After DeaconEire made a post talking about small but yet important diferences between the arrows ships of all the civs, i wanted to see if other ships also have something "special" and also checked other things like speed, so here is it:

Longboat

HP----------290
Attack------ 7
Hack--------30%
Pierce------20%
Range-------12
Cost--------100w 50g
Speed-------5.50
*Able to garrison 5 units, 10 when upgraded. Each unit adds +.5 atack to the ship.
Get some men in whent you need to win the seas at all cost. Howerever, leave the ship with men inside in the back, no the front. Discharge when heavy damaged.

Trirreme

HP----------290

Take advantage of their higher range, atack from distance and lure the enemy ships into your dock area, for faster reinforcements.

Birreme

All of those lil variations makes me think why ES did not put anything of it on the manual or either on the net.
