V Premium ship, Steel, Coal, Free XP, Elite Commander XP, days of Premium Account, Distant Voyages containers, and other rewards.
Upon completing the 24th shipbuilding phase, you'll receive VIII De Zeven Provinciën in the War Paint camouflage, a Commander with 10 skill points, a Port slot, and a commemorative flag.
