Cannons
Cannons are the backbone of Windrose ship combat, used to soften enemies before boarding or disengage safely.

- Role
- Ship damage
- Best use
- Broadside pressure
Cannons define the tempo of naval combat. Good cannon pressure weakens enemy ships before your crew risks a boarding action.
Broadside Basics
Think about angles before firing. A rushed shot at a poor angle wastes the opening and lets enemies answer with their own broadside.
Supplies
Keep cannon supplies close to the deck workflow. If the group has to dig through storage during a fight, the ship is already behind.
