The heaviest and largest of the sailing ships. Four masts, plenty of sail, catapults, ballistae, at least 30 marines - they might even have cannons - and commanded by senior, and experienced, officers. Designed as long distance vessels, they can cope with just about any weather and sea conditions. Ships of the line with long and deep water distance sailing ability. It is best to stay away from them, unless you have the support of a fleet.

They are almost certain death for lone pirates.
