I had captured it from another clan who captured it. When i saw how much money you needed to upkeep it i

brix and sunk it. i don't think it's worth it. It was pretty damaged so 4 ships took it easily

The black ship is a b

to take and that's just a trade ship...imagine how tough a warship would be...

Everytime I spot it, I can't seem to find it the next turn. It must hall ass and/or falls out of my fog range.

Tip: it almost always sails to the east, hugging the coasts.

East as in actual East or whatever would be straight East on the default ..view.

East on the default view.

I captured it and it's more or less invincible when used properly.

It has been evenly split between north and south routes (it always goes east) in my games. I always take it because despite it's upkeep it is better than building a huge navy and has the same effect, so I use it as a troop transport escorted by some cheaper units.
