On live a Firestorm War Galleon would be better then a Fortune Hunter one. Why ye ask? Well it will take a great captain and hard hitting crew with fortitude to land a haul of full rare materials with a Fortune Hunter. A Firestorm on the other hand could be done with minimal port now cries.
As to the original question War Brig or War Frigate? I say take a War Frigate, it is the easiest to sail and land broadsides with. The War Brig is a ship more meant for a master-helmsmen. In the right hands a War Brig will crush all NPC ships including the dreaded SOTL with ease. The balance of speed and broadside power is hard to beat, but she is hard to aim broads with for the novice helmsmen. Also skill point distribution is more critical then with other ship classes to get maximum performance out of her.
So in summation take the War Frigate.
