This week, it's France's turn for some reviews. We'll lead off with Le Enfant Terrible, which is not terrible at all.

 

This ship has a lot in common with one of my favorite Frenchmen, Le Courageux; she's small and inexpensive, but has enough speed and cargo for gold, and also has the cannons of a good support fighter, plus a useful defensive ability. That's a roundabout way of saying "this ship is good for gold, or fighting, or both." I love versatility in a ship, especially in a ship whose point cost won't break the bank. You can buy a Captain for her, but leave him on your home island while the Enfant makes a gold run, then load him up and head out again, either for battle or for more gold, whichever seems best.

 

By way of comparison, Le Courageux has a bit more speed and more cargo, but costs a point more and lacks the Galley keyword, which this ship will usually use for its built-in Oarsman ability. If I were collecting the French, I would definitely want this ship, and I would use her alongside Le Courageux as a one-two punch, combining fighter and gold ship. Those two, plus a big fighter, will make any Francophobe think twice about getting hostile.

 

Goldship rating: 3.9 / 5
