AfkSailor Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Now that Legends is here, can we please get rid of capture circles and go back to the more realistic attacking/defending forts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 1 to 3 battles, simultaneous or chained in succession ( depending on port ), for control of vital approaches to port and then the port itself ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hethwill Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I agree. Just picking up on your comment of the surroundings and thought it was very cool. So please... stop acting like you own the parade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christoph Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 it would be interesting if there were different pb systems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hethwill Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Fair enough. Idea is great. Cartagena raids were multi step operations. Portobelo, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could we stop working on things that are not broken and instead put work into things that are and on new content? Battlemechanic wasnt broken and PB battlesystem isnt broken While I do not think that port battles are broken, I would suggest perhaps incomplete. Would you consider the addition of the use of Marines to take key points, dock facilities and forts in conjunction with the Mortar brigs. Perhaps the performance of the Marines could be linked to the performance of the sea battle going on in the bay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk33y Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 +1 for port battles over a few days.. Securing supplys/ blockade Fort attacks/defence Port battle to capture/defend harbour (old circle system) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at our (russian) fight with gb. We capture key ports left, right and centre from gb. They ask the usa to abandon ports and in 12 hrs they have re-coop'd there loses. Either remove the greenzone ports from the conquest tab or slow down conquest... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Just now, monk33y said: Either remove the greenzone ports from the conquest tab or slow down conquest... I think conquest is mainly to fast because of (partly) broken hostility missions. Especially for shallow ports the defender has hardly any time to react if four guys in Wasas start four hostility missions at the same. Of course hostility is still better than looking for OW fleets three days in a row, I am not denying that. But with the upcoming insta-PBs I see a lot of potential ragequit when you as defender simply can't react. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would make the game much more tactical and nations would have to be a bit more careful where they stock all their ships if other nations could make surprise attacks. It also makes owning vast areas of the map a little harder and gives smaller nations a good chance to grab some real estate. The nation being attacked could always take the port back later.
