 ===Xanthian Order===
-When the Xenon Empire chose to merge into The Xanthian Order, it contributed 90% to the total fleet capacity of the new empire. The second phase of ship construction started with new 24-gun, 34-gun, and 50-gun designs, and old designs being upgraded. It bought the salvage rights to the Shadow Atlas from the British Empire, and converted her to a 30-gun 6th rate based off British and French designs of the 1780s. The previous 80-gun flagship ''Voyager'' was rebuilt to hold 90-guns.
+When the Xenon Empire chose to merge into The Xanthian Order, it contributed 90% to the total fleet capacity of the new empire. The third phase of ship construction started with new 24-gun (''Cormoran''-class), 34-gun (''Pacific''-class), and 50-gun (''Neptune''-class (old)) designs, and old designs being upgraded. It bought the salvage rights to the Shadow Atlas from the British Empire, and converted her to a 30-gun 6th rate based off British and French designs of the 1780s. The previous 80-gun flagship ''Voyager'' was rebuilt to hold 90-guns.
 Upon the creation of the [[Commonwealth of Nations]], the successor to the [[League of Nations]], the Xanthian Navy agreed to loan 2 ships; a 24-gun 6th rate ''XNS Cormoran'', and the unfinished 50-gun 4th rate ''XNS Neptune'' to the cause. The ''Neptune'', missing masts was used as a floating battery and towed by the smaller ''Cormoran''. After a breakdown of diplomacy between the Commonwealth and Xanthian Order, it was chosen to move both ships back to [[Xenia]] for completion. However in the morning before the ships were due to depart, an accidental magazine explosion onboard ''Cormoran'' caused it to sink, damaging ''Neptune''. Now without a tow, it was chosen to scuttle Neptune as a blockship in the harbour to disrupt trade into the Freeport.
