Gunichi Mikawa

Also called: 三川军一 · Гунъити Микава · 미카와 군이치 · 三川軍一

Japan Cruiser Commander
JapanCruiserHistorical
Overview

Clandestine trait enables stealth-focused cruiser play on Japanese hulls. Pair with Ingenious for concealment or Burn It Down XXL for HE spam. Acoustic Chamber synergizes with torpedo armament. Build for aggressive positioning and area denial rather than sustained brawling.
