Like the Caravel, the United States Sloop is a light scout craft that can be used for scouting, fishing, and supporting heavier ships. Like most ships, the Sloop can also be used to transport units, up to 50 from one location to another. It is more fragile than the Caravel, but possesses faster movement and a stronger attack, along with a charged ability.
The Sloop is faster than the Caravel, but is beaten by the OttomanGalley. This makes them effective for scouting and transporting military units. Because of their lower hit points, Sloops should not be individually sent to naval combat against enemy ships, especially Frigates, which can rip them apart in a matter of seconds. Thus, it is strongly advised to have them supported by other ships and to research technological improvements from the Dock as soon as possible in order to increase their efficiency.
Broadside Attack (charged): Fires all guns at an enemy ship or artillery within attack range, with each shot doing 34 siege damage at a rate of fire of 0.05, 1 area of effect and with x2 multiplier against ships.
