The Huginn, named for one of Odin's ravens that
brought him the news of the world, may be one of the
Vikings' most effective longships.
Her cost is high, but we expect that of a longship,
and it's better than some. Her cannons are very
good, especially since each of them shoots twice.
Cargo and speed are adequate for a three-masted
fighter, and her ability (which happens when she
rams, since longships never get pinned) makes her a
dangerous rammer as well. She wants a Captain and a
Helmsman; save the third cargo space for a coin you
might win when you board after ramming.
The Huginn is one of the three best longships in the
Viking stable (the Naegling and Hlidskjalf are the
other two). She is a decent value, and a killer when
the cannonballs fly.
