The Chinese Junk is a boxy Small Ship in an Oriental design, with 4 cannons per side, 1 front cannon, 1 anti-sail swivel at the front, and no Nose, which allows the captain to ram and board enemy ships without getting stuck, at the cost of losing the ability to damage the enemy ship via ramming. The Junk, while not the best-armed of Blackwake ships, makes up for this with high defensive abilities and an average speed/turn rate.

Junk's layout of high sides and an open front makes an excellent layout for boarding quickly or for repelling boarders in a grapple. Its high durability means that it can stay afloat under heavy bombardment, even in the hands of a new captain. However, not carrying many cannons, lacking defensive swivels, and poor visibility for the Captain provide downsides which limit its effectiveness.
