Most of us left after New Edinburgh. Playon was not a real assault from us but was made by those who really wanted to fight the Brits. And i guess after Playon a lot of players left too, you really think we wouldn't be able to defend our ports like we did earlier that day in Buena Vista ? After how we completly outmaneuvered you at New Edinburgh ?

You started it. And if you guys want to offer Peace to Spain i hope you plan on giving them back A LOT of their previous ports. Like 80% of them.

Yeah, but since we're not the kind of players to attack at night hoping for no defense, we'll take it back the honorable way.

Either way, that just shows how much Port Battles Windows sucks, we French can't be here 24/7 to defend.

In the end we'll just remember that you only captured an undefended ports at 2AM after a failed attempt earlier around 19 what a huge window...

And i bet the devs won't do anything for like 5 days

Oh ok i thought you were part of the Fleet that tried to defend New Edinburgh but got denied by our frigates. By the way, i've heard that Buena Vista was captured around 2AM when it was supposedly not possible, is that true ?

Which one ? Because after New Edinburgh we went to meet you guys...

I'm sure the Brits managed to complain about it too.

It's not about bringing a number of Ship of the Lines, it's about having the tactic and the preparation to use them well. But you are too invested into this boring Forum War that i won't try to speak to you again.

You are so spot on. I swear everytime i see Brits in this topic i have the feeling that they are Salty because they lost so much, but still it appears that they are (according to them) crushing us. Oh boy do they sound boring, i hope they're not serious. As i said, we French do like to sleep too and most of us went to bed when we thought that Playon would be another boring Tower battle. Plus we are not that organized yet since most of the fight were previously done by the EDR clan which now has to deal with huge numbers of players eager to fight for France since the Danish crushed us, it will take time and i assure you that people will still be here, we did not traveled that far to give up. We'll probably lose a lot of ships, there will still be plenty of Salty posts from the Brits, but still, the French players will be there to have fun. But it's sad to see that in this Forum the British are not enjoying the game as much as the others do

Most of french players weren't there for Playon because most of us believed that it would have been like those last two undefended ports so a lot of players prefered to go to sleep instead of fighting towers. Panama to French territories is a long shot, and they probably ran away because they estimated that the possible losses were too high and the chances of victory too low. So in order to keep most of the ships (although i don't know how many we lost with the retreat since i was like most of french players at bed) they probably decided to run away. But still it is a funny sight to see that you Brits are fighting so hard in this forum to prove i don't know what. You are supposedly the most powerful nation in the server and yet i do feel like you guys always want to prove something out of battles, it's a war and it's not decided in one port battle. Edit: We'll probably see more this week since we finally have what we originally wanted and the travel will be less boring. And for those that are really serious about ego and stuff i just think you don't understand how the French nation was pathetic before we got crushed by the Danish which made us re-evaluate our organisation, and there's obviously still more work to do during the war since most of us are not that experienced yet. Same with the Leadership, just look at your screenshots, there's no real clan behind the assault while we can see 2 major clans from your side, it helps for the moment to have the advantage in Leadership whereas here in the French Navy we are still trying to figure out our Order of Battle.

At some point i'm wondering if that's just friendly banter covered with role-play or that most of GB players think they're like the e-sport faction of Naval Action.
