If the Nerf destroy's historical accuracy then it would destroy the game reason of existence, as long as the ship is historically accurate I don't much care. The ship is suppose to carry 6 howitzers too, which at the time period had early Carcass shot coming into development, so it could be worse. Personally I'd like the howitzers, the giggles of it would be nice plus they would make the ship a little slower and add another siege ship for PBs.
