Q: Best ship in game?

[Lightning]

Anyone know if that Junk Ship is the best ship in game since it costs the most, or is there another harbor with a better ship?

[kampfturke]

there are no other ships. The Junk is the best for gun power. The others are smaller and more nimble.
(apart from a secret ship that sucks)

Oh ok thanks, didn't know if there were other ports with better ships so I'm guessing the Junk might be the best in game or can you buy them all total without having to return your primary ship

[kampfturke]

well you can buy them, check them out and then reload.
The junk is the best for gun combat as it has the most cannons. The others are faster in combat.
I believe ship speeds are all the same on the main map.

Yeah from the icons the Junk ship looks alot smaller than that Galleon one and yet it has more guns which is odd lol

the ships are badly designed.
I think a lot of it was rushed.

Probably, but still decent job on the ships though

im pretty sure it was an extra backer goal so not rushed, just a bonus

There is no best ship in the game. They are equally worthless, because ship combat is inferior in every way to simply mashing W and boarding the enemy.

I guess that's true too would have been nice to have a visual for it as well even the option to have a turn based visual I'd take it over text

I comes down to what you want from your ship. If you like the text mini game and all you want to do is cannon them down then a junk with 5 double bronze will sink all but a galleon in 2 runs. If you hate the text game then your ship does not matter as youll just ram them.

very true.
Either go big with cannons and sink them, or just rush them.
The rush one is a lot cheaper and "quicker".

Ok, once I got the Junk Ship its stupidly Op, like 1-2 turns you basically sink the other ship lol

Junk or the base ship.. the Jibe in 1 turn is fantastic and make it possible to really use your firepower even if you only have 2 guns a side.

Yeah I'm really loving the Junk even though it takes 3 turns to Jibe you can do up to like 60+ dmg in one turn though

much more on a good broadside 5 double bronzers can do about 100 dmg.. Personally i prefer the base ship in many ways tho.. The galleon is a bad investment as the extra hits and lower firepower just results in you sustaining more damage on your pretty and durable hull.. But it really does nothing for you. Dhow is just worse than the base ship 1 extra cannon does not make up for the faster Jibe.
