As only three of the major factions got subs in MI, I made custom subs for the other three majors who did not get any:

Name: Poseidon
Cost: 14
Faction: English
Segments: 3
Cargo: 4
Movement: S+S
Cannons: 2L-3L-4L
Ability: Submarine. Once per turn, reroll any die roll made for this ship; you must use the second die roll result.
Flavor Text: Following successful experiments with submersible technology, the Royal Navy has developed a new class of ship that will further help them rule the waves.

Name: Resurgam
Cost: 13
Faction: English
Segments: 2
Cargo: 3
Movement: L
Cannons: 3L-3S
Ability: Submarine. Once per turn, one crew or ship within S of this ship cannot use its ability that turn.
Flavor Text: Resurgam was designed with the express purpose of disrupting the enemy’s line of battle undetected.
