Gun Ships

Added 2022-11-29 00:44:29 +0000 UTC

A massive cannon dominates the length of the ship's battle deck, flanked by rows of spherical steel shot capable of blowing even the sturdiest of astral vessels to smithereens. A quad of smaller cannons surround the central barrel's breech, and another four arm the upper decks of the sterncastle. The ship's mass compromises its maneuverability, though some would argue its firepower more than compensates for its poor handling.

The gnomish gunner is a unique craft in nearly every sense of the word, often built from the salvage of scrap ships and armed with experimental weaponry. A large wheel, powered by their hulking astral hamsters, provides supplemental power to the vessel when not at cruising speeds. Ever industrious, the gnomes have found a use for their beasts' dung as well, which burns in their precarious onboard furnaces.
