Hi with the mod pack, what is the biggest ship you can buy/capture?

So far I have captured a Manowar (100 gun) a light Manowar(85ish gun) and a ship of the line (100 gun). Havent seen any thing bigger, yet <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> there, mate.

The 100 gun Manowar is the biggest ship that you'll encounter in the game.

Cheers <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

The black pearl has my vote for most "powerful" ship in the game... and it looks cool to boot! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sailr.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":sail" border="0" alt="sailr.gif" />

Not to mention a flight deck with F16's (or JSF's now), just like the aircraft carrier has. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

You guys are way to greedy <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" /> ... I on the other hand would be perfectly willing to settle ...

better of with a super tanker <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />, convert it to a cargo ship those cannon balls cant penetrate a double hull <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />[attachmentid=619]
 
LOL. Now think of what happens if you add cannons all over a supertanker. She'll be about 10000 cannons, right? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

A supertanker with cannons...crikey, talk about firehazard. Would make a good fireship I imagine, like a huge floating petrol bomb.

Now, if we be entering the realms of fantasy (er ships) I be having a dragon as per Naomi Novak's Napoleonic novel series:

Lol I bet you could get more than that on there <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> , Length: 380 m (1245 feet) you could probably get 4 to 5 decks. And with a weight of 647,955 tonnes fully laden you would defently have plenty of balls <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dev.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":d:" border="0" alt="dev.gif" />


This one is probably the largest one in the world
