Frigate

Frigate-class vessels pack the most firepower, sporting numerous cannons and strong below-deck broadside capability. The warship's strongest armor is near the front with a weakness in the rear.

All frigates have two main masts (larger versions have additional smaller fore and aft masts) and a raised mid-deck. This elevated forward area can function as a look-out platform or additional forward-facing gun mounts.

Frigates are the only class of ship that has forward-facing cannons, giving them an advantage when attacking while advancing on an enemy.

Light Frigate
These fast attack ships carry as many broadside guns as a standard sloop and as many deck guns as a standard galleon.



Standard Frigate
These gunships are a noticeable jump in price, before purchasing an warship - but the heavy armor, additional firepower and nearly double to cargo make them a desirable option.



War Frigate
These massive armored vessels are floating fortresses and the most deadly ships a pirate can possess; bristling with cannons on every deck. They also have widest firing angle of any vessel, though there are none that can shoot directly aft.

Only the slower War Galleon carries more broadside guns.
