Concrete frigates?
(For all you foreigners, British shore bases are named, HMS xxx, just like the ships, and are thus given the above title by the matelots.)

Ironclads?

The height of cantr decadence, as it's a wooden ship covered in iron. And they're not small either

Edit: spelling error.

I agree fully... soarer, darter... that just daft... and it means nothing to most players...

We don't give land vehicles daft non descriptive names after all...

Why couldnt the steel ship be a tanker it would be made entirely of steel something Like 20000g of steel or more it could carry twice as much as the Gallion and its speed be at abought 35.

Steel Ships should not be implemented until advanced metallurgy appears with big furnaces, cranes, welding etc.
We cannot build ironclad forging little pieces ot steel :lol:
