Explosive

A special cannon round that causes a great explosion on the deck or against the hull of the vessel it strikes.

Explosive rounds are very heavy and can only fire short range. Also, it takes a much longer time to load them, countering for the great damage they can inflict. Also, the number of explosive rounds a pirate can carry is restricted.

A pirate can learn the skill to use these rounds at Cannon Skill Level 20. Increasing the Explosive skill increases the overall damage even more.

They can be purchased at any gunsmith once the skill has been learned.
