Hey there, Could we explore, since gunneries are being modified, a change with canister shots ? Some codes to combine efficiency (crew letal) between range + ship height difference. Corvettes & frigates were extremely exposed (the close range rifle shots from crew to be added, like in Ultimate Admiral) when getting too close to a 3rd rate or higher vessals.

No matter who fought this battle, but I wonder what type of ...improvement after 4 years of NA developpment when seeing that kind of spam shallow battle setting. Dev's, was your project initially including these fancy battles ? could there be a light layer of coding to allow more historical realism in PB's ? Like each port/PB having a maxi number of ships per classes and per types. Today a full spam first rates PB is fun but it allows also spam setting of other ships like above. cheers

In past Swedish got bored after being zergs Russians do not get bored, that's all. Rusian group is revealed as being the most effecient solution to deal successfuly with the current server mechanics. Rusians are not the one to blame but the War server available mechanics. If only diplomatic options were available in War server, the zerg issue would be tackled easier.

Ojala las cosas se puedan aplanear con Rusia & Prusia, asi tendreis una autopista abierta para pelearos con los GB y perpetuar la actividad favorita de la Faccion 8)) Suerteee

"Many thanks to everyone on both sides who put the time in to make this an interesting (Even if sometimes salty) war. Spain in particular, best allies you can ask for - Highly recommended!" Pues esto es lo mas importante de todo : A pesar de todo los follones que puedan existir en la Faccion Española, el grupo Español siempre ha sido honrado con su palabra dada. La Faccion es todo lo que quieres, pero es sobre todo un grupo fiable para sus aliados y eso tiene mucho valor en el War server. Gracias por perpetuar esta tradicion de lealtad, es solo un juego pero hay actos que significan mucho. (no veo porque Suecia se molestaria a mencionar este hecho si no fuera la realidad) Aqui esta el real valor de la Faccion y es muy bueno que el servidor lo reconozca.

It's been a good while since we saw a 25 slots battle filled by a single clan, not 25 shallows... Gentlemen, Prussia looks as the most impresive Faction growth from the wipe thx to the KRAKE clan. Good stuff for the server. What is the secret of KRAKE's to gather so many players and keep them unified on long run ? Rusia managed to federate several clans on same stream while Prussia has managed to build up a really consistent single clan. Chapeau !!

Hey all, As I try to comply the campaign in General division level, which is very serious !! In order to preserve soldiers life, we know that every single step in campaign are extremely sensitive with huge consequencies. That's why I come here to ask about the necessity or the reason to keep the first battle stage (not the small skirmish to cross the bridge) of Chancellorsville. With a specially built division of the Avant-guard, (the mission is to take 2 Southern confederate positions) I can capture those 2 positions in time, see screeny below: Why should the battle continue further if I fullfiled the mission ? Why does this battle stage exist if anyway the battle has to carry on ? I always played this battle stage previously by doing nothing, not loose a single man as it's helpless for that long multi-stage battle. Thx for your possible explanation.

Personalmente os aconsejeria de buscar un trato con los Prusianos. Cuando la Faccion Española tiene su arma magica "el espiritu de Mantua" como ultimo muelle, no se si hay un semejante espiritu entre clanes Holandeses...es que pasan muchos clanes nomadas en VP, se quedan un tiempo y se piran. Pregunta: Teneis un clan [LIONS] y los Prusianos tambien ?! Igual hay demasiados alts en esta Faccion ? Suerte !!

Hola Reconquista, Gracias por tu post, esta bien explicado y siempre es bueno conozer las condiciones de jugadores Españoles fuera de la Faccion. El problema es el consejo Holandes donde cada clan tiene que respetar una decision "unanima". Ocurre que hoy sois pocos clanes quedando os en Holanda y los que quedan, que sean activos o no, tienen un voto. Me parece que la historia de esta Faccion siempre a sido : Faccion comerciante y de crafteo en su principio, Holanda ha tenido repetidas temporadas de vacillo, casi desaparecia del mapa, y temporadas de reconstruccion con la llegada de nuevos clanes ambiciosos (uno recordara los 7UP y su lider impetuoso). Prusia tiene viento en popa estas ultimas semanas, me parece razonable conseguir un acuerdo con ellos visto que esteis en un rincon del mapa. Si no, teneis que votar de nuevo y contemplar otras posiciones : una neutralidad ? un pacto de cooperacion con Suecia o Rusia ? Prusia se proclama neutral frente al conflicto Sueco/Ruso, eso tiene su importancia. La logica geografica y politica pondria un pacto con Suecia mas coherente, terminando con las amenazas Españolas y posiblemente ofreciendo un alto al fuego con Prusia. De hecho Suecia y Francia os pueden ayudar de manera reactiva. Un pacto con Rusia podria garantizar una postura amigable de los Prusianos pero la region vuestra estaria muy presionada desde el Este. Si vuestra Faccion a perdido muchos jugadores desde luego teneis que ser muy prudentes y optar para una postura razonable hasta poder reconstruir vuestro playerbase Holandes. Gracias por exponernos vuestra situacion, Suerteee !

Since Spain has decided to join Sweden in the current coalition war, it is nice to see Spanish fleets being deployed else where than Spanish waters. It is a positive evolution in general RvR. Thank you to those who made it possible/feasible. Let's hope we'll see more territories being handed over to small (friendly) Factions, it's healthy for every one. How about Danes getting some safe ports in the Gulf ? How about France with new ports in important strategical map area ? These two Factions should certainly appreciate fresh air (waters) since they are slowly strangled in their home waters. I guess it would improve the RvR since both Factions include a good bunch of active players, like it has happened to Spanish Faction. Cheers Frog

Ya sabemos que hay muchos casos de tacticas que se encuentran al limite de las reglas, de hecho cerca de ser abusos o exploits. Sabemos tambien que las nuevas mechanicas suelen revelar fallos, y siempre hay jugadores que acaban por utilizar aquellos fallos de manera logica. El post del tribunal tiene importancia superior al contexto del RvR, sin mas. Esta tactica puede simplemente convertir un puerto inatacable con cooldown repetitivos.

Hola Jorge, Zapa posted in english, so i guess it's better to carry on debating in english in this thread. I know your reply was spontaneous 8)) cheers m8

Let's try again in case someone missed it.

Hey there ! Glad to get some news from Polish Faction 8)) Poland is not involved in current RvR events, if it's the choice of its members it's fine as it is. However, be aware that one day or another a clan could decide to settle in that Faction, and get a port where they can or where it could ease another friendly Faction of this new settlers. But idealy, and in any cases, it would be good to see the existance of Polish Faction in the map. I guess it could help everyone to see War server full available features in. Fair wind gents !!

From the above kindly posted board, you may consider DE as a third important weight, together with VP & GB, these three Factions have not joined one side or the other. I called Sweden a Dragon awoken cause we remember every time Sweden gets new energy it starts hammering around and eats lots of ports. Sweden was always fighting for the server health, helping the weakest against badies (ex:SORRY). Today the RvR is different, Factions do not mean much, groups of clans make it all. In that sense, wars can be lost, ports as well, but rich clans are very mobile. Rich clans migrate where they want quite swiftly, which makes RvR visibility much shorter and therefore little unpredictable.

C'est pas parceque d'autres joueurs vous insultent qu'on doit forcément se mettre à leur niveau de comportement, à moins de manquer cruellement d'imagination.

Précisément, la Marine Française, et pourquoi pas les joueurs FR de NA, pourraient faire honneur à ses valeurs exemplaires. Les FR pourraient s'appliquer à respecter un code de conduite, ce qui serait inédit et bénéfique pour le reste de la communauté. Mais bon, je sais bien que cette hypothèse d'un code de conduite est illusoire pour les FR, mais sur le principe il fallait conforter les propos légitimes d'Aramis. Quant aux renégats, par exemple, les officiers Français qui s'engagèrent dans la récente Navy Américaine, suite au chaos de la révolution (et à ses purges anti-royalistes), n'étaient pas considérés comme des renégats et gardèrent des relations "respectables" avec les officiers Français. Si on veut faire un parallèle. 8))

Que alucinante ! Despues de una ola de intensa actividad y follones el foro esta ahora con casi ningun tema... Desde luego moderar esto tiene que ser algo muy particular 8))

Dans la Royale, sous la convention ou sous l'Empire, le code de conduite des officiers a toujours été un réglement orgueilleusement respecté. NA est supposé nous plonger dans cette ambiance, il semblerait donc cohérent que nous nous inspirions de ce code de conduite principalement basé sur le respect. Ces règles, les corsaires ou autres mercenaires Français se les appliquaient également, comme d'autres nations les prirent comme modèle pour leur Marine. Aramis a raison sur le principe et ses propos devraient concerner tous les joueurs Français. Une conduite plus respectueuse pourrait certainement être la base nécessaire et fertile à tout projet collectif dans la Faction. Mais voilà ! Les Français dans NA sont des joueurs qui n'ont que faire d'un quelconque code de conduite. (pointer du doigt les Français car leur Marine était exemplaire à cette époque)

This battle is a major event in current RvR. All those who predicted an unfair large conflict with unbalanced player's levels or numbers, were misled ! Swedish dragon has been awoken !! Thank you for this incredible battle gents, RvR is now steping into a more serious & challenging theater. VGGA

Global server ? we better focus on current War server with ongoing RvR events. Otherwise someone may create another thread called "good old days RvR history" or "Pre-wipe RvR history". We need peeps to understand the current RvR stream/events when reading the thread, so let's try to keep it digestible, thx.

It's better to keep out of this topic any personal relationship between players, and keep talking about current RvR stream, perspectives as well as "role playing propaganda". Thx

Would a competitive clan be able to settle in Polish unexisting Faction and run its own Clan/Faction ? It could sound very ambitious and attractive for some players.

One could wonder if the Polish Faction still exists ? When will there be a group of experienced players to settle in that small Faction ? Instead of playing in a large Faction some players might find fun to run an independant Faction ? Lands ? the actual RvR powers could easily offer/hand over some ports or even a Regional capital to Poland; (Sweden is very generous nowadays) in a matter of a few days Poland could exists and play a role. Rusia was "no territories" Faction too ! 8))
