Demolition Raft clustered-fleet strike
Demolition Raft: Demolition Rafts are fast but fragile, so their best use is a short high-impact run into a cluster of enemy ships. A direct hit can change a small naval fight before the opponent can reposition.

Overview
Demolition Raft: Demolition Rafts are fast but fragile, so their best use is a short high-impact run into a cluster of enemy ships. A direct hit can change a small naval fight before the opponent can reposition.
Plan and execution
Wait until enemy Galleys or Fire Galleys group around a route, then send the Raft from an angle that reduces warning time. Use ordinary ships to draw attention and keep the Raft’s approach hidden until the target formation is committed.
Risks and adaptation
A Raft can be destroyed quickly and is inefficient against a spread-out fleet or a well-guarded Dock. Do not chase individual ships across open water or launch the attack before a useful target cluster appears.
