Lots of battles against event ships - and you might have to fight each of them twice!

First phase

You have to battle the armada in its “living” form.

You meet normal ships, shooting as normal ships and sinking as normal ships!​

Second phase

During this phase of the event, the event ships seem normal, but if sunk, they are likely to return from the afterlife and you must fight them again as “undead” creatures.

The “zombie form” is much stronger, because they have an extra voodoo shield, but the rewards are definitely also much better.​

The following event ships can be found on maps 5 – 35/1:
