Thesis: The implementation of a new vessel type for the game would add one more piece of scenery for higher-end playing, consistent with the culture as presented in the game and may permit implementation of future naval gameplay.

Background/Description: The Viking war ship has been a cultural icon of terror and military prowess of the reputed Northmen and in a game that appears to be heavily based on Nordic folklore, it seems to be consistent that eventually the denizens would develop the war ship.

It would be an advanced design, purely made for naval control, raiding although it would offer some options for trade due to slightly improved cargo capacity(three slots for large items instead of two). It could take up to three passengers in addition to the navigator, and requires at least one passenger for it to become mobile. Its expense would be sigificant.

It would have the highest speed of any water vessel, and offer an option to block access or control the movement of nearby water vessels, perhaps in a manner akin to claims. This should not apply to ground movement, and this should not be active unless the vessel is actually manned and online.

Like rafts, it should not be reasonable to carry it overland; doing so would require significant disassembly, each which requires a great deal of time. Every disassembly/assembly would damage it significantly.
