6th Rate Frigate: These warships were built to protect coastlines, attack merchant ships and were also often used to hunt down pirates.
The pirates could almost never put up with a 6th Rate Frigate, but there is an example of the pirate Edward 'Blackbeard' Teach capturing one and using it in his fleet.
This version of a 6th Rate Frigate from Firelock Games is modeled in an attempt to mimic what Blackbeard's ship might have looked like.
