Condition: New

Contains 3 resin and metal ships. Assembly and painting required. Glue and paint are not included. In the game on the Black Sea, squadrons of gunboats are small ships. This means that it is very difficult to hit, but it is also vulnerable to large ship collisions, especially if the ship was moving at speed. It only carries one light cannon and is too small to be upgraded. Its relative evaporative nature means it is unwieldy in combat. Contains 3 resin and metal ships.

Gunboat fleets are like guts compared to large ships; nevertheless, they have a convenient location in the fleet. Gunboats will usually have a mast with a square sail mounted between one and three fixed guns. All naval fleets had gunboats on hand. They could be useful in shallower waters, and like single mounted cannons, they could be maneuvered with relative ease that larger ships could not. If this cannon were 32 pounds it could still prove dangerous to large ships. For example, a frigate could easily destroy a single gunboat with a single broadside hit. However, if deployed in large numbers, frigates will struggle to deal with all the gunships before sustaining heavy damage themselves. Due to their very low cost and relative time consumption, these gunboats can prove a great advantage. U.S. Navy policy between 1803 and 1812 was critical to Napoleon's concept for a planned invasion of England in 1804, while it focused its navy around the concept - this was in the War of 1812. It was to prove ineffective against the British blockade. In the game on the Black Sea, a fleet of gunboats are small ships. This means they are very difficult to hit, but vulnerable to collisions from larger ships, especially if that ship was moving at speed. Their relative evasiveness, however, means they are difficult to deal with in battle - too small to mount cannons and allow for upgrades. Contains 3 resin and metal ships.
