  1. C'est quoi, la liste des clans actifs français. Quelqu'un peut poster le leaderboard?
  2. Ce genre de comportement n'est pas une spécificité française, loin s'en faut. Je l'ai vu et parfois vécu dans au moins quatre nations... Je ne vous donne pas de détails sur le "BASTD bashing" qui a conduit au passage de ce clan chez les Danois. Tout en douceur, évidemment. Ou pas. Je ne suis pas parti chez les Anglais parce que tout allait bien. Je suis parti sans attendre que tout aille mal. La forte tendance dictatoriale des Suédois n'arrange rien actuellement pour la nation France. Si un Suédois attaque un Français, c'est du PVP. L'inverse est une rupture des conventions, surtout si le Français gagne. Jouer seul est une solution, temporaire ou non selon le caractère. Jouer tout seul est un style de jeu dangereux. Âmes sensibles aux pertes de pixels s'abstenir... Dans le chat, on peut masquer les joueurs "toxiques" voire masquer le chat, le temps d'aller faire un raid chez les VP, les Suédois ou autres à partir des villes libres. Shroud Cay est pas mal, Tumbado non plus. Honnêtement, couler un "Enemy Player" ou deux, ça remonte le moral. Plus que de ganker un Cerberus avec 5 ou 6 Trincs ou Redouts. On signale des embouteillages d'Indianmen autour de Vera Cruz... 😉😀
  3. Ceci a été proposé sur le forum. On pourrait peut-être en proposer d'autres ?
  4. French Flag: Les Corsaires de Saint Malo The flag of Saint-Malo is blue, red white. Corsairs were flying red colors as attack flags. During the reign of Louis XIV, flags of war ports were all united background colored with a silver cross (white), the backgound being specific to each port (azure for Saint-Malo). Finally, a passing ermine tied with gold (colors specific to the weapons of the city), recalling the belonging of Saint-Malo to the Duchy of Brittany. This flag was flown by the corsairs of Saint-Malo (René Duguay-Trouin, Robert Surcouf), in addition to the Royal Flag (which was normally flown by war ships of “La Royale” only). Corsairs of Saint-Malo got a special authorisation to fly the Royal Flag, in spite of not belonging to La Royale, and their own flag below. In fact, the Flag of Saint-Malo was often flown above the Royal Flag, which can still be seen now a days in some city buildings… Source: https://saintmalosecret.fr/blog/histoire/ni-francais-ni-breton-malouin-suis/
  5. Revision 02 issued. The link is updated in the first post. I decided not to create an external link to this forum, the permanent link will stay: https://forum.game-labs.net/topic/33234-naval-action-user-guide/ The advantage is to give a link to the place where comments can be made if something must be further clarified, or must be corrected.
  6. No gazette today? Bloody journalists, always in taverns!
  7. The next revision of our User Guide is being written-up. This update 2020-03 will include: More details on crafting in forge (resource needs for each type of gun), More details on hostility mission mechanics, More details on raids, More details on the role of friendly clans, Update on chests, Check on ship list and main data, update if necessary (Naval Action Map stays the detailed reference on that point), Document in A4 instead of A5. Any other need?
  8. Je me souviens d'un [EDR] Aramis de Nes, pas trop actif à l'époque où je l'étais le plus. (Bonjour à Charlemagne!) 😉 Par contre, quand je rentre en bataille, je combat. J'ai coulé sans problème aux côtés des NN (pas sur mon compte principal) ou contre eux. C'est toujours un plaisir !
  9. Next revision, early March, will be full A4 instead A5.
  10. Liaison mission, asked by Admiralty, could be rewarded by permits. And, for sure, shallow privateer fleets. These fleets being impossible to be tagged by 5th rates and above, and composed of 6 elite shallow ships. Disabled in PZ (might be difficult to code).
  11. According to that link, (in French, sorry) https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_de_36_livres 36 lbs French guns had, per gun: 60 balls, 10 chains (2x24 lbs barred), 4 grapes.
  12. Don't be negative. 🙂 After renaming the ship in a less generic name, her characteristics could be adapted more carefully, taking into account the real ship chosen. So, don't just propose a ship name, but when possible add which strong and weak characteristics should be raised up. I would think in Vanguard, with increased turn rate.
  13. (*) Hubert Le Loup de Beaulieu is one of my favourite French captains. Aging cousin of the young Louis Garneray, he was in command of the French frigate La Forte. Because of his age, he would soon receive command of a Ship of the Line, boring ship in which usually nothing happens. He made the following observation: the best gift that God can give to a man in this condition is a 24-pound ball in the chest. And God answered to this prayer on his next cruise back to France, when La Forte met HMS Sybille. (God was obliged to use a 18 pound ball, because 24 pounds were not available in this area in the Royal Navy frigates). HMS Sybille could be a great addition too. 😉
  14. If this topic is for suggestions for future DLC's: A Dhow (2 mast "xebec", with weaker armament and crew, and bigger hull). A lugger (might be a trader with improved fishing capabilities and reduced sailing crew because sails can be operated from decks in luggers). A DLC like Admiralty Connections, which would give 4 more outposts ("East India Connection"). 😃 French frigate L'Egyptienne (50 guns, 30 x 24lbs + 20 x 8lbs, that can be replaced by 9pd). Can be preferably called "La Forte", which is mentioned in books written by Louis Garneray who sailed in her, under command of Hubert Le Loup de Beaulieu. (*) Hébé Class frigate (26 x 18lbs + 8 x 8lbs).
  15. Thanks for the comment. This point will be clarified in next revision (2). In great lines, the clan of the player who takes the hostility mission is the one who will earn hostility points. Even if a single player of this clan participates to hostility fights and 9 players of another clan helps. These 9 players don't need to belong to friendly clans of attackers. (1) Hostility can raise only in the PB timer defined by defenders. Points are added at the moment when all attackers leave the hostility mission. If the last attacker leaves out of the PB timer, no point will be added. Port Battle will be set 24 hours after hostility reaches 100%. (1) The role of the friendly clan list, in crafting and in RVR, also needs to be more detailed in the guide. (2) Next revision of the guide will probably be uploaded beginning of March .
  16. Another tiny ship battle (video shortened to 2 mins)
  17. OK, thanks. Updating Naval Action user guide. 🙂
  18. To all... If Prussians stop RVR, they will have more time for PVP... We will soon hear some whiners here! 😅😂😀😃😄😆
  19. Brits can go to Spain capital waters from Xpua or Tantun, Russians from Contoy and all others from Tumbado. Closing Mantua will not be a fundamental change, but if this helps...
  20. There will be no war until the result of the war will be predictable? 😞 At least, thanks, nice to know it... What would you do if Russia decides to attack Spain from Great Corn?
  21. I like this declaration. Not because I think that the "ministers" who sign the chart fear a conflict on the War Server, but simply because this could, at last, stop the war by delegation between Sweden and Russia (the two strongest factions at the moment, the two really worthy adversaries). What are we seeing at the moment? Russia attacking Spain instead of Sweden, Sweden attacking Great Britain instead of Russia. (LOL). Sweden sending ultimatums to Great Britain to prevent them to attack Spain, and ultimatums to Prussia for protecting Verenigde Provinciën, but never sending ultimatums to Russia. Or an ultimatum sent by Russia to protect Prussia (both are attacking VP, no?) So, Denmark/Norge, France, Great Britain, Spain, United States, Verenigde Provinciën, Pirates, Poland and Prussia need authorisations from Russia and/or Sweden to fight each others... I'd better like to see Sweden fighting Russia than wars per delegation. And other nations "allowed" to fight, at least in screen, without having the Damocles Sword on them: "If you take any action, we will stop the war against the real opponent and we will take your crafting ports, officially for the fun, but in fact because we like fighting when victory cannot be contested."
