Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Submarine command

It is well known that the Volksgard excels in ground battle at the cost of naval power. Due to their mountains having only one, if large, surface river with a network of underground rivers and water tunnels, providing a major natural obstacle to any sort of surface navy. As the result, the Dwarves navy was seriously under equipped. But as a sea force was determined to be necessary in the event they expand outwards, the main problem was that the ship was required to be small and dive underneath water tunnels. As submarines trade off increased construction costs for extra protection from air attack and long range detection, the Dwarves chose to focus of submarine warfare, at the cost of having no battleships.

How they are summoned is by having the commander requesting the Volksgard to send some naval support. Upon which a submarine will emerge from a shore closest to the base.
