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.
