Something I've always wanted is instead of having lite, reg and war classes of the 3 ship types like they have now have 3 ship types: 1. Fast ships (sloop), 2. Cargo ships (Gallon) and Fighter ships (Frigate). The way it would work is 3 Historical ships in each of these classes.

For example in the Cargo class you might have:
1. Fleut (replacing lite gallon)
2. Gallon (replacing reg Gallon)
3. Indiaman (Replacing War Gallon)

Fighter Class:
!. Brigantine
2. Frigate
3. Man o War or Ship of the line

Fast Ships
1. Sloop
2. Brig Sloop
3 Schooner.

I'm guessing a lot here and probably don't have many of the types right (or the periods), but you get the idea.

I agree with Zep we don't need stronger ships. But having more types of ships with some historical accuracy would be nice.
