'''Captains''' were an archetype of naval-based soldiers who led the crew of a ship. They stood out as the only type of enemy whose guard could not be broken. Boardable ships always had a captain, which includes [[Piracy|pirate]] hunters.
A '''naval captain''' is the commander of a [[ship]]. While most captains serve in a nation's navy, throughout history there have also been numerous independent captains, most notably [[privateer]]s and [[Piracy|pirates]]. Sometimes, an individual may command more than just one ship and serve as the captain of an entire fleet, in which case they hold the title of '''admiral'''.

A naval captain is the commander of a ship. While most captains serve in a nation's navy, throughout history there have also been numerous independent captains, most notably privateers and pirates. Sometimes, an individual may command more than just one ship and serve as the captain of an entire fleet, in which case they hold the title of admiral.
