HMS Commodore (sinkable)

Designed and built due to public pressure, the ‘Commodore’ was an experimental vessel and way ahead of her time in many features, from fully enclosed armoured turrets to electric lighting! Unfortunately, being so advanced may have led to some design flaws…

Specifications
16.4 knot top speed
Roughly 240km range at top speed (range decreases at lower speeds)
Length – 56.25m
Width – 9.25m
Depth – 4m
Capacity for 31 crew

Armament
4 Artillery cannon mounted in 2 weather deck turrets
2 Battle cannons mounted on hurricane deck fore and aft
Functional ram bow
Numerous small arms


Features
Simple yet detailed interior
Simulated horizontal trunk engine
Fully stocked equipment rooms
2 electric life-boats
4 scripted sink modes
Working anchors
GPS autopilot
GPS Map


To start
Head into the ship and take any ladder down
On the very bottom deck of the ship, head forward to the boiler room
Turn the key on each boiler to light it
Once steam pressure has risen, you're good to go


To sink
Head to the captain’s cabin at the rear of the ship
Sit at the desk and you’ll see the keypad on it
Choose a sink mode
1
This causes a magazine detonation and a slow sink by the bow
2
This causes a much faster sink by capsizing the ship (historically accurate)
3
Similar to method 1 but also requires winds to be turned up
4
Similar to method 2 but also requires wind to be turned up (extra realistic)



Notes
The weather deck can get wet in rough weather, make sure you batten the hatches...

Inspired by HMS Captain (1870)
