Summary
The Raider provides a unique playstyle that completely ignores the wind penalty most ships have to deal with, allowing for a fast speed in any direction no matter the added bonus of having a disciplined crew. It's high crew requirement also makes it an excellent boarding ship combined with the decent cargo storage and meager cannons at the bow of the ship it is ideally used for quick cargo raids. Although with the shallow positioning of the paddlers it is a hazardous and vulnerable ship to be on if its fired upon. Similar to the other paddle boats due to its fast turn speed and poor coordination it can go out of control and spin if the paddlers are not careful enough with their turning speed.
With a skilled crew and an adequate amount of people it can prove to be a very effective ship in the proper situation.
