Bomber: Heavy ordnance. Trades precision for area damage. Active, Cross Strike: Hit 5 cells in a plus shape. Passive, Demolition: When a regular shot sinks a ship, you get another shot.

Radar: Information warfare. Knows where to aim. Active, Sonar Ping: Reveal how many undamaged ship cells are in a 3x3 area. Free: you keep your turn. Passive, Target Analysis: When a regular shot hits, you privately learn which ship you hit. Each of the first 2 ships you sink this way recharges a Sonar Ping (up to 2).

Engineer: Tough fleet that is hard to finish off. Active, Repair: Fully repair a damaged ship that is not sunk and move it to a random free spot, if there is one. Passive, Shield: The first enemy hit on your fleet is absorbed.

Sniper: Relentless. Keeps up the pressure once it finds a target. Active, Line Shot: Shoot along a row from the left edge, stopping at the first ship it reaches. Passive, Momentum: The first hit on each enemy ship gives you another shot, up to 4 times per game.

Magnus: Grandmaster. Plays the board a few moves ahead. Active, Knight's Fork: Reveal whether each cell a chess knight could jump to from your target holds an undamaged ship. Passive, Castling: The first enemy hit that would sink one of your ships is blocked instead.

Pirate: Never where you left it. Raids your stores. Active, Weigh Anchor: Move one of your ships that has been hit at most once to a random spot nobody has shot at. It arrives undamaged, and the enemy sees water where it was hit. Free: you keep your turn. Passive, Plunder: When you sink a ship, with a regular shot or an ability, you get another shot and steal one charge of the enemy's ability, which refills your Weigh Anchor if it is used up.

Submariner: Runs silent. The enemy never knows what it hit. Active, Periscope: See whether one enemy cell holds an undamaged ship. Free: you keep your turn. Passive, Run Silent: Your Submarine sails submerged. The first hit on it looks like a miss, until the enemy hits it again or shoots a cell right next to that hit.

Joker: Wild card. Nobody knows what it brings, not even the Joker. Active, Wild Active: A random active from another class, drawn when you are ready. Passive, Wild Passive: A random passive from another class, drawn when you are ready.
