You build a more powerful ship, its worth more to blow up. You're not "adding xp" to them

"Ship XP" increases as your ship wins more battles. There are also star system improvements of which the only function is to add "Ship XP". As such, I am reasonably certain that it will eventually (even if it does not currently) serve some other function, such as improving accuracy, defenses, damage, etc.



Also, without any of the aforementioned star system improvements, or winning any battles, even the beefiest dreadnoughts will have a Ship XP of 0 when built.

Currently, as far as I can see it doesn't affect attack&defense, but it bumps ship HP by 10%. Level is kept between retrofits; and this level systems allow Hissho to build super-destroyer fleets with very, very high HP (I had one destroyer sitting at 1100ish HP, it was level 8 I think)

Hissho Wargame Center ftw. This improvement adds XP to each ship, each turn it is there. Build destroyers early, before you need them, and idle them there. Then when they are high level, retrofit them with your latest current weapon/shield and go destroy stuff!

Exactly smiley: smile



Also, I'm not sure but, those +Ship XP stuff you build on the systems seems to be cumulative. So, if you send them to a empire-tour, they'll come back as "men". But I'm not sure about this. Tracking which system having what gets a bit tricky as you colonize more stuff. Better sit where they can "play games"

Maybe its for every one of your systems that has that 6xp bonus your fleet goes to they get xp for. I noticed that one of my admirals got a level after he flew to a system, I just thought he got experience for flying his fleet around, but this makes more sense although it may just be a bug.

I obsessively build all the improvements for the xp but don't really get any feedback for that. I want to know my ships are extra badass please.

Ship XP gives a nonlinear increase in ship hp per level gained.

Yeah, the building that says +6 Ship XP, I think you don't need to build a ship there to get it. You can move a fleet there to get a one-time +6 XP from that system. And by cumulative, I meant that, assuming that each system has that +6 Ship XP building, you can send your fleet to each system you own, and "collect" all those +6 Ship XP bonus.



But I am not sure. Only time I cared about this topic was, I was playing as Hissho, and instead of moving my fleet around, I let them sit idle on a system with Wargame Center. It isn't easy to know which system has what improvement, at least at a quick glance.

Careful with the XP though: As it is now as soon as your ships turn lvl 11 every bonus is gone and they will be treated as lvl 1 smiley: wink. I really hope this will be adressed in the next release/patch.

Are there several different buildings that affect ship XP? There are several which give a boost to ships built there, starting with Hardened Frame. I have tried the Hissho Wargame Center, details below. But if there is some other building that gives +6 XP to ships that just visit, I would love to know.



The Hissho WC gives 1 xp to each ship in the system per turn. This includes ships in the hangar. It has no effect on ships in other systems, and having multiple WC in different systems does not change the +1 XP.



For a particular ship with 550 base HP, I found: L1 550 HP, L2 575 HP, L3 600 HP, L4 650 HP, L5 750 HP, and then I ran out pf patience. Losing all that HP at L11 would really suck.
