@Surcouf C'est génial de nous faire partager ça !!!
Vous parlez un long moment de l'opération de muder , c'est-à-dire de "faire passer l’antenne d’une voile d’un côté à l’autre du mât." Et tu écris à ce sujet : "Mais généralement, la voile est basculée en mettent l'antenne presque a l'horizontale pour le portant et ramenée dans l'axe pour le près. On ne touche pas virement aux bastaques. Mais c'est faisable."
Par contre, sauf erreur de ma part, vous n'envisagez pas la manoeuvre qui consiste à faire basculer l'antenne d'une voile latine à l'horizontale au largue et vent arrière et que j'ai pu voir dans les sources suivantes (dont je ne connais pas la valeur) :
http://www.copainsdespointus.com/_media/utilisation-voile-latine.pdf
http://voilelatinesete.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/navigation-Vence.pdf
http://voilelatinesete.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/manuel_ecole2.pdf
comme on peut le voir là, entourer en rouge :
C'est une manoeuvre qui ne parait pas indispensable (on ne la voit pas dans les videos) mais qui semble se faire, peut-être pour un meilleur 'rendement'.
Ces sources ont peut-être tout faux ou sont inexploitables pour un chebec (ou j'ai mal compris).
Une opinion ? 🙂

Cool ! 🙂
Au fait, la pauv' Galeotta est toujours en manque de financement ! Seulement 3% des fonds nécessaires récoltés...

Tu veux pas plutôt me renseigner sur la gestion des voiles d'un xebec à trois mats au largue et vent arrière, notamment en combat ? 🙂
Est-ce qu'on peut manoeuvrer à orse longue comme ça (l'antenne se rapproche de l'horizontale) ?
Ou est-ce qu'on reste à orse courte ? C'est possible à toutes les allures. Ça transforme la voile latine en quasi voile aurique. Et le jeu ne modélise que cette manoeuvre :
La pratique de l'orse longue ajouterait une belle animation au jeu !!!

If War server keeps the non-OW RoE and you guys get duels I'm switching over. (I fear it would be a mostly fake feature as people aren't as brave as you lead yourselves to believe when faced with possible loss of pixels/grind-time.)
I guess the last thing players on the PvE server actually need would be newcomers calling them 'brave' or 'coward' or whatever. 😉
btw (and without connection) does 'avoiding negative impact on the peaceful pve atmosphere' mean not adding content, just like when you avoid movements to let someone sleep ? 🙂

Thank you for the proposal.
There are no plans to bring combat PvP to peace server. Peace server is friendly and helpful. Any form of conflict will ruin the relaxing and tranquil experience.optional AI aggressiveness wouldn't 'ruin the relaxing and tranquil experience' of a kind of players while pleasing another.
But I guess it is also a matter of dev priorities.

Add missions (hunt and search and destroy, challenge, kill...) reserved for 9-pdr(g) / 32-pdr(c) ships (that currently belong to two separate in-game rates, 6th and 5th) : Niagara, LRQ, Hercules, Cerberus, Renommée, Pandora, Surprise.

No I can not do anything in my Snow or Nbrig, those were old days. But those ships are like 7th rate, that weak, anyway hp and broadside weight is above, read again.
I don't need to read anything to know that a 6-pdr ship (Navy Brig, 18 guns) < 9-pdr ship (LRQ, 24 guns). But you need to understand that one can't nerf a 9-pdr ship to make her a 6-pdr ship.

Le Req (..) strongest ship of 6th rates
Once again, LRQ shouldn't be considered in game as the strongest 6th rate but as the second weakest of the 9-pdr ships (Niagara, LRQ, Cerberus, Renommée, Pandora, Surprise) with the 'best/easiest' sailing profile (not being a square-rigger).
On 3/15/2019 at 7:52 PM, Baptiste Gallouédec said:remove carro options for le requin, case close
Case close ? You mean giving LRQ her rigorously historical armament, right ? And giving up the current in-game simple rule : 'any 9-pdr ship also gets 32-pdr carro and vice-versa'. That means a lot of mess among the armament of various in-game ships as it would also mean to give them their historical armament too, that is removing carro on La Renommée, the Cerberus, L'Hermione, etc. + removing guns on Niagara, etc. + giving Prince de Neuchâtel mainly 12-pdr carro + etc... It is like opening the Pandora box. I guess it needs a lot of thinking before to see if it is actually a good thing. Moreover, would ships without carro be useful in NA ?
As for making LRQ a 5th rate ? Would she be a good competitor to the Endymion and her 58 x 32-pdr (carro) + higher hp ?
A new 9-pdr competitor to LRG would help, but she'd certainly be a square-rigger...
A new rating system would too.

@LeBoiteux do not forget rate systems effects skillbooks.
6-7th rate skill books can be much stronger than 4-5th rate skillbooks.
All we have to do is to replace 6-7th rate skill books and 4-5th rate ones with :
- 4 to 6 pdr ship skill books
- 9-pdr ship skill books (from the Niagara up to the Surprise)
- 12 to 24-pdr frigate skill books

so on a Rvr/Port Battle scale -- Would you ever bring a fleet of 6pd shallow ships against a 9pd shallow fleet in a port battle? would you ever bring any of them?
OW pvp? with the shallow 5th rates, with the 2 DLCs, I think the 6pd 6th rates are in the worst shape balance wise. almost every player I know has tried to just skip them, because we'll never use them except to grind to the next rank for more crew - to crew bigger ships.
I'd prefer the ships be used instead of left in the dust because "we can be in bigger ships now." This is the main issue for a lot of people - Ship stats and BR still lend to always trying to get the bigger ship.
I'm ok with bigger ships being more powerful, but that should not make a smaller ship useless.
I say the Rate system is useless to classify ships in NA. There must be separate gameplay (PB/shallows-areas/missions/etc). for 6-pdrs and for 9-pdrs, iiif one wants to give a chance to 6th Rates. But who sail 6th Rates btw, huh ?

25 minutes ago, Teutonic said:
the 6th rate line up really has some mega problems with balance and permit requirement in my opinion.
and the fact that a requin has the 2nd highest HPs AND the highest broadside weight AND a bonkers sailing profile - Why would you ever craft a 6th rate that is behind a permit :P.
EDIT: and you didn't even mention the Navy-brig/Brig - which would be close competitors against the mercury. Although, with the ships you chose I can tell there is no contest for them :(.
Reasoning in terms of '6th Rate' (ie range of number of guns without taking into account the caliber/pdr) is useless in NA.
Distinguish between :
- ships with 4/6-pdr guns or 12/24-pdr carro on one side
- ships with with 9-pdr guns or 32-pdr carro on the other
As for LRQ sailing model, she's not a square-rigger... Plus it can be fine-tuned.
Permits is another matter.
-
In game :
- ships that carried 9-pdr guns IRL (such as LRQ) can also carry 32-pdr carro in game
- ships that carried 32-pdr carro IRL (such as the Niagara) can also carry 9-pdr guns in game
When watching NA shallow water lineup from the Lynx to the Surprise, a gap can be seen between the Niagara and LRQ, two ships that both carry 9-pdr guns or 32-pdr carro but don't have the same number of guns : USS Niagara (20 guns) and Le Requin (24 guns), creating a difference in broadside weight : 320 pd vs 384 pd (with carro).
My suggestion : adding a ship with an in-between broadside weight.
Here are 8 examples from NA shipyard. Don't hesitate to add more / correct me.

Speaking of which, they and the Thais - class had a ridiculous broadside weight for their size, 332 pounds for the former and 327 for the latter.
And they didn´t look bad, either (that´s a draught for the Thais-class Comet)
