 WARNING: You are in a NEUTRAL PLAYER KILLING room.     -      S      -

A line of massive black iron cannons extend the length of the ship and
each is saddled with heavy ropes to tie them in place should the ship lurch
unexpectedly.  Two four-sided pyramids of cannonballs are stacked on either
side of the deadly guns and held in place by cargo nets.  The battleway is
in immaculate military order save for the frozen creep of water that
overlaps the gun ports.
