In the game's words
How to use it
The Sloop replaces the Caravel and is unique to the United States. It is available starting in the Commerce Age and, like the Caravel, is an effective early warship also capable of fishing. Instead of a broadside ability, the Sloop has a charged attack that is automatically used on its first target in a battle. Sloops are faster than Caravels and have a higher attack range, but are less durable against attacks.
History
During the American Revolution and the following years, the young nation faced a vast problem: it had no navy, leaving it vulnerable to sea blockades, bombardment, and piracy. Small war vessels like sloops and their cousins, cutters and schooners, formed a key part of the American navy during its early years. Vessels such as the USS Hannah, the Franklin, the Warren, the Hancock, and the Lee used their superior mobility to even the odds against formidable opponents, and still hold an esteemed place in the nautical lore of the northeast United States.
