The 1751 ship named Santisima Trinidad was a 60 gun Manila Galleon, not to be confused with the mighty 1st rate Santisima Trinidad of 140 guns already in game. She was laid in Bagatao Island shipyard in 1751, and had a cargo capacity of 2,000 tones. On October 2, 1752, she was intercepted and captured by the British ships HMS Panther and HMS Argo. Her cargo valued at $1.5 million dollars, and the ship was valued $3 million. The ship was towed to Portsmouth, where both captains were rewarded 30,000 pounds. Specifications Tons burthen: 4,409 tons (2,000 tonnes) Length: 167 ft 6 in (51.05 m) (gundeck) Beam: 50 ft 6 in (15.39 m) Draught: 30 ft 6 in (9.30 m) Complement: 413 Manila Galleon Plans coming later...

Four masted ships Most four masted ships weren't built until the mid 19th century, but there were large galleons (often in the Spanish treasure fleets) with 4 masts during this time period, along with a few Vaisseaux (French Ship of the line style) made with four masts, In 1801 the first four masted Barque ships were made, not to mention a small number of Asian ships that had 4-5 masts that were made leading up to the first Opium war (not the Zheng He treasure ships). Will we be seeing any ships of these sorts? It would be quite interesting to see them as a bit of a rarity, considering until the 1830s-1850s four masted ships weren't common.

Hello , As i've said in my topic posted in "suggestions" forum : http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/6801-put-some-ships-from-16th-and-17th-centuries/ It would be nice to add some ships from 16th and 17th centuries, to enable players to play ships like galeons, which were famous ships from the beginning of the age of sail. That's why i present the following ship : Neptune , replica of a former spanish galeon . Info : Name: Il Galeone Neptune Builder: Port El Kantaoui, Tunisia Launched: 1986 Homeport: Genoa, Italy General characteristics Tonnage: 1500 tons Length: 65 m Beam: 16.40 m Draft: 2.2 m Propulsion: Full-rigged ship Speed: 5 knots (9.3 km/h; 5.8 mph) I have chosen this ship for it well represents the line of a galeon of the 17th century, even it's a replica. Here there a photo of the ship. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_(galleon)#/media/File:%D0%9F%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D1%8B_%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B1%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%D0%BC%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%8F-1.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_(galleon)#/media/File:%D0%9F%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%82%D1%8B_%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B1%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%D0%BC%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%8F-3.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_(galleon)#/media/File:Pirates,_Roman_Polanski,_boat_Genova.jpg It would be nice to add also a famous galeon of an explorer of the 16th century.

Hey guys what do you think about a spanish galleon like this one for example?
-
The ship in my mind is the ship i want the most for two reasons she started as a merchant ship "Wicked Wench" and was converted to "Black Pearl" and the other reason is that, i want it becuase of POTC but the ship is heavliy armed with 32 cannons and she can defend herself but i would like it to be a little expensive so younger players will not just join the game to play Jack sparrow and raid stuff just for fun. But its cool if she can be converted from a merchant to pirate and thats a feature that i want. This is maybe a childish topic but the ship is awesome and could be in my mind a great merchant ship for british nations.

This is very needed since they are needed and alos they are so pretty a pretty war galleon would look proper nice on the battlefield and the fluyt as an merchant vessel, i do not have any suggestions but i have made this so i can see a few or more of both that you guys are suggesting. Any vessel that is in the time period of the game.

Hello i have been trying to find some cool Ottoman ships but it seems alot harder then the famous hms victory and such. But i did find this cool one (on the front of the book, you can pay me later for the advertising ) These ships intrigue me because they have different designs (as uposed to the standard European brig, fore and aft, and sol sail standardization). This ship has good looks, oars, guns, four masts, and a ram!!! -
Please someone look into this i think it would be a kickass boat to have in this game.
