Ship Upgrades
Permanent modules bolt into a ship’s upgrade slots to tune it for a role. Most come in grades — the same upgrade, stronger the rarer it is — shown here by colour. Source-named upgrades (admiralty, events, raider drops) and ship-knowledge books are included; the retired port-bonus variants are not.
Grade: BasicMasterNavyElite — values are the in-game modifiers; a blank cell means the upgrade does not touch that stat.
