Captain × module pairing

#CaptainRolePair with
1The CountHealing / sustainReported as more healing. Pair with long Overtime sits and Repair Crew.
2Racer RuthMobility (by name / pick flavor)Speed helps Overtime survival. Strong default when Empress isn’t in play.
3Norbert The NormalDefault / baselineOne creator called out “no arrow-related captains” here — safe with any kit.
4Patchy The PirateCannon damageReported: +100% your cannons, +100% enemy cannons. Mount side cannons / Front Cannon / mortar.
5TankbertHull / HP lineStills show HP growth on destroying vehicles, with a nitro regen hit. Pair with ram / vehicle-kill routes.
6Time WitchNamed on EN stillsNo cooldown kit confirmation in our sources — check tooltip before you buy.
7DuelistNamed on EN stillsNo verified melee/ram link yet. Ram family players: confirm in loadout.
8PyromaniacFire flavorPairs thematically with Fire Crew + Side Ballista. Kit text not dumped — confirm before spending silver.

Key pairings (worth memorizing)

  • Patchy The Pirate → cannons — Side cannons, Front Cannon, mortar family. Enemy cannons also hit harder. Details onBest modules.
  • The Count → sustain — Healing talk on tape. Helps long Overtime sits.
  • Tankbert → vehicle kills / HP — Grow HP bar when you destroy vehicles; nitro regen suffers. Plan mobility elsewhere.
Also in shop — art pending

Lumberjack and Huntress appear in the between-run shop; card crops are still low quality, so they are not featured in the main gallery or pairing table.

  • Lumberjack — Starter-flavored pick. Fine as a first captain while you learn slots — card art still rough.
  • Huntress — Named on EN stills. No verified arrow kit text yet. If you run turrets + arrows, try her — confirm tooltip in loadout.

Demo Dieter is out of scope for EA.

Still checking
  • No official S/A/B sheet — we will not invent ranks.
  • Full tooltip text for every captain — stills + sparse ASR only.
  • Whether PT-localized names are unique kits — unknown.
  • Cleaner Lumberjack / Huntress crops for main gallery — pending.
  • 0.9.9 patch string not confirmed on Steam news.
