  1. Second picture reminds me a Cacafuego from Master & Commander, but a little smaller ;P If there wasn't a signature under the picture i could say it seems to be polacca (polacre) - single piece masts, square rigged and hull type somtehing beetwen Xebec and frigate. It would be great to see something like xebex/frigate El Gamo or classic xebec in game.
  2. Great idea. I participated in regatta like this IRL. That was 24h+ race on the lakes (with entering harbours to report arbiters) , on boats like these: That was test of sailing and navigation skils, and of course rowing (if wind was to light ) ;P As it was great fun IRL so the same should be in game. I support this idea ! Pls forgive language mistakes
  3. "While Wellesley was ordered as a Black Prince-class ship of the line, plans meant for her construction were lost in December 1812 when USS Constitution captured HMS Java. She was therefore built to the lines of HMS Cornwallis, a Vengeur-classship of the line which had just been launched at Bombay " Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Wellesley_(1815) Black Prince class plans. Vengeur class plans http://www.modelships.de/Wellesley/Photos-HMS-Wellesley.htm http://www.modelships.de/Wellesley/Photos-HMS-Wellesley_details.htm http://www.modelships.de/Wellesley/HMS-Wellesley_eng.htm Ship was destroyed in a German air-raid in 1940
  4. Tonnant-clas ship of the line captured by Royal Navy after one year of service in French Navy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Sans_Pareil_%281794%29
  5. "In 1856 she was converted to a hospital ship,[1] renamed Dreadnought and became the second floating Dreadnought Seamen's Hospital at Greenwich" - wikipedia HMS Caledonia as Dreadnought The first Dreadnought- 2nd rate, as hospital

    Ship Classes

    Polacca , polacre http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polacca
  8. Don't forget that progress in metalurgy brought lighter cannons that could shoot same balls.
  9. Santisima still would carry the heaviest broadside. I know that broadside isn't everything, but it is good indicator of how powerfull ship is
  10. IMO You should use one unit, it will help to avoid many mistakes. I propose to use pounds.
  11. This ship is comparable to Ocean Class. Ocean class may be even better. This is not behemoth with 32 pounders on all decks.
  12. Fight of the Romulus against HMS Boyne and HMS Caledonia
  13. Le Commerce de Marseille broadside is too heavy. 32 × 36pd + 34 × 24pd + 34 × 12pd + 18 × 8pd + 6 × 36pd = 2736pd 2736pd /2= 1368pd (36pd carronades included)
