Trireme

Description
A trireme "with three banks of oars" literally "three-rower" was an ancient vessel and a type of galley that was used by the ancient maritime civilizations of the Mediterranean Sea, especially the Phoenicians, ancient Greeks and Romans.

The trireme derives its name from its three rows of oars, manned with one man per oar. The early trireme was a development of the penteconter, an ancient warship with a single row of 25 oars on each side and of the bireme , a warship with two banks of oars, of Phoenician origin.

This fantasy Trireme is armed with a single frontally aimed catapult (500MM cannon) and two 60mm archers ^ ^ The archers are mostly to defend itself from light air attacks. To buff its firepower it is also armed with 9 medium missile launchers.

The ship is quite capable of moving with only its oars, however doing so makes it reaaaally slow, so I added a small 2 cylinder engine to boost its speed slightly yet making it feel somewhat realistic still. to hide the exhaust fumes I decided to add a kitchen to the ship because... just because! :D

The ship is not 100% finished so far, and will be updated before too long. But I felt like publishing it for there are not enough trireme's on the workshop in my opinion. Oh and when this ship takes damage it will have fire and smoke pop up in several locations.
