Carrack

A small 3 mast ship. No cannons. Good for transportation, exploration, or even fishing.

You MUST have the other 2 ships to get the full effect of this one.

You may think the design of this ship is weird. But, that is the standard Carrack design.

(This is a modified version of what Christopher Columbus sailed in. His had a few cannons though.)

UPDATED: Fixed.

Carracks can have 4 sails, mostly 4.
it was because of these four sails it was given the advantage of flexibility,
and Famous Carracks, such as "Great Michael" had many guns aboard, "Great Michael" having 24 Broadside Cannons, and 36 smaller guns.
You are right about the mass storage for cargo, it was defiantly one of the Carracks advantages. Also, Carracks can get pretty big.
But anyways, Great model.

Early carracks did not always carry guns. A ship of this size can me modified to a certain extent to a transport or supply ship. The ship here has a modifacation to allow 3 masts instead of 4. This was customary to a supply ship. And, this was an early carrack from the tudor period. Indeed they did get bigger.

Anyway, the name of the file makes no difference. Call it what you want in game.

Hmm, looks very good, in the middle of the ship you should put rails on the sides, looks like people can easily fall off =P, also, try to do maybe more detail in some places. just seems like its missing a good amount of details. 4/5
