Designed for singleplayer experiences, the Dolphin is a tier 1 scout-class submarine. It provides a resource scarce challenge to both one-off missions and the start of campaigns, placing decision making and responsibility on it's sole inhabitant.

"Dolphin is a civilian vessel that doubles as a mobile home. This mass produced submarine provides adequate living conditions, and comes equipped with a refurbished turret and a military-grade sonar system." - In-game description

Notable Features

Layout Because the only pump is located in the open-plan ballast, water from the airlock and command room has to be drained by manually opening doors to let the water flow. Both piloting the submarine and operating it's turret can done from a seated position in the command room.

Armament and Coverage The singular dorsal coilgun has limited sightlines, serving a more defensive role. Supercapacitor charge capacity is feeble, and needs upgrades to sustain long conflicts.

Storage and Equipment While the interior has limited storage capacity, the topside exterior can hold up to two cargo crates for miscellaneous storage and cargo delivery missions.

Wi-Fi Channels This submarine does not use Wi-Fi.

Trivia

  • Topside hull is reinforced at the cost of a more vulnerable underbelly.
  • Manually outfitted supplies include Assistant Clothes and The Sailor's Guide, making more jobs viable to start with.
  • Due to it's incredibly small size, the submarine will sink when the airlock is filled with water. It is recommended to secure footing on a stationary surface before venturing out.
