Adler von Lubeck was a Hanseatic war galleon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adler_von_Lübeck The name Adler for a UU is a bit unfortunate, I think. While named UUs are not a bad thing for modern-era ships (like Dreadnought or Yamato), since they adhere to series or classes of warships (but were still standardised within said series that usually numbered more than two or three vessels), doing so for ships of the age of sail is a poor choice. Each ship during the renaissance was more or less unique, be it in size, shape or fame. Having a fleet of Adlers (or Royal Charles's, or De Zeven Provinciens, or Santa Marias) may not be factually incorrect, but would make way less sense than having fleets of standardised Dreadnoughts or Yamatos.

So yeah, a generic Kogge is much better. And more medieval in nature.![Smile :) :)](/data/assets/smilies/smile.gif)

Oh, but that is a one of a kind ship (cool none the less)
