Summary[]

"The Prometheus's steam engine allows her to quickly move upwind. Press E to toggle steam engine on and off. Requires coal to use engine." - Shipwright Summary

The Prometheus is a level 10 warship with heavy armament, a strong hull, and a steam engine. While its size and speed make it an easy target, its large broadside and high health often result in the Prometheus decimating any enemy unfortunate to be caught in its broadside.

Ship Characteristics[]

The Prometheus is a Steamship, unlocked at level 10. The Prometheus fits 2 light mortars on its bow often used to siege an enemy from a distance, stern cannons to protect its aft, and an engine allowing it to traverse upwind with ease. However, one of the largest downfalls of the Prometheus is its extremely slow turn speed, allowing faster ships to maneuver into blind spots and fleets to maneuver around it to punish its weaker stern and bow protection. The Prometheus boasts a very large broadside, consisting of two decks of guns. The Broadside of the lower deck consists of Six Heavy Cannons Slots, and the upper deck consists of Six Medium Cannon Slots. The Prometheus' Broadside is a formidable opponent, even being able to challenge larger warships such as the Alliance. Even with the Heavy Armament, it still boasts a modest 10 Cargo Slots, which can be used to store the cargo of enemy vessels. Overall, the Prometheus makes a powerful warship, and should not be underestimated by any opponents crossing its path.

Trivia[]

  • The strong armament, bolstered upwind mobility, and imposing size of the Prometheus makes it a formidable opponent in battle.
  • The Prometheus is part of a ship family with the Atlas and Astraeus, thus sharing many features.
  • The Prometheus originally had only its three lower-deck size heavy cannons as its broadside armament, making it a fairly weak combat ship.
  • The Prometheus was removed from the shipwright on the 20 April 2021 update, but was reintroduced in the 22 April 2022 update with an increased build cost.
