A Dromon modified to carry the medieval naval equivalent of a flamethrower.
The Fire Ship is a Roman Dromon modified to carry a medieval version of the flame thrower used to spew out Roman Fire at unfortunate foes. The flame thrower consists of a copper tube and a set of bellows which can pump out fiery death on to enemy ships, burning both enemy crew and vessel, and occasionally the attackers as well.
