Thanks York! OK... i was kidding a bit with the topics title. Of cause Sauerkraut will not save this game. But my suggestion is ment serious. Did u read the historic background?

Dear Devs! We have 3 usables for our ships... missing the 4th one. U forgot The Sauerkraut! Famous Captain James Cook used it and brought his Expeditions to success. Instead of Rum SK should be in hold to recover from crew losses. The cabbage has to be farmed with a new building. In future Rum could be used to buff morale and influence some skills positive and some negative, such as the way the different alcoholic upgrades do it permanent. Rum or other alcs could do it with timer. Here u find the historic background: https://modernfarmer.com/2014/04/magical-sour-cabbage-sauerkraut-helped-save-age-sail/

Steam is down again since nearly two hours now no login to NA possible. Why use Steam ???????

Ich liebe Rollenspiel dieser Art!!! Schade, dass es keinen RP Server gibt, mit gleichgesinnten Spielern, die die Sprache des 18./19. Jahrh. Pflegen. Die NICHT alles abschlachten was das Spiel erlaubt nur um des Abschlachtens wegen ... und das möglichst mit Schiffen die nix kosten, Geld was man nicht mühsam verdienen muss und mit möglichst wenig Materialaufwand. Ich bin Preuße geblieben und bleibe es aus den selben Gründen. Ich vermisse einige Alte Kameraden, aber ich bin nun mal Preuße ... Ich wünsche den LAMAS auf jedenfall möglichst viel Spaß am Spiel, viele Erfolge und Einklang im Clan! Beste Grüße an Alte Kameraden im Exil.

Die Frage ist auch, wie will man als führender Großclan in einer kleinen Nation verhindern, dass viele kleine Splitterclans einfach ihr Ding machen und langfristig angelegte RvR Strategien durch ihr Querschießen durchkreuzen und/ oder verraten. Das wirst du immer wieder aufs Neue erleben, sobald du die Führung einer Nation beanspruchst.... Es sind zu viele Egomanen unterwegs. Das Ideal eines RvR Clans mit lauter Elite-Spielern ist auch kaum zu realisieren. Je erfolgreicher ein Spieler im PvP und RvR ist, desto mehr steigt in ihm der Führungsanspruch. So ein Spieler ordnet sich auf Dauer nicht gern unter. Er entwickelt seine eigenen Ideen über Clanführung und Strategien. Früher oder später entstehen daraus Konflikte, es findet Grüppchenbildung im Clan statt und letztlich zerfällt der Clan ...

Hi Cid, das mit den Wortgefechten ist mir passiert, als ich die momentane Kleinstaaterei in Preußen, zugegeben etwas provokant, im Preußen Chat kritisiert habe und damit die Bereitschaft ausgelotet habe, die vielen kleinen Clans zu einem großen Clan zu verneinen, um genau das zu schaffen, was du hier mit viel Idealismus vorschlägst. Mit dem Krake Flagg voran, schlug mir schnell der blanke Hass entgegen, als ob ich der leibhaftige Cid bin. Mit den verbliebenen Preußen ist das scheinbar nicht zu machen und die Exilpreussen, welche einen schlagkräftigen Großclan suchen (ohne Führung die das CWH als SB Laden betrachtet), sind in alle Winde verstreut. Vom Prinzip finde ich dein Ziel OK ... allerdings bin ich mit den vielen Erfahrungen der Vergangenheit etwas desillusioniert. Wünsche Dir viel Erfolg ... aber bitte nicht Russe werden...

Yes, i know as i mentioned. But i think the baby has got a wrong name. Its not a shipyard. Its an arsenal or depot. So many players want the same. Devs always have to be reminded 😉 And i didn't see any Devs statement on that issue. Please Devs ... do you seriously think about that????

Please Devs, give us Clan Arsenals which have space for 30 vessels! So a Clan could deposit an Alert Task Force of ready equipped ships to be given out to currently present players in case of clan combat purposes. After service at sea the surviving ships are given back to Arsenal, get repaired and ship builders have overview of how many lost ships have to be replaced. I know this is asked for since years, but now it could be a matter of town development. Lets grind and spend some more stoneblocks, tools and doubs on it. Please Devs let us have an answer and your idears on that. With best regards

Please Devs, give me freedom to give names to my ships - so i can see in my list what kind of ship, which bulidt and so on it is. Helps to find me faster and is a lit more Realism. But you should be able to rename a ship if u capture ore buy one from another player.

HANSA ist und bleibt ein deutschsprachiger Clan in dem sich jede Art von Spielertyp zuhause fühlen kann, solange er ein Stück weit, gemessen an seinen persönlichen Möglichkeiten und Fähigkeiten, in die Clan-Gemeinschaft einbringt ... wer gibt, dem wird gegeben.

Herzlich willkommen bei Preussens HANSA!😉

Three Spanisch Diegos in typical historic Balearean clothing!🤩

Can somebody tell me the Prussian Ranks with exact writing please? Thank You in forward!

Dear Dev's Please install a map link in Delivery Missions Window under the port name of destination, so that the map will pop up showing the the harbour where the goods and persons have to be shiped to. That will save typing "M", clic on Ports and County search, typing the name of the destinated port, click on it when found and all the clicks to close Map. In the name of comfort please think about that. Thanks for reading!

Dear Devs! May i suggest just a very slightly change in OW combat news? Just replace the word "player" by the ship class of the boarded or sank ship and also show the ship class the winning player was in. It might have two effects: 1. The message will appear a little more like gossip a seaman pics up in habours tavern or information given to a Capt'n by the Admirality. 2. Might be a little protection for the weaker player, cause the hunter will think about his reputation and image on the server. He decides to be known as a trader killer and seal clubber or a hero of the seas sinking ships stronger than his own ... Examples: "FGT2junkyass on Endymion sank British Basic Cutter near Belize" "Charles Longsword on Pirate Frigate sank Spanish Bellona near La Habana" By the way ... is somebody feeling the same i feel if you see the players name in the 1st exampla?. Last pollish of this game should include more dicipline in characters names please! This is an open word sand box game acting in 18th century and not a rap music contest. Please give name rules fitting to the historic background we are playing in! Every Name should be checked and confirmed by the Admins like it is in many other Multiplayer Online Games! Please think about. Best Regards

Ich bin Deutscher in Diensten seiner Majestät Georg d. III. Wilhelm Friedrich von Hannover, König von Großbritanien und Irland als GNF-Admiral für Schiffbau und Flottenentwicklung. Ich diene zwar nicht bei den Preußen, habe naturgemäß und aus sprachlichen Gründen aber nichts gegen sie. Ich würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Preußen und Großbritannien enger zusammen arbeiten würden. Ich persönlich würde einen Preußischen Spieler nicht angreifen, wurde auch selten von einem Angegriffen, bzw. noch nie von einem versenkt.... Schön wäre wenn ALLE deutschsprachigen Spieler zusammen für eine Deutsche Nation kämpfen würden ... ich denke, dann würde die Karte anders aussehen 😉 Finde es bescheuert, wenn sich zwei Deutsche Clans verschiedener Nationen bekämpfen, teilweise aus persönlichen Abneigungen zweier Clanführer gegeneinander ...

You will get what you want ... be happy!

Imagine this server one future day would have the population it is build for (2000 i guess). There will be an inflation of ships and you won't see a drop of water between Havanna and Kingston. U will cross the Gulf by walking from deck to deck in dry shoes.

The items are not stupid! They are things! But players who don't love the details of ship building and the necessary parts used to are stupid and not worth to own a ship bigger than a basic cutter. Ship building needs very experiencend experts! This is an Open World - no pure pvp arena. That means there must be speciallist expert players who like to invest a lot of time in crafting to be able to build excellent vessels. If someone who likes to be for 100% in battles there may NO possibility to build his own ships! And between buying a ship in shop and using it should be at least a real time week of delivery time. In History there haven't been Captains who just build a First Rate so just by the way between sailing in, go 5 seconds to workshop, and sail out. An Open world is dying a more and more. Ship building should be a simulation game in the game. Ships must be rare stuff, especially first rates! Now they are going to be easy to get like a bubblegum from an automat. The game is loosing! PvP'es won again over the Devs threatning with and speaking about loosing players base if they don't jump through their burning tire ... This video shows, why i love the ship bulding and hoped it will be more detailled in the future. Now we get the oposit ...

What's up devs? 20 - 30 days are nearly over. Can't wait the changes. Please give us information as things are now.

Hello Felix! Your tool is getting better and better - thank you Felix Victor! But i found a little mistake. In the data-field the sign "-" (minus) is shown on the wrong coordinate. In this case it has to be -359k / 436k Freundliche Grüße Peter P.

And here another good example how Spaniards realy where in there snobbish outfits and perfumed arrogant behaviour - eternal loosers 😉 ... and best greetings to our Pirate friends - have fun!

No, no ... i see another Spanish player (name is better not said) seams to be the reincarnation of El Supremo, as you can see next. By the way, in this Vid you can also see what is to be done with the French as an ally of the Spaniards.

This Video shows again the ruthlessnes ot the Spaniards ... British Sailors ... let's stay Gentlemen of the Seas and don't let us down to the same low level of communication and flaming language like Alucard (Son of Dracula)!

Don't want to defend the ruthless deeds of this mega super duper asshole .... BUT ... don't let us forget this is an open world sandbox game. Everything the engine provides can be done but nothing has to be done. The whole game is a game of killing, robbery and destruction of other players "lifes", ships, money and goods. Nations are at war with each other ... anybody against everybody. Some players slip into roles of very bad asses or heroes ... depending on the point of view. They use to do espionage with alts, they sneak into clans officer ranks to do sabotage and make mischief nationwide ... all like in real life. Other players kill helpless traders and new born baby players all day long ... that's life in NA. In my opinion having alts is the biggest problem in this game but it is money for games labs and so they won't do anything against it ...

Felix, ich love this tool. I'm dreaming of another feature on this great tool. Background is that every Admirality in the world is recording ship losses in a list and marking them with needles/dots in the maps. My suggestion is to mark the x/z positions of every sunk ship, of the last 24 h since server restart, with a colored dot according to a trader or warship. By going mouse over u will see little more information. Type and nation of sunk ship as well as nation, type of the winning ship and it's players name. It will give nearly the same information as existing combat news give but visually on one sight. Additionaly there should be a summary of all times, ship losses list, for the history books. This will provide facts for the endless discussions about ganking newbies and slaughtering helpless traders. It will give an overview of combat activities in the careebean as a commanding officer picks up from every harbour pubs gossip, traders reports up to the war room briefings of the admiralty. Further more it will open a competition between players in ruthlessness or honourible knighthood on the seas. Where do u want to find yourself on the list .... ?
