The Hook is a somewhat small yet potent ship which is unique in being the only ship to hold Heavy Cannons on its Bow. Its low manpower and potent chasers allow it to support fleets and punish enemy heavy ships, able to effectively sternlock and deal significant damage to the main firepower of enemy fleets. The main weaknesses of the Hook are its lacking maneuverability and poor wind tilt, which combined with its below-average health makes the Hook ill-suited for broadside battling other ships and attempting to make use of wind tilt. Nevertheless, it can be a good addition to a large fleet in need of a support vessel to pressure enemy warships.
Trivia
- A variant of the Hook, the Alpha Hook!, was given to Alpha testers of Tradelands World who met specific requirements. It contains a radio not found in normal Hooks.
