I can't really vote because I think some of these ideas are a bit too far down the line to be thought about this early. There are so many core mechanics that need to be finished first before stuff like whaling and drunk crews. Just my opinion.

Yup, best off using the image url way, much more customizable.

Some 'Angle' or 'Angles' is also 'Angel' or 'Angels'. Might confuse some people.

Maybe hes a jedi?

Or allow more keys to be bound or a "Shift + A" system. Freely rebindable keys would really allow this though and solve 98% of complaints about keys and combos.

Here you go

The American 1sts/2nds are well outside of the timeline. Which calls into question making them a playable 'major power' when they had minuscule naval strength and were blockaded quite entirely in 1815. France, Spain, England, the Dutch, Russia, all had times with massive fleets or times when they were true naval powers, but America? Not until well past the games timeline. Maybe the Spanish American War?

Yay, this has been needed.

Its magic! Seriously though, click beside the first photo and then put in the image URL.

The Busty Wench

Is it the Valiant or Centy? If its the centy it is based off of the HMS Centurion (1732) if its the Lion, well, that is the Centy If it is the Val it is based off the Ingermanland (1715) Just keep in mind a lot of the ships were 'based on' in POTBS and not built to exacting historical specs.

Very pretty looking.

Makes GPS look like witchcraft lol. I was always amazed at the skill of navigators back then, but then again it was their life's trade and work.

Have a check on this for a broad view http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/2070-poll-where-are-you-from/

Well in most arena games you have to kill everything to win or capture points on a map. DCs are a different matter, and need to be dealt with. But ending the game early serves no real purpose other than convenience for those too far away to do anything or not interested in chasing that lone frigate. While it could be a good system there are SO many other things that need the devs attention (chat, lobby stuff, open world. Etc etc etc) that in the end a system like this is a would be nice moment but exactly that, a moment.

Yea its been that way for months. Proper chat is in the works though apparently.

Sorry to step into the Russian forums typing in English but I want to mention something that is a growing trend in video games out here in the West and sadly mostly the USA. People tend to hate on Russians or Ukrainians or anyone of similar country who speaks in cryllic. It is VERY sad to see but it is becoming a bias of which I hope can be stopped here in the NA community, making it one of the few games with no racial divides that incense flaming. It is in almost every game such as League of Legends, World of Tanks etc, Counter Strike, MMO's etc etc and it is very sad to see but I just want to warn you guys against the inevitable barrage of incoming idiots who will insult you for nothing other than being Russian. Keep your heads up and don't stoop to their level, they are just uncultured asses. Knowing that some other language speakers here or in the game may not have any understanding of English, and thus not understand that they are being insulted, I will do my part and report any racial slurs or prejudice against Russian or any other language speaking people in game. I hope everyone who sees this kind of behavior relays it to the GM's/Devs/Moderators. If anyone could translate this into Russian that would be awesome too.

Prepare to be shouted down. =\

There is indeed, just a matter of them doing it.

There already are. Admin PM's you if your sig is too big in the vertical.

It's time for "The Good Fight Thread" sub forum, a place for videos or heroic descriptions, something stolen form potbs.

I think he means that while your ideas are cool and good a lot of them have been seen here already in various reincarnations.
