Lucas Corso Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I found references on the French and English wikipedias to a La Zenobie (launched 29 July 1847 at Toulon) – fitted as steam frigate 1857 – deleted 7 August 1868 .http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fr%C3%A9gate_de_24 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_French_sail_frigates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surcouf Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The Zenobia is same plans to the Poursuivant frigate. This is the frigate of 2nd rank of 52-gun 1st rank = 60-gun 30-pdr2nd rank = 52-gun 24-pdr Coming from the Commission de Paris (1824). It is start of construction in 1828 at Toulon, and it is launched only in 1847. It is a square stern frigate. The shape of the hull is a little different than requested by the Commission de Paris. The plans, above, come from the Atlas de la Marine. Data:Lenght from rabbet to rabbet = 52.500mmBreadth = 13.400mDepth = 7.050mMaine-deck= 28-gun long-pattern 24-pdrQuarterdeck & forecastle = 24 carronades 22-pdr + 2-gun short-pattern 18-pdr Unfortunately I have nothing about its history, but maybe someone can help us? This frigate has perhaps done nothing in his life ... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirones Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 1844 and 1847 is way to late sadly even if they where laid down just shortly after the end of the 1820 +-5 timeline end. there is another french heavy frigate that still fits into timeline but only still. i think it was the class that brough napoleon back to france after he died. something around 1824-1826 it was.

Surcouf Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 You must mention the frigate Belle-Poule. it is this that has brought the frigate stripped of Napoleon in France. It is not in the period of the game. Frigate to 1st rank 60-guns 30-pdr 1827-1861 (launched in 1834) Mr. Boucher (type plan Paris de Commission 1824) At Cherbourg 30-gun 30-pdr 28 carronades 30-pdr 2-gun 18-pdr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagann Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The hard limit is 1830, so it should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirones Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 1820 +-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagann Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 1830 1600-1830 hard limit 1690-1790 preferred http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/2498-player-selected-ship-2015-suggestions/?p=51018 Current alpha ship line up is from the late period 1750-1830ish. http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/558-questions-to-developers/?p=1160 Glorious Age of Sail sums it up very nicely. The only problem it is a different period for everyone.What we know is where we end. Just before times of heavy standardization and appearance of iron sides and engines - around 1830Where we start we don't know exactly. http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/524-historical-range-time-period/?p=47267 Or it could be 1830+/-5 But i guess nothing is set in stone.
