Hello, I want to present and expose a theme, that although it seems trivial, it can be of interests for all the players,
since it seems that it is being practiced is being more usual, that is the sabotage of the trade ships, by a different clan of the same faction.
In this case, Spanish faction.
An example of this is what happened on the day, January 18, 2017, at 15:30 (time server). After almost two hours,
navigating and traded in different ports in the north (France ports), returning to the port (Veracruz) to sell the purchased products, suddenly,
I find myself in a battle, where two players of the GOE clan (David Weller and Despeinado), they attack a big AI fleet, and they get me into battle.
It can be casual, if not, because I had been watching them for more than 5min and with the IA fleet,
but they attacked just when they were already within battle radius. I do not have a capture,
since I can not see the target and I did not wait for this action, and more than I usually, I trade in that area.
Below is a screenshot, a few minutes after the start of the battle,
where it is shown that if the two players were going to perform the battle with AI and one escapes from the battle.
Although I give orders to my ships to escape (RETREAT), because the AI fleet is numerous, fast and strong.
Also, they only shot grape. During the battle it is logical that I lose the boats. You see a sunken ship and another captured.
After making some maneuvers to save a ship, blocked the IA ships, I manage to save a ship, and the one that I drove.
The battle result before escaping is like this:
I assume there is a risk in trading and I can be attacked by enemies and lose everything. But this battle, it may be coincidence or not,
I do not know the intentionality that is sought by wanting to get me into battle, knowing that with trade ships, I can not do anything, except lose.
Also, it does not bother me to have lost the ships or merchandise, but if it bothers me, the time inverted, so that later, it is your same nation who attacks you.
I ask the @admin or @Ink, if you can clarify if these actions is fair play or if it is allowed in the game.
