[b] Paddle gunboat Ram ‘General Haslerig’ [/b]
In dire times of war, civilian vessels like the General Haselrig often find themselves drafted. Originally built for cargo and tug work on rivers, she’s now outfitted as a ram ship to force her way through blockades! Warranty void if taken into open water…

[b]To start[/b]
Head into the lower deckhouse
In the engine room, turn the key on each boiler
Once steam pressure has risen, you're good to go
[b]To sink[/b]
Head to chart room on the port side, just behind the captain’s cabin
Sit on the seat and you’ll see the keypad on your left
Choose a sink mode
[u] 1 [/u]
This causes a boiler explosion and slowly begins flooding the vessel
[u] 2 [/u]
Similar to method 1 but also requires winds to be turned up (atleast 40%)
[b]Notes[/b]
Being a sidewheeler, in very rough waves she will be difficult to control
As a converted civilian vessel, her armour is non existent – Speed is your armour
