HAH! I know, right?!?

There was a mechanic that the GoGames version had that I really did like, and that was with modernization. Using other ships to modernize in boost Firepower, Torpedo, AA and Armor depending on the ship you use, the other stats (such as Luck, ASW and the like) can improve by leveling up (although you are very much at the mercy of RNG), or by using like-ships. For example, if I used 3x Ikazuchis to modernize the Ikazuchi I'm keeping, the boosted one would get the standard bonuses to armor or whatever...but there would be a (very good) chance that stats like LOS, Luck and Evasion would also improve as well.

In short, there was some tangible benefit for using the same ship for modernization purposes.
