I just think that a War Sloop (IF Explosives require you to be close) would lose its purpose that way considering how they're primarily meant to be evasive (not open targets).

I'm not necessarily looking for the longest range, just a sufficient one.
Oh, well in that case, I think people - myself especially - would be able to managed the required close range firing. In the first place, the War Sloop does kind of have the lowest Broadside Range of the Warships (not that I really pay attention to the broadside ranges). The Cerberus's Explosives will make it invincible to a certain extent, because it'll be able to sink ships fairly quickly before sufficient damage is received.
