The '''Phoenix''' is an improved version of the [[Otter]], possessing both a steam engine and iron reinforced hull while keeping the same other performance statistics as its sister ship. The Phoenix's strong front-facing power and broadside armament coupled with high health and good maneuverability make it one of the most well-rounded combat ships usable with just about any fleet.
The '''Phoenix''' is an improved version of the [[Otter]] and [[Badger]], possessing both a steam engine and iron reinforced hull while keeping the same other performance statistics as its sister ships. The Phoenix's two front facing mortars are very deadly in the hands of skilled artillery-men, so one can most commonly see the Phoenix hanging back in combat as it mortars the opposing ships. Be mindful although, if an enemy gets close to the ship the slow turn rate of the Phoenix will allow your enemy to get a few good broadsides on you. Which is where the hull strength comes in. With an impressive broadside (4x size 7 cannons per side) it can tank hits as well as dish them out.
