Oh, the subtlety! A ship meant for ramming, named the Ram! I can't stand it.

 

The HMS Ram isn't a bad ship at all. With a Captain, she shoots okay; with a Helmsman, she could run some gold on a budget; and if she rams, she kills a crew aside from any other damage she does from the ram and board. Her only drawback is her small size; with two masts, she's not likely to win (or survive) many boarding actions unless she limits herself to other small ships. Her appearance, like a giant Union Jack, will either appeal to you or turn you off; I kind of like it.

 

I'll give HMS Ram slightly above-average marks for value because she costs only six points. You can use her in any role, and while she won't be spectacular, she'll do okay wherever you send her.

 

Goldship rating: 2.4 / 5

Gun Ship rating: 2.7 / 5

Boarding rating: 2.2 / 5

Value for points: 3.2 / 5
