    1. part is opposite of what is correct. And the last part is correct but is made very difficult when french daytime "will defend all french ports".
    Nobody wants to fight french, but they make it impossible to avoid and they are not willing to declare that they are the aggressor here.  

    We want to fight the french, but the day french hide the important ports behind night timers.

    Why doesnt Sweden go after them rather than wait for Espana or France to make another move?

    Lazy to do brainless PvE?

    ;)

    This, and the french love to hide there strategic ports behind shitty timers, hoping we will attack other targets that don't require us to sacrifice our sleep

    in response to the spanish dictating where we can and cant play, being told we must buckle down, and coming down to screen for the americans. I hate to break it to you, but there is no way you can spin this that doesnt have spain provoking the war. The first act of war was showing up to screen against us with a leader of one of the most influential clans of the nation, after we "evening" french helped screen an earlier turneffe attack. Spain was at fault for first act of aggression. 

    It only takes one random dude attacking Raxius' indiaman for him to declare total war and rant about wiping a nation of the face of the earth in global for 2 hours.

    That guy is stark raving mad, and to let him dictate policy according to his violent moodswings that in turn are dictated by the procession of moon or some shit is even worse.

    Please provide detailed example of what tools.

    Note: map + protractor/computer ruler + dead reckoning are used today by air and sea navigators.

    Landmarks on the map, or the ability to make notes on the map (for instance whether the port is to the left or the right of that big mountain.) and just more tools for the map in general. I've been asking for map tools like in silent hunter since I started playing this game

    Approximate position once a day in good weather (noon) would also be historical.

    Ffs paintings are NOT a viable source of reference since they were used as either commemorative or celebratory events... A ship CANNOT replace a mast in open waters it needs to be more or less stationary which is not achievable unless beached.. When most recounts speaks of demastings it is either a full demasting (horrible catastrophe that would decide the engagement) or - more often - yard or rigging damage that could be replaced during the stress of either a voyage or an engagement.. These could put the ship out of contention for hours but wasn't as catastrophic as the ship retained some maneuverability..

    You are wrong. They could completely dismantle royals and topmast at sea, for instance to make the ship safer in an apporaching storm. By the time a captain would give this order the sea would already be rough and winds would already be gale force. There is no reason they could not put up replacements masts or jury rig during normal weather in a temporary lull in the fighting. Even easier to fish ('splint') a damaged but not completely broken mast. There are plenty of documented instances, i'm sure @maturin will have some examples.

    Portbattle of Samana

    Prussia attacked Sweden

    Swedish commander: traschiii

    Prussian commander: rush B loool ?

    After the fast fight in Cap-Francais Sweden decided to join in bigger distance to get more time to line up and to wait for the first wind change.

    Soon after the first engage the fleets split up pretty fast. The Prussians sank within the first brawl and had heavy Problems to damage the swedish titanium 1st rates. While the swedish fleet just secured the circles the Prussians got some kills on seperated Swedes. Battle went over the full duration. Sweden won after the time ran out.

    During the whole battle every Captain noticed severe shouting from the Prussian Mortar Brig, which Crew ended up keelhauled at the end of the battle ;)

    Shame I was too sick to join this first official panzer PB fleet :P

    We don't and wont have them because of the number of programmers: 2.
    If programmers work on feature A, they wont work on feature B.
    Battle results were done when we had bigger team which was possible because ratings were higher, sales were better and grass was greener.
    .
    Also - we never really gave hard promises on clan tools/logs. If you really want them - we will give the options to pay for them in march. You can already start supporting new unpromised features by buying forged papers :)

    Ok, i can understand that your time is limited, but logs aren't that hard to code right? It's database calls with an UI (which is why i said you should think about logs before finishing the UI, so you don't have to do double work)

    How do you know who to kick if you don't have clan logs? There is 5m gold in the warehouse, 6 players say they donated 1m. Who is a liar?

    It's even worse. 

    Without even the most basic tools, you wouldn't even know you are 1 million short without manually clicking every port to calculate revenue! And then you had to have written down what was in the CWH before down time, and ask every officer if they perhaps took out some money to buy resources or whatever etc etc...
