[Ship] Measures to ameliorate my disastrous in-game financial status, part-1

[Bodi]

As said in the title, something has to be done about my accounts, after having realized that I own only 7 dbs.

Luckily, there are 3 ships readily available, I built them many months ago, now it's time to put them into good use. I hope they'll sail safely and swiftly and earn me a bunch of doubloons this turn.

Here's one of them: Le Noix

Class:4

Cost:300

Range: 4

Maneuvre: 2

Firepower: 2

Crew: 3

Cargo: 5

Hull: 2

Total: 18

Cool! I've often wondered what a reddish brown upper hull would look like on the older brown hull bases, and I see it looks good!

[Thomas Waagenaar]

Out of all 3 designs this one is definitely my favourite!

 

It really does look like a cute little Fluyt and really makes me want to design one too!

A fine Fluyt. Good construction of the hull and homemade sails. I particularly like the colored decorations.

[Mesabi]

Neat build Bodi! I like the blend of classic pirates, and the accurate shaping of the vessel. The plates as accents work great too. 

As for your bank account.... won't licensing more ships just put you deeper in the red? And cost more to run? And bankrupt you further?

Nice galleon !

I like that bow with the castle. The colored stripes are a nice touch too.

Thank you evan, these narrow hulls work quite well for small ships, glad you like my boat.

Thanks mate, so it's a Fluyt, I thought it was a galleon.

That's true for the moment I have to borrow from other OL members to licence them, but they should bring profit in the long run, as long as they still afloat.

Thanks Thaum, the forecastle was the trickiest part to build, as I had to achieve a transition between that blocky structure and the pointed bow, and I'm happy that it turned out not so bad.
