Copied all from English Wikipedia, as the entire article was written by me.
[[Triremes]], [[biremes]] and [[quinqueremes]] are all mentioned during ''New Barbarians''. Rather than being defined by banks of oars, the names refer to the number of screw propellors on the boats. Despite being armed with near-modern equipment, the ships are still designed to be used as traditional Roman ships; boarding enemy galleys rather than attacking them directly. Contact with the Aztec/Serican fleet forces the Roman empire to develop battleships for the first time during ''New Barbarians''.
