Great Captain

(Stormwrack, page 92, DnD 3.5)

[General]

You are a master pilot and battle leader; your crew anticipates your every command and leaps to do your bidding.

Prerequisite

Leadership, Knowledge (geography) 7 ranks, Profession (sailor) 7 ranks

Benefit

If you are in command of a vessel, you can use the aid another action to assist all other persons on board who are performing the same action in the current round--for example, making an attack, making Profession (siege engineer) checks, making Profession (sailor) checks, and so forth. Commanding the vessel in combat is a move action for you.

Normal

You can only use the aid another action to assist one character at a time. Commanding a vessel in combat requires a standard action.
