i think that once you earned the man o war it should make it so you can build them like some games as you progress and reach a certain rank it unlocks blue prints well when you earn man o war it lets construction of them

At a rough calculation : a MoW would cost about 1.3million to build : around 30mil to get to level10 : would cost between 250 and 300 turns to keep parity with the SotL costs ; and take about 8k wood, 3k iron, 2k tools, 2k cotton in materials. In addition, it would require a number of master craftsmen cards to get it up to the desired strength.

So, I don't see that many ever being built, really. But as a raider, I do rather like the idea of more 30mil treasure-chests cruising the waves...

-1 to this just to counter Loki. lol
I think the game requires, at this time, a lot of thought and I like that.
Making it so MoWs can be produced would weaken their uniqueness.
Why dilute their stature as the premium ship in the game by making them easier to come by.
Something to unlock unlimited Rum for your crew I would be in favor of.
Therefore I say, Nay,
