Folklore

The heavy argument. If a Port is a mouth, a Warship is the teeth. Captains paint gold stripes on the stern the way other men paint medals — each stripe is a rumor that came true.

Ledger

Hit points
1,000 at launch. Each gold stripe adds 20%, so rank 3 sits at 1,600 HP.
Guns
85-tile targeting. Shells home until the fuse ends — they do not chase forever. Base shell is 250 damage.
Ranks
0–3 gold stripes from killing transports (10 per rank) and capturing trader ships (25 per rank). Rank 1+: +50% shell damage. Volley is 1 / 1 / 2 / 3 shots. Rank 3 slowly repairs the hull.
Speed
1 tile per tick on patrol. Hunts at 2 steps per tick.
Cost
First hull $250,000, then $500,000, $750,000, cap $1,000,000. Spawns from the nearest Port.

In the game

Click water to set a patrol box. Attack-click the Warship, then water, to move it. It captures enemy trader ships, fights Marauders and Transports, and can bombard coastal buildings. Near a friendly Port it heals faster. Park one on a trade lane and the gold starts walking toward you.
