A timer has appeared on my Shipmates on Tuesday ( 23rd July ). It showed 6 days 23 hours. This means I can play it everyday as usual unless it will not refresh on next Tuesday.
It is a great version if the timer has 7 days. It has many advantages compared to the Shipmates without timer version.
- Faster to get rewards at the last battle. Once you found your opponent while the timer is nearly run out, shoot your opponent's fleet immediately by the initial 3 shots. You might win the last battle instantly by more red hit after the timer run out.
- No need to repair the broken ships. All broken ships will be repaired automatically after finishing a battle. 3 GB repair fee or 24 hours waiting time is not applicable to this version.
- The players can continue providing cannonballs to you by passing new levels even though they are sunk by your opponent. This advantage is very critical, because you will not afraid your ace player is defeated at the beginning of battle and the battle will last very long time when you have only one ship left.
