A fourth rate ship of the line is commonly known as a frigate they are small convoy escorts with 30-50 cannons over two decks not for use in battle, very fast tho.
A third rate carries no less than 200 men and no more than 300 men, they typically are slightly larger than frigates and have 60-80 guns on two or three decks these are commonly used to defend ports or bombard fortifications, but are sometimes used in battle.
Second rates are larger and more powerful than third rates, but are cheaper than first rates, so most fleets have lots of second rates, they typically have 90 - 98 guns they typically have 2-3 gun decks and a crew of 750
First rates are usualy used as flagships, they have 100 or more guns on three to four decks and a crew of typically 750, they are the battleships of the era and they deal extreme damage and they can take a beating too.
You also then get the same but with steamships untill the pre Dreadnaught ironclads cobalT
Port used to be Larboard. It was in common use when 3rd rates ruled the seas. @cobalT
Read Wikipedia on Nelson & The battle of trafalgar, it's very interesting. @BogdanX
I beleive you mean Larboard if you were referring to this ship, @cobalT
Vice admiral Horatio Nelson 1st Viscount Nelson 1st Duke of Bronté would not have chosen Sutch a ship, this kind of boat wast the light cruiser of the day. He would have (and did) choose a 1st rate, because he was Vice Admiral. Anyway, considering you did not refer to him by his full title I imagine you aren't an expert in British history. @BogdanX
@WahrscheinlichIch
Looks great... I wonder if you could possibly make a version of this where the cannons roll out instead of being fixed.@AntiSphere

Hello everyone. Can someone please tell me why this plane doesn't work. Thanks...
@cobalT i know but it's easier to just put that instead of having people coming to me who don't know what port and starboard means
Amazing!
@EternalDarkness yeah rip
Woah, amazing. I can't play with it due to part count, but it looks amazing.
