[@SantosGabriel77] So firstly your source doesn't say "ramming was used as a desperate measure", it says "ramming was never used because it would probably just fuck up the attacker's ship without doing much to the target". Secondly, why would you go to the extra expense and effort, not to mention the added weight and probably sup-optimal hull profile, of adding a ram to your ship if it's a desperate last resort and requires evacuating your ship beforehand?
