1. Noble Swan
2. Bilge
3. Glorious Treasure
4. Divine Dragon
5. Beast’s Belly
6. Proud Tortoise
7. Dragon’s Talon
8. Hansan Island
Solid stats that edge the more mediocre options in my opinion.
9. Pandora’s Box
A bit of English bias here, but underrated as a gold runner.
10. Proud Tortoise
Good little first-strike ship.
I think I would take Gator over the Minnow; turtle ships just don’t have enough firepower to be reliable, so I’d prefer the extra cargo space to a slightly better cannon.
Other HM’s: Admiral Yi , Floating Stone (Alligator and JR Floating Stone are decent but not quite good enough for the Top 10)
