Shipwright-Buddy.pngShipwright says... The Ptarmigan is a combat-modified version of the Grouse, with strengthened hull and added cannons. Available for a limited time.

It's great armament and hull strength make up for it's loss of cargo capacity compared to the Grouse. The Ptarmigan is a decent support ship in combat, though it’s turning rate makes it a rather stiff vessel to helm in ship-to-ship battles.

It’s still decent cargo capacity of 10 ensures the crew doesn’t need to carry all the cargo home after a raid.

Trivia

  • The Ptarmigan was released on February 8th, 2023 and was buildable until the 3rd of March, 2023.
  • It was removed from the shipwright on March 3rd, 2023
  • Much like the Stiletto being the Cutlass's combat counterpart, the Ptarmigan is the Grouse's combat counterpart, sharing the same hull design.
