Armada: Dwarf Hunter

The Hunter is the dwarfs’ lightest and fastest vessel, taking its name for its coastal patrols that tenaciously hunt down pirates, and keep raiders at bay. In large numbers, Hunters are capable fighting vessels, though their lack of heavy ordnance makes them little more than an annoyance to the enemy’s main battle ships. In battle, therefore, they are more likely to be found carrying urgent messages and vital cargo between larger ships – in this role, their speed and armour combine to make a remarkably secure relay system.
