Book: When Britain Burned the White House Peter Snow, 2013 https://www.amazon.com/When-Britain-Burned-White-House/dp/1250048281 Hadn’t done a book review for sometime and thought this is one might be useful for the New Ultimate-Age of Sail testing by @sterner. A Campaign mission around this incident would be interesting. The book tells of the 1814 invasion of Washington DC by British forces. Anybody from the UK will know John Snow the journalist very well indeed. He and his nephew have done some great battle re-works over the years. In this work John Snow giv

So I was having a jolly good fight with a Swedish fellow Canon Ball and the fight was drawing to a close, boarded him once perfectly fine, he disengaged so I started to board him again. Here was me thinking, right, this fight is in the bag, it's been a while since I killed an Ingermanland.

But no, I ended up being catapulted several hundred feet into the air hitting the water and then capsizing losing another expen

What's supposed to be the role of the Snow in PvP, if any?

Current system for gaining new ships is completely random in learning to build the specialty ships down the line, either by breaking them up or by building the base ship (i.e. break up a Privateer or build a Lynx or Trader Lynx for a chance to learn to build a Privateer). Having it purely luck based isn't very immersive: Trader Joe has built 100 Brigs but still can't build a Navy Brig, but Trader Jeff broke one up once and can build it just fine. Joe is frustrated (no gains from the huge amounts of resources) while Jeff is getting rich just from being lucky. So lets change it from a lo -

The Snow class snauwschip is a lightly armed trading ship (6 to 12 guns?) that largely was used in trade with the West-Indies by Dutch trading companies. Painting of ships from the Middelburgse Commercie Companie (Middelburg's Commercial Company), a southern branch of the VOC. Traded also a lot of the African population to South America and Caribbean in the 17th and 18th century. Ship on the far right is "Eenigheid" ("Unity") (close up picture). Though these look different from the plan and animation below. So not sure why the difference. company logo/brand: The plan below is that of the -
We plan to have to have 2 types of that ship 1) McKay drawings body (with spanker boom) - more sturdy, less agile and speedy 2) Original (without spanker boom) snow rigged - more agile, and built for speed can you please provide us with drawings or refs for the sailplan these 2 ships should have?
