Question for those confused, if they own the port just south and could easily flip the port fight the pb most likely win and kill the nation as I keep reading. How is it so detrimental that their US clan takes a minor county Port that touches their already claim3d territory. I just don’t see how this is actually a big deal or even a small deal? Especially since they can’t use the port to generate hostility on anything. Hell even coming out of ays it’s all their own ports to attack. Didn’t they help the nation by painting another flag in the red white and murican blue? Again from the outside looking in I’m confused how this is even and issue within the us nation? You still have to lose a port before they could lose that port, they had the entire county bordering anyway and at worse you’re looking at a 5 minute sail difference. And isn’t there already us clans trying to make deals with vco or uws to open a port in exchange of getting a pass for themselves? That’s the scuttlebutt around npg. sorry for any typos using my iPad to respond is annoying

Yes we went heavy the brits I guess didn’t have the crew or ships for a heavy fleet. Going heavy was the only way we were going to possibly get through the screeners and it helped us do that. The wind was tough for majority and the fact that they were a faster fleet had it be a close port battle for a long time. They also kept pretty good line discipline good fight brits hats off to you.

He was trying to help screen us out, and the brits tagged him by mistake. There was brits to the horizon tonight, amazing showing. The port battle was fantastic and a bit dicey early on. We joined from the east and tried to avoid a fort, with a nice beam wind. Only to have the wind turn in our face first change, and then second change turn right back again. They got up to a nice 700 point lead before we could get the heavier boats brawling in the circles. Once that was achieved the fight swung back into our favor for a Dutch victory. dutch pb commander was @King of Crowns unsure on the British side

Even if they do it is not that difficult to do. Just being efficient taking what is around your area you can do alot of it AFK, im cooking dinner and responding to this post is more work then a delivery mission. The issue is they are really hollow overall, you can just surrender and move on, the boats are easy to replace and because of this, there is actually 0 impact on the game, not paying taxes not having to fight and survive.

I would love to see the missions stay the same, with tax added , the regular trading buffed as a secondary. I prefer the old trading method personally there was tons of risk/reward. Like doing Furniture treasure fleets into KPR and the likes. The missions while they are super nice to not have investments and stuff and to get people going to really random ports, is all reward no risk. That is fine because it generates more traffic across the map versus trading lanes and hubs and the rest of the map being largely desolate. I just want to see taxes so that exactly like old trading, you were actually participating in the economy. Allowing traders to come naturally while having to weigh the options of sink the traders, or allowing them to prosper and thus your ports to prosper was a nice thing to consider.

Dont forget the horde of basic cutters. Even easier then tlynx ITS FREE! Bring back trading bring back tax income

Yea just something needs to be done with trading. For me I would just like to see ports get tax income from them.

Yea at the very least ports should tax the turn ins, That way there is money being added into the clan warehouse for those that control ports as well as an incentive to let trade ships complete trade runs around your ports.

SURPRISE lol.

Na none of us did, do you see it?

Yea I was the creator, it is just no longer on the clan management window like it used to be.

Okay, I wasnt trying to set the investments and last time i set timers pre release it was in the clan tab 😢 Thanks Redii

Hey guys, was attempting to use town managment and there was no option for it in the clan. I am creator of the clan, tried it at sea, in nationally owned port and neutral port. I have relogged and still nothing. Ink/Admin I can provide Screenshots in PM if you want, I have also hit F11 on the issue

So I remember this happening quite well as I was on the GB side. The Armed guys we had didn’t have to do the sail to Georgetown as we were lucky enough to have the boats pre positioned there from within the clan. Being in comms when the battle was caught and listening to it, was mighty brutal. The only clarification is the fact that pavel was important boat because of wipe. I know at the time myself all of armed was well stocked with firsts and same for vco and most of the GB nation in Salamanca harbor at the time, was just a fact that the pb fleet of smaller weight was caught. Also black was scary at the time with all their lineships running around. my favorite story is actually trying to survive not a true gank as we had more ships but king tanking me and my newer friends outside carta, where my own ally surprise sunk me as me and him were trying to save our fatty and agy so we could continue to level. My allies response was well you both look the same so I was just shooting! I’ll see if @King of Crowns has the screenshot

No Eagles fans?!? Sir I do believe that affront to my honor is akin to a declaration of war! @King of Crowns we cannot allow this to stand!

Science bitch! Lol and hey now, that wasn’t a gank it was an express deliver service to port of destination!

I heard we are all joining Russia? Cant get zerged if you are part of the zerg! DA COMRADES!

Easy solution, no Eu times at all, this entire thing takes place in the carribean play it by carribean times making it much closer to us est then all! Joy and happiness for everyone then cause realism! Oh wait wait it’s a video game with people all over the world, the Russians took kids from us during our prime time no crying about timers and good in them. We got beat and they were relentless see what happens when you want to do it? In the mean time. if you like it you shoulda put a timer on it. And timers are home with only having to secure the capital to secure the region. Stop crying and fight the game. If it doesn’t have a timer and get flipped by someone at a different time then you’re playing clearly you didn’t care enough to hold the port, it’s a fact of life empires get large and because of that vulnerable. Same thing in game with having to maintain timers. brief edit, there is always this thing called diplomacy when you can try to work with a clan not In your time zone to achieve what is needed, i k ow WO paid havoc back when they were Dutch to help with north inlet and worked with the Prussians back when banished was running the show to have Eu representation when needed. These same nations complaining can try to you know, talk to these other timezones instead of looking down on them to get something done go they can’t be be bothered getting their asses out of bed on a weekend.

Uhh please don’t show how I control so many alts aster. That was top secret.

Well I still love you beautiful

Why is it tragic? Same exact way we took the SA as the last time. We still got about 20 into the fight when those of us tagged hopped on alts. Though fighting it on Christian with no books or upgrades and like 2 hull and sail cycles. Was a good fun fight o7 America. screening is just free content for others, it’s why I show up for screening.

It was considering most of the fleet had to join from in between San Mateo and San Agustin because of screeners.

You are sitting on the forums, adopting this woe is me mentality and spamming everyday multiple times false accusations against 2 seperate clans. Never ONCE has the US nation attempted to attack. The posts have grated on everyones patience so much that all sympathy the nation had was squandered. The other thing is this assumption that the nation is being unfairly picked on and would normally be exceptionally safe. It is only 2 jumps out of a free port till you are breaching the capitals of the east coast. The last thing is we were forced into this situation not by the United States, but rather by the game. SA has been our capital for the last year for our clan, that means the work that went into retaking the port and ship losses was FAR less then the required work to move the assests out of the port. Even today after taking the port I have 6 boats that have been just rotting in the port. If there is a full assest wipe as well as saved ports or during release will be the ONLY time the frontline mechanic can be properly tested. You have to see what the buzz coming out of Shroud will be like, people wont be able to have line ships pre posted in various docks in free ports to allow nations to just super rapidly take multiple ports. People will have to level up as well as just do these various things in smaller boats. Last but not least, you wont have mad dashes where nations just cap out ports in the first week of the patch and replace entire fleets. The overall salt while fun is being spammed to much on various posts, lets just create a US salt thread, and keep it contained since you cannot seem to grasp this is still testing AS WELL AS not a realistic outlook on what the game will be atm. When release happens (i cant speak for the other damaged party in this VCO) I know WO will have to secure our ship building, do missions and level up to use boats meaning yes the East Coast MIGHT be safer for a time. That still doesnt mean that especially with diplomacy to get possible port swap, you cant conquer up to Sav in less then a weeks time with only doing a single PB a day.

Looks like some fun battles. When did you leave Havoc?

Personally I would love to have had a fight at PaP. Empty PB's other then screwing around is mind numbing. @Sir Texas Sir You complain about hiding behind timers for which are set when we actually play, yet sav hides its timer. Ontop of all this you guys have been discussing where to hide the SA timer so that we cant respond and possibly take your port from you. You need to look inward to smooth it over with the sour sports inside your own government after the whole "Russia fiasco" as it was put. In the meantime I appreciate the information they shared. To the last point of your whining that we are to far away to affect anything on the east coast. You do realize that its a fairly easy jump from shroud (with or without diplomacy) to Ays and then up the coast. 2 PBs till your able to take hostility on Ays. With either determination, a bit of luck, or diplomacy you could be change the map pixels up to sav inside of 1 week. Also your own senior leadership is paying dubloons to sink your President. I am going to need you to go ahead and have them stop making lucrative offers to us, and instead just donate to upgrading our port. Thanks
