I've heard that the ship you begin a career with depends on the nationality and time period. Does anyone know if these are always constant and, if so, is there a list? |

Wow, I had no idea that you could be started with anything other than a basic sloop. Serves me right for always starting in the year 1660.
Thanks for the info! |
