Well you brought a fleet of first rates into a 4th rate port.  Shallows you get 6,  6th rate ships.  4th rate ports you get 6 4th rates and 1st rate ports you get 6 1st rates.  That is how it is when you fight a neutral port on PvE so I'm going to assume it's the same.   As for raids no clue what they are going to be like as I keep missing all them as they have been in EU time zone not US for my nation so far, but than that is what most our timers are.  Might try to catch one over the weekend when I can be on if there are any.

Well, if a 4th rate port spam AI 4th rate ships, then do not allow players to enter the battle with more than 4th rate ships. or just do the same as in the battles of hostility, spam the same rate of every players entering the port battle.

wait when they will attack back.. capturing is easy, defending is hard.

Ok good, then we have on the one hand attacks on port by players to an AI with a ridiculous BR (CB), which have no incentive, and on the other hand, AI counterattacks in the style of the battle of Remedios or Belize above published in which we can not do anything to repel.

Wouldn't it be better to do balanced battles in both cases? What clan will want to invest the monstrous amounts of money and materials that ask to improve a captured port if sooner or later they will lose it with an AI attack impossible to defend?

If the problem in PVE is the short number of players, try to reduce the BR value of all ports, and, especially, adjust AI BR to almost maximum in most of cases (ramdomly if you want 75% of BR to 100%?).

Thank for your answer Admin. And fantastic improve to the PVE server.

PVE. Port Battle in Cayo Romano. CB 10000

Total CB of IA 1970 (of 10000).

Is this going to be like this? AI fleets will not be even close to completing the CB? It will be a joke...

Hostility missions are more difficult that port battle right now.

[The 3rd Rate Merchant Ship]

[The 3rd Rate Merchant Ship]

Currently we have in the game merchant ships of 7th (Tr Linx, Tr Cutter), 6th (Tr Snow, Tr Brig), 5th (Le Gros Ventre) and 4th (Indiaman).

But the Spaniards began to use ships of the line for their Indies treasure fleets (Veracruz-Habana-Cadiz, Portobello-Habana-Cadiz) and Manila galleons (Manila-Acapulco) from 1720, with the introduction of new proportions in the construction of vessels dictated by D. Antonio de Gaztañeta, instead of the famous Galleons. These ships were still generally called Galleons of the Indies race or Manila, but were in fact ships of the line. One of the most famous was "Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zaragoza", of the race of Manila (the called Galleon of Manila).

The ship had a capacity of 22 cannons of 18pd in the first battery, 22 guns of 12pd in the second battery, 6 guns of 9pd in the alcazar and two guns of 9pd or carronades of 68pd in the stern. Total 52 guns.

I propose to implement this merchant ship of 3rd Rate:

Ship                                             Battle Rating    Crew    Guns    Broadside Weight    Cargo Capacity    Max Speed    Draught    Rate   Min Crafting Level
Spanish Galleon or "El Pilar"    ?                         460      50          357pd/0pd               6000                      11.30              Deep         3th     35
