Asymmetric Battles

Asymmetric Battles will return in Update 12.5. This battle type is inspired by historical battles that typically involved an unequal number of ships on each side.

In this new installment of Asymmetric Battles, players will face a team of bots that outnumbers them in ships but falls short in terms of firepower.
