  1. Great news Dev Team! You guys rock! I feel this will also help replayability, especially for us helping with the testing! Although super fun the first time around, replaying some of these longer battles seems like a daunting task when time is limited.
  2. I agree with OP to an extent.. Limited amphibious operations would be a nice touch but big land battles tend to dominate the time spent playing this game. For example I just finished the Landing on Nassau last night. It took me upwards of 2 hours where I lost most of my men and only won by bypassing the final choke point by sea. This resulted in massive casualties on both sides. This in no way represented anything historical. The real battle consisted of ~250 Americans vs ~110 English militia. The English simply fired their cannons once and loaded the gunpowder stores into their ships and left the scene. 0 casualties I do understand this game must scale to keep things balanced but turning minor skirmishes into bloodbaths is not the way IMO.
  3. This mission seems to have gotten harder in the new patch, I came in with a Hermione and sloop of war (plus phase 2 transports) and I'm facing 4 Frigates and the large troopship (that doesn't sink) joins the pursuit as well (with over 500 crew). Guess I'll just have to lead the frigate squadron away and then move the transports through.
  4. Although I prefer the ground combat in "total war", I have high hopes for this game. Like the OP, I too am a Virginian with extensive knowledge of revolutionary war era technology. I really hope this game (the american campaign) can incorporate state navies and the original 13 Continental navy frigates. It would seem it the plan to leap to the 1797 re-establishment Navy (USS Constitution, etc) and ignore the Continental navy altogether. If the game dev's would like, I would be more than happy to lay out all of the current information available on the Continental Navy including line drawings and service history in a dedicated thread.
  5. good job on this man! Something about an englishman's narration makes it all the better! I like the narrative license you are taking with this!
  6. I somehow made it through this mission.. a timer for contested objectives would be helpful. I also captured on of the enemy ships and it was not in the harbor after the mission 😕
