Happy birthday to me! If I'd been thinking, I'd have arranged for a more interesting ship to review on this particular day. But this one will have to do.

This is an extremely average ship; look at the ratings and you'll notice they don't go far from the average rating of 3. Her cargo is average, her speed is average, her cannons are poor but become average against anything other than Pirates, and her point cost is average. Not that there's nothing wrong with that, but if you also own four-masted Pirates like the Darkhawk II, SM Sea Nymph, RV Neptune's Hoard, White Rose, or Golden Medusa, then there isn't much of a reason to use this one in battle. All of those ships are faster, nearly all have better cannons, and some have better cargo or a lower price tag as well.

If you really want to play with dragon's breath, get Angelica or Raptor Maw and try out a real dragon. This one will do an okay job for you, if you don't have anything better. That's about the best I can say about this (yawn) average ship. Now please excuse me; my birthday cake is waiting.
