Age of Empires II
Edit
In Age of Empires II, the fire ship is a small ship with a "flamethrower" mounted in the bow. It has an attack bonus against other ships. it must come in very close to enemy ships in order to attack. It upgrades to Fast Fire Ship. Fire ships are good counters to most ships and deal damage quickly. They may even be employed in shallows against ground troops to good effect. However demolition ships are perfect counters to fast fire ships due to the close proximity with which a fire ship has to attack. Korean Turtle Ships are also threats to Fire Ships and even Viking Longboats can be a threat. Fire Ships have a very rapid attack speed but a low attack per "flame".
The Byzantine Fire Ships have a 20% faster firing rate.
