I know that just about any ship of the line. A 74 for example would beat the constitution.
But theoretically the consitution was built to run from those ships. It was never meant to fight a real battle.
So with this in mind and considering how heavy it's pound for pound 44 gun shot is for a frigate.
Did the British or any other nation have anything comparable in the period?
I know the British captured a 40 gun french frigate that may have come close. But could it have outrun her?
Basically I am wondering if everybody will be running constitution class ships in the open game. Two of
these ships could be unbeatable by anything but a three decker.
Yes, it's called a 5th rate.
