The '''Prometheus''' is a level 10 warship with heavy armament, a strong hull, and a [[Steam Engines|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. 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.

Summary

The Prometheus is a modified Astraeus with two long guns per broadside sacrificed to allow for the installation of a steam engine.
