Good ship for a new crew?
Dutch Vanya:
And the fact that this can work against inexperienced crews is why the flamethrower is stupid.
HamsterIV:
Newbie captains taking a galleon is a pet peeve of mine. They never stop flying in circles and rarely put theirs ship in a position to be effective. Most of the time they can be ignored completely. Which means their ship and the 4 people on it are not playing the same game as the rest of us.
What is worse is they think they are doing good because they are never killed, instead of realizing they are dead weight to their team.
One game a galleon and its crew rage quit after we were down 4-0, yet I was able to win the game by parking my ship near the AI crewed galleon occasionally ramming it to orient its guns. So detrimental was the Newbie's piloting to the effectiveness of the ship that an all AI crew was able to out perform him.

One time a while back, a friend and I were crewing on a noob galleon, and at one point we literally only repaired the right turning engine so we could get guns on the enemies. I'm not sure how many "this ship has no front guns" before they understand :P
Omniraptor:
yeah, I also selectively buff turning engines to make the pilot go where I want sometimes :D

If they have more than 2 seconds experience though, they'll blow the fuck up with ECKSBAWKES HUEG RAEG.
