Garbad’s Ship of the Week – ‘Prince’ First Rate Ship of the Line

This week, we revisit Garbad’s treatment of the ‘Prince’ First Rate Ship of the Line. This 100-gun lineship is the first ship of the line covered in the Ship of the Week column. It is a user-created ship modeled by Victariand and based upon a 17th century English First Rate ship of the line. The historical ship was 136 ft. long, 44 ft. wide, had a draught of 19 ft., an even 100 guns and was launched in 1670.

Few ships in PotBS get as much admiration as the Prince. In terms of sheer firepower, nothing can compare to it. As the largest, most expensive, and most powerful ships in the game, they are admired by all. People take notice when a Prince is in the battle (or even on the OS), and they are regularly the flagship of a wealthy nation or guild.
