Montrian Light Frigate "The Soldier"
The Soldier-class is a class of small frigates developed by Montria in response to the growing danger of Colefordian light shipping on their communications. These ships come with gargantuan for their size sails which allows them to effectvely chase and destroy the colefordian threats. This comes at a cost of mediocre firepower and survivability. Their scale and armament is similar to one of the Wanderer, so these ships can be deemed as mass-produced Wanderers. Their smaller size also allows for bettter maneuverability to effectvely counter the rotating opponent of any sort.
Their powerful guns on the gundeck are primarily used at close quarters to shred the opponent while the rest of the guns located higher on the weather deck can be used for extra range if needed.
Even despite the similar size to the Wanderer this ship is way more cramped on the inside making it one of the least comfortable conditions of Montrian navy.
This kind of ships is called The Hunter in the Montrian Navy uniting the Wanderer and the Soldier under it.
