Warmongering Menace
The attached image begs to differ.
Nobody would complain if the Trireme model was replaced with a speedboat w/pirates model or the Caravel model was replaced with commandos in pontoon boats, so from a mechanical standpoint there's no problem. It's just a realism argument, and I don't see changes to core gameplay as being necessary to solve it.
Great, now every time I get attacked by an old boat in the modern era I'm going to hear Cartman singing "Somolian Pirates We".
