"Arrow ship. Good against close-combat ships. Can transport units."
In-game description

The Fire Ship is a Heroic Age Atlantean and Chinese close-combat ship that can be trained at the Dock once the Heroic Age is reached. They fulfill the role of hammer ships available to the other civilizations. They are good against siege ships. Rather than ramming like hammer ships, they deal damage by firing projectiles which deal hack damage.

Gameplay

Their range allows them to tackle enemy ships more efficiently, as they are not at a disadvantage of melee pathfinding and needing to close the gap. This also keeps them safer from naval melee myth units.

History

"The success of the Fire Siphon on the battlefield was noted with great interest by the admirals of the Atlantean navy. It was not long before similar devices began appearing on warships. Early mishaps were common; the first few vessels outfitted with the new weapons caught fire before leaving port. But in their first battle against the Egyptians, the Atlantean fireships returned without a scratch, leaving dozens of burning galleys drifting in the shallow waters at the mouth of the Nile."

-Triremes are critical in gaining control of water as they are the only warship available in the Classical Age. They are also effective in sinking enemy Transport Ships. Once in the Heroic Age they will need support from other warships in order to be effective. They deal bonus damage against Hammer Ships and Transport Ships. Siege Ships will destroy them easily. Naval myth units and coastal siege weapons are also a large threat.

-{{Quote|This oared galley propelled the classical Greek city states, and Athens in particular, into a naval power. The trireme (trieres in Greek) was named because the oarsmen were stationed at 3 levels, allowing more men to fit on a smaller ship. A standard trireme was about 120 ft long, and manned by over 150 oarsmen. the ships could cover about 180 nautical miles at a constant speed of 7.5 knots. They also had square sails, which could not always be used on the temperamental Mediterranean Sea. During the wars with Persia, Athens alone commanded over 200 of these ships.|In-game compendium}}

-* The emblem featured on their sails is the Vergina Sun, an ancient emblem of the Argead Dynasty of Macedon.
-* Trireme (Wrecked) has an internal cost of 100 wood, 50 gold and a training time of 14 seconds.
