Well done, its harder than it looks. I think he used Microsoft Powerpoint or something similar and prepared a few simple slides for use during the vid. I think the use of Powerpoint gave the video structure, he had set topics he updated for example (and just from memory): Position at the end of last week. RvR and politics since last vid. Game news, patches and the like. PvP and RvR hotspots expected in the next week. This was the first one you produced so its going to be longer as you covered quite a lot of ground. I played it at 1.25x speed, it was a bit snappier. I found out where the Danish Nation are on the map too . Buster (always learning and forgetting)

Yes please! It would mean that wading through Privateer fleets would be worth it. Buster (shot through)

I'm sure it will be classy. Buster (aspirin prepped for head slapping.)

Just Russians with a fighting Danish alt and a whole ton of resentment Buster (Giggling)

At last! Buster (a convert)

No problem. Bear in mind I was taking the piss a bit (a lot ) Buster (generous to a fault)

HAV0C take SJ. The ultimate chew.

Can you name those who are the glamour boys? They can then be singled out for particular scrutiny. Buster (Polishing glass eye)

A pound (unit symbol is lb) is a unit of mass. A 32lb cannon ball has a mass of about 14.5kg. The NA Victory has a cannon broadside weight of 1296lb (see netlify), this is around 588kg, or 0.588 Tonne. So, if the Victory carries 100Tonne of ball it could fire up to 170 broadsides before all 100Tonne has gone. However, before 170 broadsides have been fired either you, or your opponent, has usually sunk. If your 100+ tonne figure is correct , I reckon the game is fine for at least one 90 minute battle, no-one fires broadsides continuously. No need for rationing shot in my opinion; unless you want a battle to last 14 hours! Buster (gonna lie down now). PS. If anyone wants to rebut the above for my non-inclusion of chain, double shot, chasers or carronades, please see refer to the section on Naval Action for the anally attentive.

A nasty bit if forum dermatillomania you've got there Staun. Buster (looked for ages)

I have a small dog that keeps on barking, same bark over and over. Any suggestions. Buster (Leash said the better)

Was good fun for us at least. Well done the Brits who turned up for trying something new to try and stop the onslaught using their Mercuries and Requins. Back to the drawing board I think. Buster (Bumper Boater)

Privateer OP? Do you think @Pagan Pete might return? Buster (Yarrrr)

I appreciate this is an older stream and things may have changed, but this sounds similar to events at Nassau. In this case from first AI points to lost battle took only 105 seconds (video time 13:12 to 14:57), all pretty swift. The shallow pbs look more difficult than the deep ones as sinking an Indiaman with a 1st rate is somewhat easier than the shallow equivalent. Anyway, congratulations on the paternal news @admin, long life to all! Buster

Sounds very frustrating, especially when mods and tweaks are implemented without patch notes. Is there a video of this raid? What ships were you defending with? Were the NPC LGV's faster than a speed built Renomee for example? Buster

A mortar brig tutorial, I clearly need one. Buster

I sold the name. More names available: Rediv Captain Forward Heathsick ABT Synoth Liam666 South Viking Anoliptic Shocktripper Baster Nimda Sharon (Sold) Clan names also available. Prices on application. Buster (Names & Co.)

I like Sweden, the flag is a big plus. Buster (aka Sharon)

@admin advised previously (somewhere in my fading memory) that there are map compatibility problems with coming out of Battle Instance into OW e.g. finding yourself locked in shallows or half way up a mountain! However, a solution might now be to come out of battle instance at the nearest AI 'fixed route line' or turn point for your ship design (now that AI ships don't pass through land anymore). Guess its an effort to game benefit balance issue; you might get some odd results (emerging on wrong side of Cuba etc.) and associated exploits. Buster (that's my effort)

The soul of Poland is indestructible, and she will rise again like a rock which may for a spell be submerged by a tidal wave but which remains a rock. Buster (I only heard)

S'not working ! Is it rude? Buster (redactable)

No, but I was disconnected and have been trying to login for that last 10 mins. Says connection error eventually but all my internet is fine. Buster (Hacked....off)
