Binglehopper

The Binglehopper is an ironclad ship with the highest base health of any ship in Tradelands, often seen in a support role with its massive hull strength and slow speed and turn-rate. It holds a very potent armament of 2 Medium chasers, a mortar compatible Heavy Turret slot, a Medium Turret stern gun, and 2 Swivel Guns for boarding defense. The Heavy Turret used on a Binglehopper can be adapted depending on the intended role of the Binglehopper in the upcoming engagement.

Trivia

• The Binglehopper was released on December 22, 2019.
• The Jinglehopper upgrade was released along with the Binglehopper and would give the ship a Christmas theme complete with a Christmas tree, presents, and festive plants. Unlike the Neptune or Poseidon Upgrades, the Jinglehopper is purely cosmetic.
• Players often shorten the name of the Binglehopper to just "Bingle"
• A heavy mortar can be mounted on the ship's heavy turret slot.
