Ability: Schooner. This ship gets +1 to her cannon rolls against targets without all their masts.

The Delight doesn't look very delightful, but she's a surprisingly effective ship.

This grungy-looking four-masted schooner was born for battle. Her cannons are okay, and as soon as you land a hit, you get +1 on all remaining shots against that target. Statistically, that means one or two of your shots will be 3-rank, and three or four will be 2-rank. Not bad for a 13-point ship. Better yet, you could send a cheap fighter in front of her to knock down the first mast of your intended victim, and then all her shots will be 2-rank. Captain and Helmsman are all the crew she needs. You could add more, like the OE Crimson Angel, if this is your main fighting ship, but she's effective enough that you might want to save your points for other ships.

The Delight isn't quite a throwback to the days of Crimson Coast and Revolution, when almost every ship was excellent, but she's a good ship.

By all means, give her a try.
