A howitzer and cannon hybrid, the unicorn is operated by skilled artillerymen who, although expertly trained in the firing of cannons, lack skills required for effective defence in melee. However, the power and versatility of the unicorn guns on the battlefield more than make up for this weakness.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 106 Gun Ships of the Line:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> A 106-gun ship-of-the-line has an impressive array of guns and is intended to be the centrepiece of a fleet. While these warships are among the most powerful vessels afloat, they are lubberly sailors, being both slow and unresponsive. This is not a serious shortcoming because, armed with 106 cannons firing 32-, 24-, and 18-pounder balls on their three decks, they deliver a terrible and destructive broadside. They actually have more artillery than most land armies! Their cost, however, is a drawback and few navies can afford to build or maintain more than a handful of them.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> Historically, 106-gun ships-of-the-line were never common, and hardly ever sent to overseas stations. They were pure battleships, existing only to fight in set-piece actions, and not for mundane duties such as protecting merchantmen, policing the seas and hunting down privateers. They were commissioned and richly decorated as a physical representation of the glory of the state, but this practice went into decline as warfare became more intense, forcing ships to become more functional.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 80 Gun Ships-of-the-Line:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> This is a heavily-armed vessel, with a destructive close range broadside and a very strong hull to withstand return fire. These large two-decker ships-of-the-line can hold more and heavier guns than most two-deck vessels. They carry 32- and 24-pounders. These powerful cannon do not have the fast reloading times of lighter pieces, but make up for that with weight of shot. It is most advantageous for a captain to hold his fire until close to the enemy, in order to do the maximum possible damage.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> Historically, the “new pattern” 80-gun ship with two decks was considered a success. The previous three-deck 80s had been somewhat unwieldy in action. In 1758, the French 80-gun Foudroyant fought an action against HMS Monmouth (66 guns, third rate) off Cartagena in Spain. The fight lasted for over four hours, and only came to an end when HMS Swiftsure (70 guns, third rate) joined the battle. Foudroyant was captured. Once brought back to England, Foudroyant was refitted and repaired. In a further upset for the French, in 1782 HMS Foudroyant captured another French ship, the Pégase, earning her then-captain, John Jervis, a knighthood for the feat.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 74 Gun Ships-of-the-Line:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The 74-gun ship is an excellent blend of firepower and handling. It is a stable gun platform and has more guns than many armies! The 74 is a supremely practical naval weapon and regarded as the best balance between defensive strength and manoeuvrability. A two-deck design, it is strong enough to mount very heavy 32-pounder cannons on its lower gun deck. These, when combined with the upper deck’s 18-pounders, give it a devastating broadside, although this is best delivered at close quarters.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The French developed the 74-gun ship concept in the mid-18th Century. The design was so good that other navies lost no time in copying it for themselves or taking French ships in action. Many French vessels were made from green timber that “worked” in heavy seas and therefore leaked; the French accepted this because they believed the green timber made the ships resilient. British 74s were well built too, although there was a regrettable tendency to save money by recycling timbers, along with their woodworm and rot, from older vessels!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The last 74, HMS Implacable, was finally scuttled in 1949! Built in 1800 by the French, and then captured by the British at Trafalgar in 1805, she stayed in active service until 1842. She ended her days as a coal hulk.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 64 Gun Ships-of-the-Line:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The 64-gun ship-of-the-line can hold its own in battle, but is cheaper to build and run than heavier ships. The 64-gun ship may lack some of the firepower of the other ships-of-the-line, but it still has a respectable broadside, and can be constructed at a lower cost. It can be regarded as a stepping stone between 50- and 74-gun ships, with more broadside weight than the first yet with a faster reloading time than the second thanks to its lighter cannons. Opinions differ as to whether this is a happy compromise.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The Royal Navy classed a 64-gun ship as a “third rate” ship, normally a classification reserved for 74-gun ships. Although small, the 64 was not without supporters: Captain Horatio Nelson’s favourite ship was HMS Agamemnon, a 64 built at Bucklers Hard in the New Forest. His crew, often called Agamemnons, loyally followed Nelson to his subsequent ships and successes. The Agamemnon itself was used by the Royal Navy during the American and French Revolutionary Wars, the Napoleonic War and was at the Battle of Trafalgar. After nearly 30 years of hard service it ran aground off South America, but the entire crew survived the wreck. The "Eggs and Bacon", as the crew called it, looked after its men to the last.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 50 Gun Ships-of-the-Line:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> This is the smallest vessel styled a “ship-of-the-line” of battle, carrying some 50 long guns. Ships-of-the-line are the mainstay of fighting fleets; they are strong and stable gun platforms for battering enemy fleets to pieces. A 50-gun ship-of-the-line is a square-rigged, two-deck vessel, carrying two calibres of cannon: 24- and 18-pounders, with the heavier guns mounted on the lower deck. Though cheap compared to other two-deck warships, their broadside is still effective at close range, and best employed against frigates and smaller craft. A 50-gun ship should not be expected to last long in combat against larger battleships.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> By the 1750s it was obvious that 50-gun ships lacked the hull strength and firepower to stand in the line of battle against larger vessels. Because of their size, there was a new production of British 50-gun ships to serve in shallow coastal waters during the American Revolution but, apart from this, their usefulness in battle was largely over. Various national admiralties removed these small battle ships from active service, or sent them to minor overseas stations where they were unlikely to encounter powerful enemies. Some survived as converted troop transports.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 38 Gun Frigate:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> This single-deck vessel carries 18-pounder cannons, giving it a substantial broadside for such a manoeuvrable ship. This frigate is the largest design of the type, and the relatively heavy 18-pounders it carries balance both firepower and reasonable accuracy. Against another frigate, the 38 is a dangerous opponent, but in close combat against a ship-of-the-line it is outmatched: like all frigates, it has been built for speed, not hull strength. In battle against a powerful enemy the best strategy is to keep out of range, and choose when and where to engage, taking advantage of the fact that the crew can reload the 18-pounders relatively quickly.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> Historically, frigates were usually involved in single-ship actions, against other frigates rather than set-piece fleet battles involving ships-of-the-line. In fact, it was seen as ungentlemanly for a ship-of-the-line to fire upon a frigate, unless the frigate fired first. In such a case, the frigate captain had shown that he was ready for a fight that he was unlikely to win. This was not the only quirky rule of naval combat in the period. It was common to “clear for action” and put the captain’s furniture in a ship’s boat that was towed during any fight. It was considered very unsporting for an enemy to shoot at a captain’s private property!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> 32 Gun Frigate:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> A 32-gun frigate is a single deck warship, mostly used for convoy raiding and protection. This square-rigged ship is armed with 12-pounders on the only gun deck. The cannons it carries do not have the same punch as the guns found on larger ships, but they are more than capable of damaging smaller ships. The speed and handling characteristics of a 32-gun frigate allow it to choose when and where to engage a slower enemy. Whereas most ships must blast away at close range, this frigate can pepper an enemy at a distance.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> The first 32-gun frigates were introduced in 1756 and classed as “fifth rates” by the Royal Navy. The Southampton-class of frigates were British built and had more headroom on the lower deck than the French frigate models. British frigates had been derived from the French designs: the British were impressed with the French design, and copied captured examples for their own fleet. Although not usually commanded by a full captain, a frigate was a desirable ship for an ambitious officer as it gave him a taste of independent command.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px;">

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> A frigate is a fast and maneuverable single-deck vessel, used for reconnaissance and missions in distant waters. This 24-gun ship is not a ship-of-the-line, and would not last long in combat against such an opponent. Rather than heavy firepower, it is built for speed and easy handling; the guns on board are much lighter than those used by even the smallest battle ship. A frigate is not suited to close combat, its hull and masts would not survive a heavy enemy broadside. Instead, their advantage lies in the long range qualities of their relatively accurate 9-pounder guns, and their maneuverability against lumbering ships. They can, quite simply, outmaneuver larger opponents, and choose to run if the odds are against them.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:3px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;min-height:14px;">

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> Carronade frigates are single-deck vessels, with extremely impressive short-range firepower. Normally frigates would be armed with long guns, probably no larger than 12-pounders. A few short-barrelled 64-pounder carronades might be aboard to give a close-in broadside more weight of shot. A carronade frigate goes one better, and carries nothing but carronades – short guns that are half the weight of the equivalent conventional cannon. While the weight of a broadside is truly awesome, the frigate has to get in close in order to blow an enemy to smithereens thanks to the carronades’ limited range.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> A brig is a lightly-armed, two-masted sailing ship, with exceptional handling and sailing qualities. In the hands of a good master, a brig is a handy little ship, and can almost turn in its own length. The square-rigged sails allow precise control. A good helmsman can swiftly bob in and out of range of larger, deadlier ships whose cannons could demolish the brig’s weak hull. This manoeuvrability makes up for the light armament, which consists of only 6-pounder cannons, which have little real firepower in naval terms.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:7px;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Helvetica;"> A sloop-of-war is a very manoeuvrable sailing vessel, with enough firepower to sting larger opponents at the very least. Speed is the sloop’s weapon: a ketch-rigged sloop is capable of sailing very close to the wind, far closer indeed than many larger ships. This ability allows it to stay out of trouble, most of the time, if under a competent master. This is fortunate, as a sloop does not have the weight of shot, being armed with relatively light six-pounder cannon; or structural strength to last very long against a real battleship.
