As with the latter quarter of the 17thcentury the line-of-battle remained the dominant tactic in naval engagements of the 18th century. Ever increasing ships of the line were built to increase the numbers of guns in the broadside. The typical practice was to measure a ship in the number of gun decks, but some principalities measured their ships by the total number of guns. Most ocean going princes and dukes used two-deckers, with some afford one or two three-decker flag ships. | As with the latter quarter of the 17thcentury the line-of-battle remained the dominant tactic in naval engagements of the 18th century.

===Kindred War=== | |||
While not a dorect participant in the war, [[Burgundie]] strongly supported [[Faneria]] in the [[Third Kin War]] and formed the backbone of its ship building capabilities. In | |||
[[1821]] [[Burgundie]] delivered a fleet of formidable ships to [[Faneria]] which was one of the major factors to its victory. | |||
===Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars=== | |||
Prior to the unification of the southern coastal principalities of the Kingdom of Dericania under the banner of Burgundie in 1875 the navies varied greatly and money was spent mostly on mercantile ventures that could be pressed into service if needed. This lead to large, lightly armed ships being common in the various naval engagements of the early 19th century.

Kiravia focused on building ironclads while Burgundie built faster and sleeker warships with barbettes firing explosive shells. This style of warfare dominated the design of late century warships. | ||
