Galleon or Frigate - which is better?

[Hile]

I agree, you need at least one other guy on the crew to take advantage of the front cannons on the Frigate to really show its stuff.

Otherwise if you're alone you may as well use the Galleon and get the most out of the broadsides.

War Sloop is good for traveling. Maybe it can be good in combat if you're very skilled at the hit and run. I think it'd be a better PvP ship than PvE.
