Cadet-Captain Mike

Name: Arrogant (France)

Card: FS #011 (Rare)

Points: 5

Masts: 1

Cargo: 2

Moves: S+S

Guns : 2S

Hit %: 67 (S), 0 (L)

Ability: Two hits from the same shoot action are required to eliminate one of this ship’s masts.

 

France got two five-point ships in the Fire & Steel release. We looked at the first one, the gold-ship Jeux, yesterday. Today, we have a great rarity, a one-masted ship that's best used as a fighter.

 

Her ability gives the Arrogant the staying power that most one-masters lack. She has one good cannon and decent speed, along with room for two crew, which is about all you can put on a five-point ship. I'd go for just a Captain, since even with the double-tough mast, she won't last too long once the shooting starts, so I wouldn't invest too much on her.

 

You could use the Arrogant as a cheap gold ship, but with only two cargo, she can't do too much in that department. Hunting gold ships is out, too; the prey can turn and ram her, and take her mast down too easily. No, give her a fighting crew and use her to finish off cripples, or to land the first hit on ships like HMS Dauntless so your gunship can make every hit count. Not many tiny, cheap ships can fill that role.

 

Goldship rating: 2.7 / 5

Gun Ship rating: 2.2 / 5

Boarding rating: 1.7 / 5

Value for points: 3.4 / 5
