SAILING Sailing These parameters determine how your ship sails. Max Speed: Maximum Speed SHIPHow 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. 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. |

Variants
Other variants of the Tigre:
Strategy and Use
The Tigre Mastercraft can be used in tandem with accuracy buffs as a very efficient kiter, or with sailing (turning & acceleration) and damage buffs as a devastating brawler.
Tactics
Range
The Tigre MC can be fitted for speed and accuracy as a dangerous medium range kiter. Its 16 pound batteries, supplemented with accuracy powders and optional accuracy fittings have little trouble hitting targets up to 400 yards away.
Close quarters
One can also fit the Tigre for close range combat, substituting the accuracy fittings for reload mods that will be of great help cutting down the down time on the heavy gundeck. The permanent hull modification slots should definitely be filled up with with armor fittings - like its Capricieux cousins, the Tigre has relatively low armor values and mediocre damage reduction.
Comparable Ships
- 'Hercules' Mastercraft Frigate - much more powerful but functionally very similar
