Cadet-Captain Mike

Name: Muninn (Vikings)
Card: FN #006 (Common)
Points: 18
Masts: 3
Cargo: 3
Moves: S+S
Guns : 2L,3L,3L
Hit %: 333 (S), 333 (L)
Ability: Longship. After this ship resolves a shoot action, she may move as a free action.

The Muninn, named for one of the ravens that brought Odin the news of the world, shares the title of "Most Expensive Common Ship" with the Naegling and the USS Springfield. The Naegling is a killer but is slightly overpriced, the Springfield is okay but badly overpriced, and the Muninn is... well, let's see.

She's fair at gold, but not for 18 points, so forget that role. As a fighter, her cannons are quite good indeed, but she shares the weakness of all longships, the "reverse-Acorazado effect" (one hit on her removes two cannons). As a boarder, she's decent, with the longship's boarding bonus and the shoot/move ability. I'd give her a Captain, maybe a Helmsman, and use her as aggressively as I could.

The Muninn isn't quite as good as the Naegling, but she's far better than the Springfield. But it's hard to justify spending almost half of a standard 40-point build on a three-masted ship. If you're a Vikings fan, this ship can certainly fight, but she probably can't justify her high cost.

Goldship rating: 3.1 / 5
Gun Ship rating: 4.0 / 5
Boarding rating: 3.0 / 5
Value for points: 2.6 / 5
