A modified Cruizer that has a stronger and more resilient hull.

History

Brigs are one of the most versatile vessels in naval history, employed as merchant vessels, privateer ships and armed naval vessels. All brigs have two masts, a fore mast and a main mast. Therefore they are not true ships, which have three masts, though they are primarily "ship rigged" meaning "square rigged." Snow brigs have the mizzen sail attached to a small mast behind the main mast. A standard brig (e.g. the 'Lexington' Brig) the mizzen sail is attached directly to the main mast. This ship may also be identified by its hull design, which is termed a pink or pinque due to its narrow or pinched stern. This vessel was modelled by player Hans.

Strategy and Use

This is a tough mid-teen warship for a Naval Officer. It has a strong battery compared with other snows but lacks bow or stern chasers.

Tactics

Stick to your best wind angles and avoid getting caught in irons. With a crew of 105 this ship is good for boarding actions against vessels of its level.
