Produced by 'Mignone' Stripped Indiaman (recipe)
Information based on version 1.15.45.0

A stripped-down Mignone. It has no deck guns, but it is much cheaper to build.

History

Trade between the East Indies (i.e. India, Ceylon, all the way to the Far East) and Europe demanded ships that were able sail long distances, carry large cargoes to maximize profitability and enough cannons to defend themselves from attack by pirates. The 'Mignone' East Indiaman is a classic example of such a ship. Broad of beam and with a deep draft this vessel can carry a huge cargo. Frigate rigged she is an efficient sailer though not outstanding. However she is armed like a frigate so she is a formidable foe when challenged by a lone pirate. This ship was modelled by "Spankybus" Mignone.

Strategy and Use

This variant of the 'Mignone' has no cannons, only swivel guns, making it only fit for transporting goods through safe waters.

Tactics

Equip this ship with speed outfittings to avoid capture by enemy NPC ships. Never take this ship through contested waters when loaded with cargo.

Variants
