Operational doctrine
MacArthur starts with an operational Sea Shadow boat and I-400 submarine. Dominating the water ring from tick zero denies enemy buoys and screens coastal road approaches from the very start.
- Opening Sea Shadow patrols contested coastlines and intercepts enemy submarine periscopes.
- Speed bonuses on patrol boats allow swift repositioning across island channels.
Signature tech: Island Hopping
Elevates littoral dominance to an art, stacking boat velocity to +30% to run down enemy transports and shell beachheads with impunity.
Unique assets
Amtrac transports bridge land and sea frontiers, while Seabee Yards support expanded naval flotillas.
