Third Rates are the ideal lineships for naval captains who do not want to sacrifice all of their maneuverability. For a lineship, the 'Wenden' has an excellent mix of maneuverability, firepower and defense.
The 'Wenden' is worth an investment for Naval Officers who are already experienced in lineships, which want the most firepower available at reasonable prices.
The 'Wenden' Third Rate is a Colossal Ship of the Line, featuring 84 cannons, in total.
Considering this ship has 8 Swivels, 2 Fore guns and 2 Aft guns; this leaves 72 (84-12) cannons on the broadsides. Meaning this ship has 36 cannons on each broadside.
The 'Wenden' Third Rate is able to deal 1476 damage with one broadside, in basic stats and using Round Shots, at 0 yards.
With the guns similar to a Second Rate, the 'Wenden' is a rightly feared adversary.
It's guns are a major improvement over almost every ship under Second Rate status. The 32lbers on the gundeck are excellent at long range pounding, and at shorter ranges are downright devastating. It is currently the only non-Juggernaut Ship that carries 32lbers.
The 18lbers on the upperdeck are a very reliable mixture combined with the excellent reload and Damage-Per-Second (DPS) potential of the 9lbers round out the fearsome armament of the 'Wenden'.
In terms of maneuverability, the 'Wenden' is a sluggish Third Rate. Even so, that some Second Rates accelerate faster.
This ship must be certified in your nation's Capital before you can sail it. Certifying it can be done with 30 Royal Commendations as a Naval Officer.
The production price of the 'Wenden' is about Doubloon(s) 2.700.000 Doubloons.
SAILING Sailing These parameters determine how your ship sails. Max Speed: Maximum Speed SHIPHow fast your ship can move in battles. Improving battle speed does not improve Open Sea speed. Acceleration: Acceleration Determines how fast the ship gains speed. Deceleration: Deceleration Determines how fast the ship loses speed. Lower values are better if you want to maintain speed, higher values are better if you want to stop quickly. Turning (Fast): Fast Turn Rate The Ship's turn rate in degrees per second. This is how fast the ship turns if it is moving at maximum speed. Turning (Slow): Slow Turn Rate The Ship's turn rate in degrees per second. This is how fast the ship turns if it is moving at a speed of at least 4 knots. Turning Accel: Max Turning Acceleration This shows how fast a ship accelerates into a turn. The higher the value, the faster the ship reaches its maximum turn rate. Turning Decel: Min Turning Deceleration Ships gradually suffer less deceleration as they turn. This shows a minimum amount of deceleration a ship has when turning. Lower numbers (relative to other acceleration stats) are better. Best Point: Best Point The wind angle at which the ship can attain its maximum speed. The wind comes from angle 0o, and angle 180o is running with the wind at your back. Capacity: Capacity How many units of cargo the ship can hold. O.S. Visibility: Open Sea Visibility How far away other ships will spot you on the open sea. O.S. Spotting: Open Sea Spotting Increases your spotting range, allowing you to detect ships beyond their O.S. Visibility. Crew: Crew The maximum number of crew on your ship. Shows the fighting strength of your crew. Target Tracking: Target Tracking Reduces the accuracy penalties you suffer due to your movement and your target's movement. Improves your chance to hit fast moving ships. |
