Haratik Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) It's amazing what a little digging can do on Pinterest. Granted, there wasn't all that much to find within the timeline, but I have found (and shared) some items. That being said, I did find a plan of a Russian first rate that was built for service in the Baltic Fleet. She saw action against the Swedes at both The Battle of Kronstadt and The Battle of Vyborg Bay. 3decks link in the title below. Трёх Иерархов (Three Hierarchs) 1782 Additional images of the model here: Edited April 26, 2017 by Haratik 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenris Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Very nice I ve counted 80 guns......Am i correct? With that firepower she could easily make a stand against Pavel or Bucentaure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know how you counted 80 when on the plan you can count 104. Actually there are 106. Cant find them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the armament in in the link above, I'm also guessing that one of the Middle Deck ports wasn't normally filled, which brings us the to the nominal 100-gun rating despite 102 ports (not counting forecastle ports).

Dude ,don't how many guns was on that ship in real. I counted 106.

Mostly because your 51-port count piqued my interest and I wondered where that extra pair of guns on the broadside went. The armament of the ship is listed in the 3decks link in the first post.

There are 15 pairs of ports (30 total), but they only fill 14 of them, thirteen 18-pounders and one Edinorog per side, for a total of 28. That's how we can have your 51 ports, but only 50 nominal guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But because it was rated as a 100-gun instead of a 102-gun, that was why I got curious and looked in the first place. It's probably the foreward-most port that's normally empty, which isn't uncommon. It would interfere with the handling of the anchors, be cramped in the narrowing bow section, and effect weight and trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its called ''100gun rate ship of the line'' because russians didn't have ''1rate'', ''2rate'',etc. HMS Victory had 88gun broadcast but still was 1rate ship of the line. 50 minutes ago, Ned Low said: Russian 1st rate in Caribbean?

Victory had 100 guns, not counting the forecastle ports. LD 30 x 32-pdrs, MD 28 x 24-pdrs, UD 30 x 12-pdrs, QD 10 x 12-pdrs, FC 2 x 12-pdrs, with various amounts of carronades being installed at different times (they didn't count as part of ratings at the time). She was reduced to a 98-gun 2nd rate for a while before being rerated as a 104-gun 1st rate. For Trekh Ierarkhov here, it's LD 26 x 36-pdrs + 2 x Edinorog , MD 26 x 18-pdrs + 2 x Edinorog, UD 30 x 8-pdrs, QM/FC 10 x 6-pdrs + 6 x 24-pdr carronades. Technically only 96 guns, plus the carronades. That's 102 with the carronades included, with a pair on the forecastle (port wasn't counted, but you can see the gap for it) and the one pair of middle deck ports empty. I was never disagreeing with you or nitpicking, I was mostly curious because it was so close, 102 versus 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BungeeLemming Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 every nation ignored a few guns here and there. British didnt count carronades and their 38 - frigates in reality had mode like 40-50 guns. Victory is also a 100 gun ship - altho carrying 104 guns. Santisima Trinidad. I am not sure about this particular vessel but the spanish did build 1st rates at Havana. There is a very high chance the Santisima was at least build in the caribbean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that many specifics about Russian ships, outside of my copy of "Russian Warships in the Age of Sail, 1696-1860" by Tredea and Sozaev, and coverage in books like Gardnier's "Warships of the Napoleonic Wars".

Alex Connor Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 This ship is based on HMS Victory, Russia brought plans and built 9 half-sisterships to Victory (Chesma/Чесьма-class) for the Baltic fleet. Could easily be adapted from the Victory model ingame, the differences are mostly decorations and small details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
