| − | It's great armament and hull strength make up for it's massive loss of cargo capacity compared to the Grouse. This all combined makes the Ptarmigan a decent ship for [[Piracy]], because of it's relatively good speed and cargo capability, great for raiding slower trading ships like the [[Camel]]. | + | It's great armament and hull strength make up for it's loss of cargo capacity compared to the Grouse. The Ptarmigan is a decent support ship in combat, though it’s turning rate makes it a rather stiff vessel to helm in ship-to-ship battles. |
| − | The Ptarmigan can operate independently as a decent combat ship but can also function as effective support ship in fleets.
