    Exclamation What a Joyful Surprise it would be...

    ...to have a certain 28 gun frigate available in Empire TW.
    Ideally it would be a frigate available to the French which, when captured by the British, gets decked out with a surprising number of high quality ancillaries.

    For those of you not aware of what I'm hinting at, do yourself a favour and go read the Patrick O'Brian series of novels (don't merely watch the excellent Master and Commander movie) for a first rate primer into Napoleonic naval warfare.

    Well don't forget that there is Hornblower too. And I wouldn't put it totaly out of the passable that someone puts one or both, or at least some reference to them into the game.

    I wouldn't mind a hidden reference, if it's done subtly. CA has some excellent easter eggs in their games, intentional or not.
