They come fitted with a ram and small fore and stern castles and normally carry a large catapults on their fore and aft fighting platforms. The area after castle is reserved for the captain, drummer and helmsman. The Captain leads a war-band of about twenty hobgoblins to carry out the raid or attack an enemy vessel.  \\  \\  Hobgoblins use slave rowers (for their eight permanent rowers) and supplement them with hobgoblin warriors when they need to reach ramming speed. You can often hear the vessel coming, as they also employ a loud drummer to make sure the rowers keep the right stroke.  Experienced captains treat their slaves well (for hobgoblins), giving them breaks and half-decent rations - not from any sense of kindness, but because they don’t want tired rowers, when they move to ramming speed. \\  \\  There is no galley, or fresh food supplies, aboard the flottah as, while they are on campaign, hobgoblins live on water and trail rations. Their stores are secured under the forward fighting platform, and have a permanent guard.  The Captain, and his immediate staff, sleep below the aft castle, while everyone  else bivouacs on the rowing deck. \\ \\  <color #7092be>Flottah are NOT for sale in 'civilized' shipyards.</color>  [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:shipsstats#longship|Flottahs are a variant of the Longship]]|
