I searched for naval action ships and then *HMS PANDORA* showed up and  actually i didn't know what *Diana* and *Kepler* was too, could someone care to explain what and how these ships look and such that would be much appreciated :)

Pandora will be the gift ships all players that tested the game will get. It's some where between the Niagara and Cerberus with 9lbrs on it. With the way her deck is set up they could actually do something like they did with the Prince have all cannons on one deck but mixed two types if you want.  As for teh Diana and Kepler they are none ships being worked on.  Believe both are SOL's?  You actually might have better luck going to the shipyard section and looking for post about them.

Upon release of the game most likely.

There is the info on it and the only picture I seen of it so far. The more I look back I bet it's going to be more like the Cerb than the Naigara

The Pandora in question (there have been 10 ships carrying the name) is a 24 gun 6th rate of the Porcupine class, Built in 1779 her claim to fame is that she was despatched to recover the mutineers from HMS Bounty in 1790.  Having partially fulfilled her mission HMS Pandora foundered on the Great barrier reef in 1791 and is a known wreck site. To the best of my Knowledge the Naval Action ship is due to be 'gifted'  to all on release of the game. While there are some photographs of a model of HMS Pandora  I am not certain which Pandora they are but there is a lithograph of the foundering and a few photographs of the wreck.
