When the French first came out in Crimson Coast, one of their strong points was their speed. This little scrapper was typical of the breed.

La Provence's ability says "fighter," and so do her cannons. Just add a Captain and you've got some extra firepower to support your Le Soleil Royal, or Le Superbe, or whichever 5-master you're leading the charge with. Her ability is a handy addition that can mess up your enemy's master plan. You could use her for gold instead, but that would be a waste -- the French have plenty of swift ships that have bigger cargo for the same or fewer points.

If La Provence had one or two L-range cannons, she'd be an excellent ship. As she is, she's quite good. She won't break the bank on points, and she'll punch some nasty holes in the enemy's masts.
