Wtf does a ship need stone for bruh
wrong guy mb
“Y’see I got this huge shipbuilding company, but we’re too silly to have materials on hand for even one ship. Can you go get dem? :3”
(i had nothing else okay 
vetex would think of something)
Ballast
Anyways the quests are probably for us to like earn the relevant location’s trust since I doubt a country’s shipyard would just build a war-ready vessel for a nameless sod, not even a company just some guy
Counterweights, armor, strong supporting material?
How about breaking 500 rocks to get enough iron scraps? And killing 500 animals for their leather tomake sails out of?
sails are made of leather? 
Nope, that’s why they call it a sailcloth, because we’re not cavemen.
No.
But actually the idea’s interesting
Collect 500 cotton in the cotton fields
clan building cotton farms
enslave 100 castaways
Tbh that’d all probably be metal
It’s far more durable and can be molded, and a better investiment in terms of efficiency/weight
Only a masochist would use stone really
Sculptors 
what if the frigate was so big there was a museum on board with statues
kid named
Since the HUD is in the center now, does that mean that it all goes invisible as soon as your renown changes, like the cannon toggle?
Correct, one slightly too strong strike and the face is ruined and whole bust crumbles to powder and Michelangelo spawns in front of you and erases you from history and your entire family is horribly murdered
i bet that’s just moved tbh off to the side or above or something
