I enjoyed building my artillery barge, so I decided to make another boat using a similar gun firing system.
This ship has an interior in the upper section.
AG1 - Starboard Guns
AG2 - Port Guns
This ship can fire a total of 48 shots and uses bombs as ammo.
If you have any advice, please tell me in the comments so I can learn to improve my designs for the future.
Also - Thanks for Gold. I will have to improve my building skills a lot now as I think they are a bit too shabby for a Gold player.

This would of won i challenge i did a while ago. lol
@PickyPlanes no problem
@Aarons123 Thanks for the advice. Now that I have done a bit more research I think you're right. Some very early ironclads still did use cannonballs, but i'm pretty sure this ship (which resembles later ironclads) would have used shells. Thank you for pointing this out. I always do appreciate critisism on my designs as it helps me to improve and make better designs. I have plans to build another (and more historically accurate) ironclad, and I will consider your good advice while doing so.
@Mustangflyer Yeah, I know. It's awesome lol
also correct me if I’m wrong but by the time steam engines wore invented, cannon balls worn’t being used anymore and more aerodynamic shells wore being used
I suggest addding a Mast with flags to it, and wires going between it and the two smaller masts you’ve built on the front and back of the ship
coolest name I have ever heard!
