The pcsg longships (of two or more masts) has a fore and aftercastle deck which longships don’t have. Galleys don’t really have them either, but their height would have been common on carracks.

Longships only really ever had one deck and even the largest only ever had 1 mast, which was square rigged. The 1 masted longships look like Cogs with oars (which would maybe make them karvis?) but the two and three masted longships don’t resemble actual longships, they look like an odd…[Read more]

They look cool, but they are NOT longships and do not deserve such titles.

The draw of a carrack is it’s larger cargo capacity in comparison to other 3 masted ships, so I was trying to create a ship ability that capitalized on the ships history of cargo hauling without making an entire archetype of gold runners.
