Ships Of The Line
A ship of the line was a type of naval warship constructed during the Age of Sail from the 17th century to the mid-19th century. The ship of the line was designed for the naval tactic known as the line of battle, which depended on the two columns of opposing warships maneuvering to volley fire with the cannons along their broadsides. In conflicts where opposing ships were both able to fire from their broadsides, the opponent with more cannons firingand therefore more firepowertypically had an advantage. Since these engagements were almost invariably won by the heaviest ships carrying more of the most powerful guns, the natural progression was to build sailing vessels that were the largest and most powerful of their time. From the end of the 1840s, the introduction of steam power brought less dependence on the wind in battle and led to the construction of screw-driven wooden-hulled ships of the line; a number of purely sail-powered ships were converted to this propulsion mechani ...

Hercule Class Ship Of The Line
The ''Hercule'' class was a late type of 100-gun ships of the line of the French Navy. They were the second strongest of four ranks of ships of the line designed by the Commission de Paris. While the first units were classical straight-walled ships of the line, next ones were gradually converted to steam, and the last one was built with an engine. Design The ''Hercule'' class evolved as an enlargement of the straight-walled, 90-gun , suggested by Jean Tupinier. With the ''Henri IV'', a rounded stern was introduced. The next ships were built with the rounded stern, and it was retrofitted on the early units of the class.

List Of Ships Of The Line Of The Royal Navy
This is a list of ships of the line of the Royal Navy of England, and later (from 1707) of Great Britain, and the United Kingdom. The list starts from 1660, the year in which the Royal Navy came into being after the restoration of the monarchy under Charles II, up until the emergence of the battleship around 1880, as defined by the Admiralty. The early Restoration period (1660–77) This list includes several earlier ships which were ''rebuilt'' for the Royal Navy in this period—specifically the first-rate ''Prince Royal'' (in 1663), the second-rate ''Victory'' (in 1666), the third-rate ''Montague'' (in 1675) and the fourth-rates ''Bonaventure'' (in 1663) and ''Constant Warwick'' (in 1666). The process, which generally involved the dismantling in dry dock of the old ship and constructing it to a new design incorporating part of the materials from the old vessel, produced what were in effect substantially new ships with altered dimensions and sizes, and generally mounting ...
