Enemies will not fire back, and you will be able to sink or at least slow them down before they do any harm to quest ship. Trick in doing escorts is to attack NPC ships, intercepting your escortee, before they start firing at it. It can win against one small military or corsair ship, though barely.įlagship also can perform early attack or escort missions. It also has no upkeep cost, so can be a good ship for no cost.Įarly in game it is a quite adequate military ship. This ship also has the added advantage of having two up upgrade sockets. You either start with this ship (selected in continuous mode options) or you buy it from Lord Northbough when you house citizens.
The flagship is a useful all round ship, with a reasonable speed, good cargo capacity, and deals sufficient damage whilst having enough hitpoints not to be destroyed in your first corsair fight.
