"Anunciada" means "announced." Does that mean someone stands in the bow of this ship and yells, "Hey, all you enemies, here we are"? Darned if I know. But she is an effective little gold ship.

She won't replace La Monarca, Spain's best small gold ship, but she'll do just fine if you don't own that marvel. She can serve as a support fighter, but with her speed, she'd be better chasing enemy gold runners than backing up a powerful but slow fiver-master. Her ability? Forget it; it's one of my Top Ten Most Useless Abilities. Seriously, I don't think the Jades have one crew ability that the Spanish don't already have, and Jade crew are hard to find anyway.

So the long and the short of it is that this is a speedy little gold ship for a small price. Everybody needs at least one ship like this in their fleet. Get this ship and use her.
