Best Vessel

[League]

A War Galleon is for the far-distanced crew, the kind that can just sit and fire at a ship in the distance from the side. In broadside range, any ship approaching won't likely damage you a tad. A War Frigate has the ability to do this slightly better with more cannoneers, and slightly worse with less, though it does give the option to pursue a large ship, or to do this tact coming at you headlong. The War Sloop is for the more engaging sailor, not the crew reliant.

Choose your pick. The Light Sloop is the only other possible thing for consideration, and I digress.
