 Destroyer - The Industrial
Age brings with it mechanized death on the waves. Destroyers launch heavier ranged
salvos than any Light Naval Units before them, bringing the game’s first “splash
damage” – damage to multiple units with a single round of fire. Destroyers
also serve the crucial function of anti-Submarine warfare. Battleships and Aircraft
Carriers depend on the lighter (and much less expensive) Destroyer to clear the
waters of undersea boats. To gain an early advantage in building Destroyers and
the Fireships that come after them, start stockpiling Metal and Timber before the
dawning of the Industrial Age. With industry come more expensive warships.

 Sloop -
Launched
first in the Enlightenment Age, the Sloop discharges the duties common to all Light
Naval Units – scouting enemy coastlines, interrupting trade routes, and, most
importantly, tracking and attacking enemy troop ships. The Sloop, like the Dromon
and Caravel before it, costs only Food and Wood to produce.
