Ship

From WikIkariam, the Ikariam wiki - Guides, buildings, ships and more.

Ships are built at the Shipyard and help to blockade other harbours or defend your towns from overseas assault, except for Cargo Ships, which are purchased in Trading Ports and used for transport rather than combat.

The   cost may be reduced by a Carpenter's workshop; the   cost by a Firework Test Area and the   cost (for the Diving Boat) by an Optician.

[edit] Cargo Ship

Trade ships are the most important support for your island empire. No matter whether they have to transport goods, units or news: your seamen will make sure that everything arrives at its destination quickly and safely.

Every Cargo Ship costs more than your previous one. Cargo ships are purchased at a Trading Port and cannot be destroyed. They can hold up 500 Goods or the equal amount in Units (each unit has a size in goods). Trade ships are available for carriage in any of your own towns without the need for transport of the ship.
