Colefordian Lineship "Randolph"
The Randolph is a Montrian-built 64-gun 3rd rate ship of the line constructed not long after the Montria has declared an independence. She is a typical ship of her time, except for one thing, she is over half a century old. Such a long service is explained by the fact that although she was built by Montria, currently she runs the Colefordian Jack. She was captured in one of the first major engagements between the countries, and the already aging ship has been towed to Colefordian capital and extensively refitted. Althrough her age still shows its signs: At first she is very clumsy at high seas ensuring sea sickness for the whole crew.
Her armour is very light that barely fall under a Ship of the Line term and at first she was given a 4th rank at Colefordian Navy, later it was changed to the 3rd. This lightness also made her very fast which allowed her to be a perfect raider which can chase down and destroy literally everything, she can outgun anything she cannot outrun and outrun anything she cannot outgun. Her sailing profile is monstrous for ship of her size which also adds up to speed, but requires more crew to operate. This old-fashioned look, and the age difference from other newly-built Colefordian ships makes her truly unique one, especially that the Montria had two other ships of her class, that had been scrapped long ago.
All attempts of Montria to reclaim their relic were in vain.
