Yet luck is pretty much a superstitious thing to begin with. What's important to note here is that if 'luck' is incorporated into the game, then you can safely incorporate shooting fireballs from your eyes and being able to buy voodoo dolls that give you hypersonic speed and let your ship dodge cannons. I might be exaggerating a little, but as far as I've understood, Naval Action isn't really aiming for the stereotypical "MMO". Just reading "magic skills" here made me shiver.
With all due respect, DangerMonkey, don't you think that the game would be much better off without trivial and, let's be honest, unrealistic things like luck?
I think it would be much more entertaining to know that a player that has started playing 1 hour ago has the SAME chance to get into a storm than a player that's been playing the game for over 1000 hours. What do you think? It puts your skills to the test, whether you're new or an old sea dog, plus it brings more unpredictability to the game. I think THAT is the kind of flavor we should be pouring on here.
