Great idea, sounds like a part of the game Pirates Loosing crew, hire crew, good old Shanghaiing crew (ships/free ports), heal crew - all great and would people start to think twice about attacking a ship and waste their crew in boarding attempts. Question - will sending a ship to home port also lower the crew? Anybody has to sail the capture. There was a reason why pirate ships sailed usualy overcrewed (attacks on settlements, sometimes capture ships).

Weather impact in OW & Battles - very appreciated! Just a question - is there a chance to bring in damage to ships due weather? Even a SOL should not set full sails in a storm without losing a mast and very small ships caught open sea in a storm could sink.

Hey folks, just my 2 Cents All sound fine, but... 7 days ownership would not change a lot to the way ports are captured at the moment, just the period and peek times will change. 20 Port changes not every 24/48h, every 7 days. People will switch to heavy port attacks on weekends and (more worse) to their own clan peek times, what will have impact to server population (NF proved )Suggestion: Bind port captures to war times with 48/72h cooldown or 24h until capture is in effect plus 24h until port belongs to the capturing nation plus 24h until effects for nation (port/trade taxes) will be in effect War taxes/times/cooldown 24h until war is in effect 1st period is e.g. 10k for 5 days, 2nd period e.g. 30k for next 5 days, 3rd period is e.g. 100k for next 5 days, ending war with 10 days period e.g. 500k cooldown after each war 72h message for ending war (war will end in 24h, will you continue....) NO port battle in the last 72h (if you set a period like above mentioned) Blockade (killing trader) will have impact on income for nation (port produce 50% less income after killing XXX trader ships) Nation effect port building taxes producer taxes ship taxes per BR trade taxes trader nations (e.g. netherlands) have more income from trader taxes pirates should have less income but no ship taxes cu OW
