Ability: This ship may dock at an enemy home island and load one treasure. If able, she must leave on your next turn.

 

HMS Bath is named for the town in Somerset, England, not for the act of taking a bath. At least I hope that's the case. The ship itself is a mix of good, bad, and indifferent.

 

The good is the cargo and the ability. The bad is the cannons and the mast count. The indifferent is the speed and the point cost. With a Helmsman on board, she can be a pretty good gold ship (although England has better ones). To use her ability, she needs the same help that most other home-island robbers need -- a Helmsman and a fighting ship to guard her. England has better home-island robbers, too.

 

Still, the threat of a HI-robber will throw most admirals' plans into disarray, so even if you don't go through with it, it's fun to make threats. Then grab some gold and go home, and hope you found high-value coins that will pay back this ship's cost. If you can't take any of England's good-quality gold ships or robbers, you won't go too far wrong by taking a Bath.

 

Goldship rating: 3.7 / 5
