Agamemnon
'Agamemnon' Bark
A Level 25, 34-gun Large Warship
Historical rating: 26-gun Sixth Rate
You must be a Cutthroat or a Buccaneer
SAILING Sailing
These parameters determine how your ship sails.
Max Speed: Maximum Speed
How fast your ship can move in battles. Improving battle speed does not improve Open Sea speed.

Acceleration: Acceleration
Determines how fast the ship gains speed.

Deceleration: Deceleration
Determines how fast the ship loses speed. Lower values are better if you want to maintain speed, higher values are better if you want to stop quickly.

Turning (Fast): Fast Turn Rate
The Ship's turn rate in degrees per second. This is how fast the ship turns if it is moving at maximum speed.

Turning (Slow): Slow Turn Rate
The Ship's turn rate in degrees per second. This is how fast the ship turns if it is moving at a speed of at least 4 knots.

Turning Accel: Max Turning Acceleration
This shows how fast a ship accelerates into a turn. The higher the value, the faster the ship reaches its maximum turn rate.

Turning Decel: Min Turning Deceleration
Ships gradually suffer less deceleration as they turn. This shows a minimum amount of deceleration a ship has when turning. Lower numbers (relative to other acceleration stats) are better.

Best Point: Best Point
The wind angle at which the ship can attain its maximum speed. The wind comes from angle 0o, and angle 180o is running with the wind at your back.
SHIP
Capacity: Capacity
How many units of cargo the ship can hold.

O.S. Visibility: Open Sea Visibility
How far away other ships will spot you on the open sea.

O.S. Spotting: Open Sea Spotting
Increases your spotting range, allowing you to detect ships beyond their O.S. Visibility.

Crew: Crew
The maximum number of crew on your ship. Shows the fighting strength of your crew.

Target Tracking: Target Tracking
Reduces the accuracy penalties you suffer due to your movement and your target's movement. Improves your chance to hit fast moving ships.

LEVEL (SIZE): Level and Size
The level required to use this ship, and the size of the hull.

DURABILITY: Durability
The number of ships you have left. Decreases by 1 whenever the ship is defeated in combat (with the exception of skirmish).

INSURANCE VALUE: Insurance Value
Amount of doubloons you will receive for this ship if she is sunk or scuttled.
HEALTH Health
The ship's Health stats show how much damage it can sustain.
Hull: Hull (Structure)
The internal structure of your ship. When your structure runs out, your ship sinks.

Port: Port (Left)
The ship's port armor. Armor facings protect the ship's hull.

Stbd: Starboard (Right)
The ship's starboard armor. Armor facings protect the ship's hull.

Bow: Bow (Front)
The ship's bow armor. Armor facings protect the ship's hull.

Stern: Stern (Rear)
The ship's stern armor. Armor facings protect the ship's hull.

Sails: Sails & Masts
Shows how much damage the ship's sails and masts can sustain. Ships lose speed as they take sail damage.

The ship's Integrity stats show how much damage it can sustain.

BATTERIES Batteries
The guns on your ship are divided into batteries. Guns within a single battery are identical and are controlled as a group.
Type Quantity & Weight
This shows number and size of the guns in the battery. Heavier guns do more damage, have longer range and penetrate armor better. Lighter guns reload faster and are better at dealing sustained damage against unarmored targets.
Reload Reload
The time it takes to reload the entire battery of guns, in seconds.
Damage Maximum Damage
This shows how much damage each cannon can do at minimum range using heavy round shot. Damage gradually decreases as your target gets farther away.
Range Maximum Range
This shows how far the cannons can fire heavy round shot. Other ammo types modify this range.
Acc Accuracy
This shows the cannon's percentage chance to hit a standard target at 200 or 400 yards away. The chance to hit is increased based on target size, and decreases based on movement.
200 / 400 Accuracy
This shows the cannon's percentage chance to hit a standard target at 200 or 400 yards away. The chance to hit is increased based on target size, and decreases based on movement.

WARNING

General

The Agamemnon is a merchant bark that has been refit and repurposed into a dangerous warship. It's not quick, but it has a nasty bite and has a great running speed.

Strategy and Use

The Agamemnon is a very affordable upgrade for cutthroat and buccaneer captains working their way through their mid-20's. It can be found travelling alone or in packs with the 'Corsair' Mastercraft Xebec or 'Mystique' Polacre all along the American continental coastline from St. Rose's Bay down to Port-of-Spain, with hotspots around the Mexico and New Granada areas.

It is a reliable levelling ship up until the early 30s when the 'Raa' Frigate and 'Stralsund' Mastercraft Frigate become available; while the level 27 'Stralsund' Frigate has somewhat heavier guns and better armor, it can be harder to capture and has a sizeably smaller cargo capacity.

Tactics

The Agamemnon is quite possibly the most heavily armed ship for its level, and it posesses a sturdy hull capable of absorbing a good amount of damage. It is also the first ship (for Pirate captains) to feature a top deck/gundeck battery distribution, on top of being equipped with both bow and stern chasers. It allows adventurous pirates to have an early taste of higher level vessels while also making a very efficient leveling boat on the cheap.

The fast guns, while not as heavy as those of the level 27 Stralsund, are able to make quicker work of low level NPCs. A captain's main job is to pick a target and keep their batteries trained on it long enough - while this might sound boring, it forces novices to experiment with pursuing multiple targets at the same time and to learn NPC behavior and positionning tactics that come in handy both in PvE and PvP later on.

The extensive cargo hold is both useful and profitable, particularly if one chooses to join a grinding group for faster levelling.

Distinguishing Characteristics

Early feature of extensive cargo hold, bow chasers, both deck and gundeck batteries. Comfortably maneuverable but not nimble. An early foretaste of the Abaddon's Will Refit Galleon.

Model

The ship was modeled by Xaphod using and is based on his Atlas Bark.
